Arch Pain

Your arches (the spaces on the inner side of your feet) are one of the most important parts of your feet, making it possible for your feet to sustain your body weight. They also reduce the amount of damage everyday activities do to your feet and shift the energy your feet absorb while walking into your next step. Since they are such an important part of how your body works, it’s important that you get to know them as well as possible.

Aching arches? What a nuisance! Most people never give a second thought to their arches until they start to hurt, but spare a second to think beyond your feet and consider what an arch is, in a building for example. Sure they’re pretty, but they’re there for a purpose, too! Arches bear weight and your feet are no different, taking your body weight almost constantly throughout the day, really it’s a miracle that our feet aren’t always aching, so the least you can do for your hardworking arches is make sure they’re supported!
