Catherine Hobbs, a registered podiatrist for 40 years was working with a premier league football club. Several players were suffering with painful pressure lesions from wearing tight football boots. Catherine soon realised the traditional methods were not fit for purpose and started to research alternative methods. After years of research and trials, Catherine found that she could cushion the foot from the inside to alleviate pain. Thus, Curacorn® was born.
