The first step to healthier feet is reducing and gradually eliminating time spent in unnatural shoes
When you stop damaging your feet, they begin healing and restoring back to default settings at an incredible rate
Only wear shoes that are:
Anatomically shaped
Flat
Flexible
Have a thin, firm sole of 10mm or less
—
No cushioning
No arch support
No elevated heel
—
…As always
Don’t trust, verify
Study the SAID principle and come to your own conclusions

It’s remarkable how much better your feet feel and how quickly they begin to heal when you stop damaging them with unnatural footwear
Better shoes = healthier feet
It’s that simple

Best practices for health professionals is similar to the building code for trades
Best practices don’t tell pros how to treat or what tools to use just like the building code doesn’t tell trades what kind of house to design/build or what tools to use
They both simply ensure that whatever gets done meets a minimum requirement of critical elements
They are guidelines that ensure a minimum level of quality and hold pros and trades accountable to doing the right things

5 essential practices for health professionals who work with the lower extremity:
1) Mindset education
Thinking long term, focusing on removing unnatural inputs first then adding natural inputs, being consistent and patient, understanding that pain is a teacher not an enemy, 1% better everyday is the objective
2) Movement education
Less time sitting in chairs, more time walking and on the ground, the body requires varied movement everyday
3) Footwear education
Eliminate shoes that damage your feet and mess up your posture, spend time barefoot and wear natural footwear when your feet need protection (foot shaped, flat, flexible, thin sole, fixed to your foot)
4) Pain education
Pain is an adaptive signal that must be listened to, pain isn’t the enemy and shouldn’t be muted, pain is the most powerful feedback that guides correct action
5) Movement screening
Single leg balance for 60 seconds, sit to stand no hands, resting squat position
If you don’t apply these in your practice, you are not upholding a reasonable standard of care and you are not being as effective as you could be
[macaw_853566]
Over a long enough time period, If you treat lower extremity issues (hip, thigh, knee, ankle, foot) and don’t recommend natural footwear, you will not be taken seriously
Reputational pain will force disease care pros to update their approach
Option 1: be curious, update your knowledge and reclaim effectiveness by applying best practices
Option 2: be rigid, refuse to update your knowledge, keep treating symptoms without addressing root causes and be left behind
Every pro has a choice to make
Not choosing IS a choice

Mediocrity is no longer acceptable
Ineffectiveness is no longer acceptable
The status quo is no longer acceptable

Sending you Love and good vibes. My best tools for times where I feel low are a slow walk in nature with no phone, journaling things I’m thankful for and calling someone I Love to check in. Hope that helps 🫶🏽
Pain is mandatory
Suffering is optional
- Haruki Murakami
Pain is a protective feedback signal that guides correct action
Ignore the signal and we suffer
Listen to it and we adapt

Best practices separate professionals from amateurs
They separate serious people driven to mastery from the complacent who are satisfied with the status quo
Best practices raise the bar
True professionals will gravitate towards high standards
