Life From Your Feet's Perspective

Your feet have a direct impact on the rest of your body. Like the foundation of a house, your feet support the weight of everything above them. When a small problem develops in your feet, a subtle change in the way you walk will cause a chain reaction of adjustments in your posture and walking mechanics. These changes can put stress on joints higher up in your body and lead to more serious problems. Poor foot function and alignment may be contributing to pain in your feet, knees, hip or back. Custom orthotics help balance your feet and reduce pain by enhancing your body's natural movements.

I have found taping you feet with athletic tape in a figure 8 fasion is a fantastic and inexpensive way of finding out if orthotics will help a patient. Those that really need orthotics will notice how much better their adjustments hold!
