Do You Know Your All Important Foot Type?

Did you know that the function of your feet, how you walk, and common conditions are all genetic? If your parents had flat feet, or bunions, or shin splits, chances are that you could have these conditions too? You also stand the chance of passing these conditions along to your kids. 

WE CAN HELP! There is something you can do about it before symptoms become worse. Find someone who can tell you your foot type and what symptoms and conditions you are likely to experience throughout your lifetime. There are ways to treat these conditions to help prevent further pain or deterioration. A well-fitting pair of functional orthotics is one of the ways you can stabilize your body, walk correctly, and experience less painful symptoms.

Ever Wonder Why You Would Need a Foot Orthotic?

Your Feet Are Important!

Like the foundation of a house, it all begins at the ground. Yes, flat feet are often the cause of foot pain. But, did you know that your foot structure often contributes to common ailments such as shin, knee, hip or back pain?

JUST BECAUSE YOUR FEET DON’T HURT DOESN’T MEAN THEY AREN’T THE FOUNDATION OF YOUR SYMPTOMS!

Have you ever wondered how a higher arch can increase the likelihood of heel pain and ankle instability which in turn changes the way you walk?

Are you aware that most adults have a leg that is longer? In fact, the majority of individuals have some degree of limb inequality either in structure or function.

Did you know your shoe size can change even if your feet haven't necessarily "grown"?

Do you wonder if it can actually be healthy to wear a heel occasionally?

 

Ever wonder what a callus indicates?

Did You Know Your Foot Type is Genetic? Your foot type and how you walk is inherited from your parents, just like hair and eye color. You won't "outgrow" your foot problems, and your kids will inherit your feet! 

Foot Orthotics can help with all these conditions, as they actually help to stabilize and control the way you walk so that you are aligned properly, and you have a stronger foundation. That can result in alleviation of pain and symptoms in ALL areas of your body, not just your feet.

Why Treat All Feet the Same?

Your feet are not like anyone else's, why should your foot orthotics be the same?

The QUADRASTEP SYSTEM® is based on the different structural and functional aspects of the foot, categorizing them into 6 specific foot "types". Each foot type influences not only how you walk, but the conditions and symptoms that you may experience throughout your life.

The QUADRASTEP SYSTEM® provides truly corrective prefabricated foot orthotics (not just arch supports) that can bring immediate improvement to your symptoms! Your practitioner can select a device with the correct features for you, based on your foot type.

QUADRASTEP® orthotics are the closest you can get to a custom orthotic, without the expense and wait!

Your practitioner can explain how properly balanced feet can dramatically improve your overall posture and strength to optimize your bio-mechanical wellness.
