    Do you suffer with toe weakness and forefoot related pain?

    Forefoot pain? 

    If you're suffering from forefoot pain, specifically at the ball of the foot, commonly associated with Metatarsalgia or Morton's Neuroma. You'll be interested to read a recent study that found a correlation between better toe-strength and function and reduced symptoms relating to forefoot pain. The improved strength of the toes reduced the experienced pain in subjects much more than insoles did.

    Our toes provide a great surface area for load distribution, so if you constantly cram your toes in narrow shoes, effecting their shape and strength, then all the pressure when standing and walking falls on the metatarsals which contact the ground at the ball of the foot.

    Imagine doing pushups with your fingers crammed together, or without fingers at all! 
    You can read the full article here.

    We have effectively treated thousands of people with strength exercises, and consistently find it to be one of the best methods of pain in the forefoot and others areas of the foot.

    We have put all this know-how and experience in our workshop Fix your Feet to empower you to restore your feet and take control of your symptoms permanently!
