Feet issues will affect your entire skeletal system and be a source of hip pains, lumbar pains, even meck pains as your body compensates. Western treatments are of limited relief for chronic pain, often accompanied by side effects such as dopeyness, kidney problems, stomach issues etc. Acupuncture can improve your neuropathy or arthritic pain without side effects and with improvement of balance and posture resulting in long term improved health. It could even help cardiovascular health if you use your better base and increase exercise!!! Or even just take daily walks in the park. Call for a consultation 732-591-5888. Look at my credentials www.mariachoy.com Do your research. Many local acupuncturists are trained 1.5 days per week for 3 yrs, with or without a science background, and are qualified to practice in NJ
Most people think foot pain is just a foot problem.
But it’s not.
Your feet are your foundation, and when that foundation collapses, it sends shockwaves up your entire body.
If your foot rolls in (pronation), your hip drops forward. If your foot rolls out (supination), your weight shifts to the outside edge. In both cases, your pelvis twists, your spine compensates, your neck strains, and you start to live in dysfunction without realizing it.
But when the foot is weak or poorly coordinated, your nervous system stops trusting it.
This creates a cascade of problems throughout your kinetic chain.
The solution isn’t stretching or strengthening individual muscles.
It’s retraining your body’s control system to send clear signals again.
Here’s how it works:
1️⃣ sensory input (feet, eyes, jaw) → 2️⃣ brain processing →
3️⃣ motor output →
4️⃣ automatic posture correction
When your brain gets clear, coordinated signals from all three systems, your posture corrects itself naturally.
Everything above your ankle is trying to survive what’s happening below it.
The only real fix is to retrain the sensory system in your foot so your brain starts trusting your foundation again. That means improving proprioception not bracing it with rigid arch supports that make the problem worse.
That’s why I created the 5-Minute Posture Fix, to help you reverse this collapse at the source by teaching you how to wake up dormant systems and rebuild stability from the ground up.
