Foot Pain!!

Filed under: Healthier — alice @ 4:16 pm

Lately I’ve been experience a lot of foot pain, knee pain and even lower back pain.  When I told my friend about it, he told me that he has the same problem; but his feet have gotten better now after his wife (who is a nurse practitioner) brought some insole at REI to put in his shoes.   So, I quickly went to REI and got myself these “magic” insoles that he was talking about.  Just as he said, my feet had gotten a lot better after wearing the shoes with these insoles in them. 

After some research, I found that all of my pain could be a result of long term improper support on my feet to start with.  It turn out the long walking and the poor support caused my arch to collapse (or inflames) and therefore causing my knee extra strains when I walk… 

Anyway, the insoles that he was referring to is Super Feet http://www.superfeet.com/products/ they have all kinds of insoles that help to provide a better support for our feet.  The one I got was the green one.  I’m also trying the blue one for my boots.  They both seem to be very comfortable; I can definitely feel the extra support on my feet.  I can image that my arch is saying “aha, finally I can rest” J  So if you feel pain on your heels and having knee pains too, you might want to try a pair of these insoles before consider paying big $$ for other solutions.
