- Arches
- Concrete arches support a load,
or break under it; but arches of the foot flatten until the load is
lightened, then spring back and, at the same time, propel the body forward
in walking, leaping and running.
When the foot arches weaken from faulty development, constant overloading,
or prolonged inactivity, bunions and calluses can follow. These

Supports™ help treat the cause of foot problems, rather than the effect. Foot problems
such as
CORNS, CALLUSES,
BUNIONS, GOUT,
HEEL
SPURS, HAMMER TOES,
HIGH ARCHES,
LOW ARCHES, FOOT SWELLING, SHIN SPLINTS,
MORTON'S NEUROMA,
PLANTAR WARTS, LEG CRAMPS AND BURNING FEET
are mostly caused from wearing improper foot wear and/or working or walking
on hard surfaces for long periods of time, allowing the foot to lose its
posture or balance. Pain can result -- in the foot, leg, knees, back, hips,
neck, head, etc.
Nerves & Veins
- Nerves can be pinched, leading
to numbness. An unbalanced foot can cause spinal distortion. Veins can be
squeezed, helping promote varicose veins, and interfering with the work of
all structures which rely on the circulation.
Bones & Muscles
- The bones in the arch of your feet
are held in shape and operated by ligaments and muscles, which if not used
for any length of time, become so slack that the arch flattens, is hindered
in supporting your weight, and hampered in the job of moving your body
forward. Often given sufficient time and exercises, your arch will be
restored.
