Do your feet ache? Do you suffer from chronic ankle instability or stiffness, plantar fasciitis (heel pain), bunions, flat feet, hammer toes, neuromas, Achilles tendinitis, or other foot ailments?
Each foot has 33 joints — a quarter of all your joints are in your feet!!! Do you think your feet were meant to move? Yet, the typical solutions offered for foot issues involve motion prevention and arch support. No other body region is treated this way. No one ever says when you sprain an ankle: “here, walk with crutches and wear a brace for the rest of your life.” Rather, we use crutches and braces as appropriate while rehabbing to restore strength, mobility, and function — i.e. we restore optimal biomechanics. Why are the feet treated so differently?
In this workshop we will cover:
“Ideal” biomechanics and function of your feet and related structures
How to assess your own feet and related structures
Movement based solutions, AKA corrective exercises
