Do you have painful feet, bunions, hammertoes, or collapsed arches? If you’ve visited a podiatrist, you most likely ended up with some orthotic inserts and were sent on your way. Hopefully, those inserts worked! Most likely, they helped a little, but as the years have passed, your condition has progressively worsened. Is there anything you can do about it? On this week’s podcast, you’ll meet a functional podiatrist who will help you understand your options.
Listen and learn:
- What a 15-min self-care routine might look like for your feet
- The pros and cons of surgical interventions
- Why reduced bone density might disqualify you for surgery
- Why flat feet is sometimes caused by ligament laxity and strength and stretch routines are unlikely to correct this structural issue
