What Are Your Shoes Saying About You?

If your shoes could talk- are you rolling in or out - and what does that mean.
Your shoes can tell a lot about how you are moving and can contain clues about what might happen in the future.

Here’s some things you can look for in your shoes

Plantar Fasciitis-What Is It 

Do you have painful heels?
Plantar fasciitis is one of the most common causes of heel pain. It is an irritation of the plantar fascia -- the structure that runs from the heel to the ball of the foot. 

In this free pdf we explain the common causes and how you can start treating it at home.
What to do about Tight Calves

If you have ever been to see a physio for ankle or foot problems you may have experienced the dreaded calf massage.
Patients often ask--why are my calves so tight? 

There are a number of different reasons why your calves could be tight and or painful and heres what you can do about it

Have you Heard of Metatarsalgia

Pain in the ball of your foot is a common and unpleasant complaint. Sometimes after high heels or tight shoes, but often its not. Or that may be a precursor to a later problem

Presenting as either sharp pain or aching, metatarsal pain can be very debilitating and have a severe impact on your daily activities.
Loose Ankles

Lateral ankle sprains are not just the most common injuries suffered during athletic activities. They are also experienced during normal activities especially when wearing high heels. 

Early diagnosis along with functional treatment and rehabilitation are keys to prevent re-injury and chronic loose ankles!
Heat Molded Orthotics

Poor support in shoes and poor choices in fashion footwear has contributed to an epidemic of foot pain, heel pain, arch pain and related ailments. 
If you experience foot or leg pain, it may be as simple as correct footwear, advice to get you more comfortable again, treatment and sometimes orthotics. 
Our heat molded orthotics are only $65.00 and may save you a ton of future problems.
