It started with a simple question: Why do we accept foot pain as normal?
In 2021, our founder Emma Rodriguez was working 14-hour shifts as an ER nurse. Every day, she'd come home with aching feet, swollen ankles, and the kind of pain that makes you dread tomorrow before today is even over.
She tried everything — expensive orthopedic shoes, generic insoles from drugstores, ice baths, compression wraps. Nothing worked long-term. The products were either uncomfortable, ineffective, or ridiculously overpriced.
Emma partnered with podiatrist Dr. Michael Chen and biomechanical engineer Sofia Martinez to create something different: foot care products that actually work, without the premium markup.
After 18 months of research, testing, and countless prototypes, the first Blissoles Massage Insole was ready. Emma wore them during a 16-hour shift. For the first time in years, she came home without pain.
She knew she had to share this with the world.
Today, over 50,000 people have experienced the Blissoles difference. And we're just getting started.
