Let's say you need a pair of glasses because you're nearsighted.
You'd probably go get an eye exam, right? Then, you'd use the info from that exam to pick a pair of lenses that fit your unique needs.
So why go with "one size fits all" orthotics for your feet? That's like picking up generic reading glasses for your eyesight...or using someone else's prescription! You're unique. Your problems are unique. And the solutions should be, too.

"Bone spurs."
It's a weird name for a common problem. What are they? Why do they hurt? And how can a podiatrist get rid of them?
If someone is telling you they can 'dissolve' the spurs for you, don't buy it! And don't answer questions like these via Google.

Whether you're playing varsity or just pickup at the Y, basketball is grueling on your feet and ankles. The jumping, pivoting, and cutting require a strong engine.
Be sure to...
👟 Check Your Gear: Are your shoes a season old? Worn-out cushioning is an invitation for stress fractures. Replace them! And grab some moisture-wicking socks to prevent blisters.
💪 Build Your "Internal Brace": Strong ankles are stable ankles. Add calf raises and single-leg balance drills to your warm-up to protect that Achilles.
🧘 Don't Skip the Warm-Up: Tight calves lead to plantar fasciitis and tendonitis. 5 minutes of stretching can save your season.
🛡️ Protect the Past: History of ankle sprains? Your risk of re-injury is high. Talk to us about professional taping or a brace for extra stability.
Does any of this seem painfully familiar? Our blog will help you step past these kinds of issues for good: https://tinyurl.com/yfthfe4n
