Several years back the podiatrist told me that the source of my Achilles tendon pain and plantar fasciitis was that I had flat feet. I would need to wear special orthotics (arch supports) for the rest of my life and never go barefoot. So I got the prescribed $300 custom orthotics… and hated them.

I found them stiff and uncomfortable, which the doctor said would disappear once I got used to them. Something didn’t seem right. I like my body to function naturally and this wasn’t it, so I started doing my research.

That research led me to understand how our feet are supposed to work, therapies and exercises to restore my natural foot function and minimalist shoes. The results are in the photo. Now, I help my clients do the same.

Share this with someone you know that has foot, ankle or Achilles problems and share your comments below. Together we can make your body function like nature intended.

PS. Now, one of my favorite things is walking barefoot.
