Where to find shoes
Many of you met me as the owner of On Your Mark or The Runners’ High - the specialty running stores I owned in Los Altos and Menlo Park. With the recent closing of A Runner’s Mind in Los Altos, you may be looking for a new resource for footwear. I can help.
For those looking for a local store to support, I recommend visiting Jim Gothers and the team at Fleet Feet Menlo Park. (Some of you may know this as the original location of The Runner’s High.) Sports Basement also carries a wide selection of quality footwear.
If you need more assistance, I can meet you at one of these locations for a footwear fitting appointment, either in conjunction with a gait analysis or evaluation, or as a stand alone service.
For the highest level of care and also convenience, I offer in-home appointments where we can discuss and evaluate your unique footwear needs and then I will provide you with a curated selection of footwear.
Footwear suggestions based on your needs are also a part of Evaluations, Gait Analysis, and Orthotic Fitting appointments.
When it comes to footwear, fit is more than just the size on the box. There are other factors to consider; the unique shape of your foot, any injuries you may be facing or trying to avoid, what you are using the shoes for, and your body’s mechanics. What’s trending or what has worked wonders for a friend, may not be the best for you. Together we can find the right shoes to fit your needs.
If you’d like to schedule a footwear fitting appointment, please email me.
Evaluations, Gait Analysis, and Orthotic Fitting appointments can be booked online.
Let's keep your feet happy and healthy.
Available Services
Evaluation
During an evaluation, we'll look into what is hurting and what muscles are involved. You'll get a better understanding of what is going on with your feet and a plan going forward of how to recover and preventative steps to keep you feeling good.
Gait Analysis
During a gait analysis, we'll look at the details of your feet and your walking or running mechanics. You'll receive a path for recovery plus drills to help you make positive adjustments in your mechanics to help prevent future discomforts and keep you active.
Great for student athletes!
Custom Insoles or Orthotics
If you have been prescribed orthotics by your health care provider or you would like to discuss if custom insoles would be appropriate for you, booking a Custom Insoles/ Orthotics Fitting is the place to start. Custom insoles and orthotics can be made for any type of footwear.
Love your orthotics but tired of moving them between shoes? Email me to order an extra pair.
If you prefer not to meet in person, Video Evaluations and Footwear Recommendations are also available.
In-Home appointments available within 25 miles of Redwood City, Ca.
Please contact me to discuss options if you are outside of the service area.
