Your feet are the foundation of your body. Seriously, they are the unsung heroes holding your whole body up. With a mix of bones, tendons, muscles, and ligaments; they’re making sure you can do all the things you love, from strolling to running a marathon.
Think about it—even the simplest step or a full-on dance move starts with your feet. They’re like the trusty pillars supporting your body, making sure everything’s evenly distributed and other joints aren’t feeling the strain.
Now, if you’re dealing with some discomfort while working, walking, or just moving around, it might be worth asking yourself: Is my posture a bit wonky? Am I standing funny? Maybe it’s time to consider that the issue lies in the foundation—your feet. A Lower Limb Musculoskeletal Assessment could be the way to figuring things out. Give your feet the attention they deserve, and who knows, you might be back to dancing through life in no time!
Lower Limb Musculoskeletal Assessment
