The present invention relates to a method and a device for preventing injuries resulting from overloading the plantar surface of an individual during an intense physical activity such as locomotion, jumping or the like. More specifically, the invention relates to a biofeedback interface to be interposed between the plantar surface and the ground surface. The biofeedback interface functions to substantially enhance the specific unpleasant sensations perceived by the individual during heavy plantar surface loading (locomotion and jumping) which are required to produce an enhanced protective behavioral response; the behavior avoids the unpleasant sensation, which in turn, decreases the loading with a reduction in the risk of physical injury.
