Let talk about gait and pronation!

What's all this about? Well.... Gait is the motion created in the movement when we walk or run an how our feet strike the floor and propel us forward.

Pronation - occurs when the foot rolls inward, placing more of a person's body weight on the inner border of the foot - wearing heavy on the sides of big toe etc.

Supination - When the foot rolls outward, placing most of a person's body weight on the outer border of the foot - wearing heavy on the outside of heel and little toe.

Here is a great link from Nike which explains in more detail.

Here is a link to the NHS approved insoles.

Things you can do to see how your feet relate to this.

1. Look at the wear pattern on the bottom of your shoes - inside or outside?
2. Note where you have problematic thick hard skin on your feet.
3. Use a wet footprint on paper to see the inprint. Does it have that iconic 's' shaped form or is it different?
4. Consider trying insoles to correct to restore a neutral position.
4. Consider a full biomechanical assessment.

Do you ever wish that your feet could be in better condition? Why do we keep getting reoccurring hard skin on the sides of our toes or balls of our feet? How can I help my feet and nails from constant injury from sport such as football, golf, netball or running shoes? Perhaps it's more to do with crowding of toes from bunions or hammer toes?

Well there is lots you can do... from creams, NHS approved insoles, tapping or exercises. Want to know more? Get in touch.

Let's talk Athelets Foot - tinea pedis 👣

I see lots of clients who have no idea that the peeling on their feet is not just dry skin - it's a fungal infection. Sometimes it's more obvious, seen between the digit space between the toes, but actually it's not always the case, it can be far more sutal, observed as peeling.

It's not enough to just treat your feet, you need to be treating your socks and footwear as well.

Want to know more - well here is a great article.

Athlete’s foot, or tinea pedis, is a contagious fungal infection that affects the skin on the feet. This condition is contagious and can spread to the toenails or hands. Common symptoms are itching, stinging, and raw skin. Learn about the causes, risk factors, and treatment.
