Dear ,
Who doesn't like a good foot rub?
Our feet are stuck in the shoes - one of my teachers calls them " leather coffins" - the whole day. Robbed of their natural bouncy movement by this closed confinement, our feet loose their structural vibrancy and balance, and all there's left to do by the end of the day is to soothe and massage the poor things in hopes of alleviating pain. And if you are a runner, add to that dealing with shin splints, plantar fasciitis, knee and hamstring injuries. That's life, you say, there's no other way. Right?
I have a better idea!
Join Dr. Christopher Lyddell and I for a holistic and
grounded approach to your feet in the Healthy Feet Clinic.
Gain a clear understanding of your feet's anatomy, as our guest speaker, Dr. Christopher Lyddell, explains it in
understandable terms with the help of 3D digital illustrations. See
what happens when you walk, and run; when your feet pronate, or
supinate; understand the science behind plantar fasciitis and collapsed
arches.
Get an insight on the faulty bio-mechanics
that are causing sore feet and postural imbalances with
self-assessment of your standing and walking gait.
Use our tested and true program of
relaxation, stretching and neuromuscular exercise to build more
awareness and balance in your standing and walking, while reducing pain
and numbness.
Find out how to align your feet with your
knees, hips and spine.
Discover simple and effective exercises to
get rid of your bunions.
What about running? Learn how to care and
protect your feet while running and how to choose the appropriate

Get all your feet - related questions answered!
Nature has gifted you with balanced, aligned, grounded and graceful feet.
