How about\u00a0having the freedom to\u00a0wear the shoes you want, without being restricted by orthotics. Well that is achievable, because in reality most people do not need to wear\u00a0orthotics. There is a\u00a0natural podiatric solution. If you want to avoid\u00a0wearing foot orthotics then keep reading. You will discover how the majority of clients that visit the right Podiatrist\u00a0do not need orthotics and have the freedom to walk barefoot and wear a whole variety of shoes.<\/p>\n<h2>Freedom from orthotics \u2013 Freedom from foot pain<\/h2>\n<p>Orthotics are often not needed\u00a0because\u00a0your feet can improve naturally with foot mobilisation therapy (FMT) and corrective exercises. You may actually have joints in your foot and ankle\u00a0that are misaligned. It is these misaligned joints that often lead\u00a0to foot &amp; leg pain. Those misaligned joints\u00a0can be corrected using gentle foot mobilisation. When this happens, foot pain\u00a0reduces.<\/p>\n<h2>Freedom\u00a0to\u00a0wear shoes you want<\/h2>\n<p>Imagine having the freedom to\u00a0wear the shoes you like without orthotics. Initially when you are weaning yourself off orthotics you will need to stay wear shoes that are generally more supportive. As your feet become stronger with the exercises given along with the foot mobilisation you will be able to wear\u00a0shoes that are less supportive. These less supportive shoes include slip-ons,\u00a0thongs, ballet flats and minimalist\/barefoot\u00a0type footwear.<\/p>\n<h2>Freedom\u00a0to walk barefoot without pain<\/h2>\n<p>Are you unable to walk barefoot because your feet are too painful on the hard floor? Maybe your\u00a0heels are extremely painful\u00a0with the first few steps you take. Natural Corrective Podiatry helps correct the underlying cause of your condition enabling the\u00a0body heal to itself\u2026 no orthotics, no surgery and no medication. In the meantime try a simple exercise\u00a0such as\u00a0rolling your foot over a rolling pin or a tennis ball first thing in the morning and also in the evening. This helps increase blood flow to the foot and improves mobility.<\/p>\n<h2><\/h2>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Wouldn\u2019t you love to be able to have the freedom from\u00a0orthotics and still be pain free?
