Our home of 25 years has seen five generations come and go. The sturdy structure carries cherished memories, laughter, and relatedness. Such is LAAF’s vision – Live Active and Agony Free. LAAF insoles connect you, your children, your parents, grandparents, and great grandparents, over a lifetime of relatedness that enhances physical activity, health, and longevity [1].
Gagné and Deci assert that three pillars support intrinsic motivation and psychological well-being: autonomy, competence, and relatedness [2]. Autonomy, According to Gagné and Deci, means having the right to act with a sense of volition and having the experience of choice. Competence was once viewed as having a deep fund of medical knowledge and exercising clinical judgment appropriately with each patient. Relatedness is the psychological feeling that one belongs, has interpersonal attachments, and is connected to the social community.
Restructuring of the healthcare system
Restructuring of the healthcare system has impinged all three. LAAF aspires to provide our users with all three pillars, also LAAF empowers you with the autonomy to Own, Choose, and Act on personalized data from your feet.
