YOU NEED TO MAINTAIN PROPER SUPPORT THROUGHOUT THE DAY, AND IT STARTS WITH YOUR FEET!
Your feet are your foundation
If the foundation of your house is crumbling, think of all the damage that can do. Walls crack, pipes can burst, the roof-line sags.
That’s what happens when your arches collapse. Your knee hurts, you feel discomfort in your back, your posture is terrible. We can adjust you, but if we don’t address your crumbling foundation (feet), your house (body) is going to suffer. The adjustment will not hold as long.
It makes no sense, however, to address your feet in one pair of shoes, but not others. Some of the time you’re walking on a stable foundation, while sometimes you’re walking on a failing foundation?
NOT A GOOD PLAN. HERE’S WHY:
How your “foundation” crumbles
When most people walk, their foot rolls in. It’s called pronation. Pronation only becomes a problem when your foot rolls in too much, which is called over-pronation. When you over-pronate, it throws your ankles, knees, hips, and back out of alignment - often causing pain.
If you over-pronate, you over-pronate ALL THE TIME.
If you pronate excessively, you are more likely to be in pain.
