Such amazing topic. Full of information, research and tools for stable, strong feet for foundations of mobility. I believe orthotics used are just one element to aid the feet but physical movements for toes, ankle, arch mobility is key above just being supported. One main issue is the fascia that connects throughout the body including the feet is important to stay flexible. It’s one major part to all the movement and health of the body. Great presentation. Always learn so much from you.
These seem like great strategies for fallen arches. Strengthening the feet goes pretty slowly it seems and they can get overworked so it is nice to have the option of a temporary brace here and there.
My son has overpronation and I am glad that I found this video before buying bulky spongy shoes from major brands like asics, new balance. I am sold that barefoot is the correct solution. My question is how do I make my teenager to do all that is suggested in this video. Currently, he wears normal pointed Nike shoes with custom insoles. Which suggested shoes can he start with? Can he still wear his custom insoles with some of the toe separators and shoes suggested on your website?
Start with a shoe from our flat feet list barefootstrength.com/find-my-shoes/shoes/presets/health/flat-feet/ All have removable insoles so he can replace with his current orthotic. They also all have wide toe boxes which can accommodate the use of silicone spacers.
I think you cannot fix bunions without surgery beacause the reason of bunions is overgrowth of toe bone, how you can shorthen the bone without surgery?
This is wonderful info. I notice all of my toes seem to be aligned BUT my smallest tow on my right foot has begun to curl inward and sideways, as if it is tucking into my 4th toe. Is it possibly my shoes?
Could use some advice. I have one foot with a really strong arch and the other with a flat arch. It drives me crazy and messes with my knee on the flat foot side. I’ve been working on my hips in hopes that maybe I have an imbalance there that’s causing on side to go flat. What would you recommend for something like this?
Thank you for this video! I'm looking to buy some toe spacers, but I have a large foot size-13.5 US (48 EU)-so my toes are also quite large. Do you have any recommendations for me? I'm concerned that regular toe spacers might not work well for my bigger feet. In general, I struggle to find good products in my size. Fortunately, shoes aren't an issue, but things like toe socks and arch support insoles are hard to come by. Do you know where I can find high-quality insoles, toe socks, and toe spacers that would fit my feet? Thanks a lot!
If not, then it might be that your glutes on that side of your body are firing less than the other side. Try the glute activation test found in this video: ua-cam.com/video/VcpMkfELmc8/v-deo.htmlsi=sCw1ksE3VQJCROe7

OMG, the truth finally comes out about how feet really work!

I use spacers but more then 10-15 minutes makes my feet hurt so I gotta take em out. Trying to do more foot and glute stuff
thank you for your helpful information and tips
I was just in Cape Town for the last 2 and a half weeks! When was this made? I’d of loved to see you coz I’m a big fan.

Don’t forget to correct knee valgus if you want to correct flat feet.
Hi!i recently made insoles and a Silicone spacer but for one big toe...is it enough?
Hahah kind remind me of the chicken or the egg…. Do the glutes cause the feet to go flat or do flat feet cause glutes to turn off?
What do you do when one foot is flatter than the other? How does that work with inserts
Does the flatter foot have greater toe misalignment?
If not, then it might be that your glutes on that side of your body are firing less than the other side. Try the glute activation test found in this video: ua-cam.com/video/VcpMkfELmc8/v-deo.htmlsi=sCw1ksE3VQJCROe7
It's definitely a glute problem
