Fix Your Shoes... Improve Your Back


by Dr Porter

This, the first issue of "NEW Chiropractic Solutions! The E-zine Dedicated to a Pain-Free Lifestyle", will give you...

  • The first principal of fixing your shoes to make your whole body HAPPY
  • A case review of an automobile accident injury AFTER COMPLETION OF CARE!
You MUST fix or replace your shoes if they are making your body worse. That's right. If you don't fix your shoes properly then they can CAUSE neck and back pain - also knee pain, ankle pain, hip pain and more. Additionally, they can INCREASE your neck and back pain originating from some other cause! I know it's hard to believe BUT read what happens... Shoe manufacturers will often put arch supports, often with lots of cushion in them, into the insoles of their shoes. All this cushy stuff feels good -- THEY ARE TRYING TO SELL SHOES!!! Here's the problem... If anything pushes up from underneath your arch, EVEN A LITTLE BIT, your feet tilt outward. This twists your legs and throws your body out of balance. This then makes your NECK OR BACK TWIST (this twist causes the pain) to re-adjust your whole body for the arch supports in your shoes. This is why you hurt in these areas.

Try it yourself. Take off your shoes - feel better? You shouldn't... unless they are making your body worse. Now... put something under the insides of your feet (at your arch) that cause them to twist outward - just like your arch support does. Some of you will feel a bit better because your body is "messed up" and this shifts the pressure elsewhere. (Doesn't correct it, just shifts it elsewhere.) Most of you will feel more off balance than when bare foot. So these arches take the problem of sore feet and moves it causing - Back pain, neck pain, headaches or whatever, but it moves it someplace else!

The GOOD NEWS... When we use Advanced BioStructural Correction™ to fix your body then your feet stop hurting. This method untwists the body and these areas stop hurting.

TIP: We can fix your body doing ABC™, but if you continue to wear shoes with arch supports in them then you will not feel like you are making much progress. You will probably feel pretty good for a time after getting adjusted but then your symptoms come back.

So... Dealing with your shoes is critical for the rest of your body. We fix (if they can be fixed) every NEW patient's shoes - immediately after their first adjustment. Then, they go home and fix their other shoes.

This information on insoles and arch supports, though tremendously valuable, is only part of what we do to make sure your shoes are helping and NOT HARMING you. And... You can get the complete story in our soon to be released e-book - "The Chiropractic Patient's Handbook -- The Do-It-Yourself Guide to Sitting, Standing, and Sleeping for the Chiropractic Patient"
