Fallen arches can cause a lot more than just minor aches and pains.
The feet are the foundation of the body and no structure in this world can stand for long on a poor foundation. This holds true for us as much as it does for your house. Fallen arches and other degenerative conditons can lead to foot pain, but it can also work its way up the body causing pain all the way up to your head. When you are not properly balanced on your feet, you place extra weight on one foot over the other. This in turn causes more weight on one leg wich can cause a shift all the way up. All this extra weight over a period of time can cause pain in your knees, hips, back, neck and more.
With a set of orthotics that are made using a scan of YOUR feet, you can prevent this by giving your feet the right amount of support. Since no two feet are exactly alike, buying a generic store bought orthitc probably won’t work well for you. This is because they often only take one of your arches into account, and they seldom measure for the pressure put on each foot indiviadually. A Foot Levelers scan will take all of this and more into the design of your orthotic assuring you a proper fit that will help retain the arches you have and help get you relief from pain.
