Do you have collapsed arches, and if you do have you looked into rebuilding them? Assuming you look into it i know Kelly Starrett has discussed it so he probably has good resources (e.g. in Ready to Run, no running required) and there are likely other good sources as well.
My feet have "much" more of an arch in my feet than two years ago and the difference is noticeable.
- dahart 9y agoNot that I know of, but I can't say I've ever had my arches evaluated. Maybe it's time! I do hike & run a lot and don't have any issues there. I used running shoes with good insoles & arch support when using the standing desk & treadmill desk. Would there be other symptoms that indicate collapsed arches?
- tomsthumb 9y agoYou'd have to do some research (and maybe involve a doctor). If you do have collapsed arches, or just really weak arches, your reasons are likely different than other peoples reasons.
- arisAlexis 9y agoI have collapsed arches. Do you mean that you can rebuild them by standing barefoot?
- tomsthumb 9y agoI have definitely hear a PT use the phrase "rebuild your arches". I've just experimented a lot and done some reading. In addition do doing A LOT of your own research and experimentation, talking to someone who actually knows what they're doing would probably be helpful.
