Have You Ever:

Wondered why your feet hurt so much and can make you so miserable?

Considered that maybe your knee pain or back pain is actually caused by the malfunction of your feet?

Thought that maybe nothing can be done and “you’ll just have to live with it?”

Don’t miss hearing about the awe­some structure and function of those lowly — yet amazingly complex — feet that we take for granted!  In this program, you will become familiar with how treatment can greatly improve, or even eliminate the discomfort of being on your feet all day at work, hiking, running, or skiing!  Learn ex­actly what foot orthotic appliances are and how they work.

 

Hear about the most common foot problems and the latest treatment for:

  • Bunions 
  • Neuromas
  • Hammertoes
  • Tendon problems
  • Painful arches 
  • Heel pain
  • Degenerative arthritis

 

Something Special

 

Footwear, etc. will be onsite to display the lat­est styles in their com­fort shoes. Shoes that not only feel good, but look great on your feet!
