Our Feet | Our Health





They are so essential to our movement. We stand on them, tip toe, jump, pound, stomp. They are celebrated and decorated, abused, massaged, rubbed, dipped, scrunched and stuffed, squeezed, painted, jeweled, and tattooed.

The most important aspect of our feet is this.. They are the bases of how we stand, how we are aligned and truly effect our health and well being. If we do not stand tall, straight and strong, it effects our whole body. If our feet are not healthy, our body stands to be weaker. Our spine stops at our tailbone, yet it is effected by how we stand on our feet.
Did you know that there are 26 bones and 100 muscles in one foot?
They are our foundation. If the foundation is weak, so is the structure..same as a house.
 If our feet are not in balance it can cause a mulittude of problems .. Fatique, foot pain, neck pain, knee problems, and we can have hip and spine alignment problems. All of that because our feet are not properly balanced.

 All is not lost.
Would you wear eyeglasses that weren’t prescribed for you? Or take an over-the-counter drug for a problem that requires a prescription drug? - See more at: http://www.footlevelers.com/about#sthash.47UTWaUE.dpuf
We could go buy a one size fits all style of shoe inserts..spending money on many until we either find one that kind of works or until we just give up on the idea.

Would you wear eyeglasses that weren’t prescribed for you? Or take an over-the-counter drug for a problem that requires a prescription drug?

Here is a better solution.
Have your feet scanned and analyzed to get a true picture of where the pressure points are and see what alignments issues there may be; then getting a custom made pair of Orthotics

  • Giving strength to support the weight of the entire body
  • Permitting sufficient flexibility to accommodate changes in terrain
  • Providing momentum for movement
