My podiatrist prescribed a custom made ankle brace to avoid triple fusion ankle surgery for end stage arthritis in multiple parts of my ankle.
So far it's helping very much. I have changed to an anti-inflammatory diet and also do ankle exercises when not wearing the orthotic.
This is a fascinating conversation. I had dealt with foot pain for years and thought there was something wrong with me. I went to countless doctors and all of them said they weren't sure what was causing the pain and said my feet look beautiful. But not a single one suggested foot strengthening exercises, just custom inserts and to wear shoes at all times. Even to get carbon fiber footplates. I have spent thousands of dollars doing all the stuff. Since listening to this, I have started to walk around barefoot and am starting the exercises to work on strengthening my feet. I have even ordered some barefoot shoes and ordered some toe spacers
I have been following you across different platforms. Insta too . Short videos . Brief videos. Each one of them is very informative for those who are dealing with pain and want to look for some magic / help that makes the life bit easier. Keep up your good work. Love from 🇮🇳 Good luck for you.
I have always preferred to be barefoot and found that regular shoes caused me additional pain. I am so glad to have found Xero Shoes. Listening to you here is a reminder that I am heading down a good path and what I can do to move towards less pain and more movement. Thank you so much.
Thank you Dr. Conley & Dr. Kuhn for a very informative discussion. I am currently dealing with an issue with my big toe joint and realize the importance of healthy feet.
Welcome!
Really enjoyed this video and it’s given me hope and new drive to improve my feet.
You got this!
Thank you! Grateful! I learned So Much from this discussion!
This is awesome! Thank you. Where is the link for the toe spreaders? Looks so helpful!!! ❤
I have serve bilateral metatarsal and heel pain from what I believe is fat pad atrophy. However I used to do everything barefoot and was a Altra ambassador back in the day… I now wear orthotics 24/7 but still have great range of motion. I just keep trying to move while honouring my body, it’s bleed into my body:
I’m definitely open to suggestions. I used to be a dancer and avid hiker but now I’m just grateful to have a creek close by.
Love the information 👏
Glad it was helpful!
what about grounding? do you think that is important? also what about a pemf mat?
Great stuff !
Glad you enjoyed it
I had ankle surgery 2 years ago. Was put into orthotic. I had Posterior Tibilas Tendonitis . They had Plantar Fasciitis for 1 1:2. I am back in a brace and starting all over again. Can you Alyssa help to direct me to someone knowledgeable. I am stuck between Dr & PT. Bad cycle. Thank you
The plantar fasciitis was really diminished by wearing sandals and watershoes without heels.
Thanks for sharing.
Intro is WAY too long - couldn’t be bothered.
Understanding the movements is important.
