Give your feet some love! Get orthotics!

Foot pain?  Get orthotics!

This last weekend I was in Las Vegas attending a chiropractic seminar.  I forgot how much distance a person walks when they're in Las Vegas, because it seemed like I couldn't get ANY place too quickly, it always seemed like a 10-15 minute walk.

I wasn't thinking when I packed my bag for Vegas, because I didn't take any shoes that had good arch support for my feet, AND I didn't take along the orthotics I put in my shoes (not smart, Leif!).  Not only did I have achey feet, but my lower back was pretty sore afterwards, too!

I even remember when I started to get sore.  It was when a friend and I decided to walk from the Venetian (the building with the white lights along the top at the top right of the picture), and walk all the way to the Excalibur (the blue roof building on the bottom left).  What I didn't take into account, though, was how far those two hotels are away from each other!  (For those of you who are curious it's a little over 2 miles each way.)  

And if you are like me and walk a lot in flip-flops, then be ready to be sore!
 


The reason I wear orthotics is because I have flatter feet than I should.  There are 3 main categories of foot arch:  Normal, High Arch, and Flat Arch.   
   

The 5 Main Problems associated with loss of arch support are:
- Heel Pain
- Bunions
- Hammer Toes
- Tendonitis
- Ankle, Knee, Hip or Low Back Pain

Here at Active ChiroCare, we give people customized foot orthotics called Sole Supports, and they're fantastic.
