The foot is the bodys interface with the most powerful force that affects our body GRAVITY.

When do we get a break from Gravity? NEVER

Feet Have a Specific Job To Do with Every StepThe average person takes 10,000-15,000 steps/day. 115,000 miles in a lifetime.

5

3.5 times our body weight passes through our feet with each step.

During the day our feet endure a cumulative force of several hundred tons.

Years of standing and walking on concrete cause changes in the foot that lead to the vast majority of foot, ankle, knee, hip and back problems we encounter.

6

The foot is a biomechanical marvel made up of 26 bones and 33 joints.

25% of bones in the human body are located in the feet, which are madeup from 52 bones.

7

107 ligaments200 musclesall working together to provide balance, stability, and locomotion to take just one step.

8

The foot goes through 2 general motions while we walk. Pronation & SupinationPronation occurs when the foot unlocks or flattens when it hits the ground. It does this for shock absorption.

After the foot unlocks and flattens to adapt to the terrain it must re-stiffen or lock itself for efficient leverage to propel ourselves forward onto the next step. We call this locking of the foot Supination.

FORCE PASSAGE

With every step force is designed to pass through the foot in a specific pattern

PROPULSION

13

Without propulsion walking is harder and less efficient. Walking is very tiring if your feet are not propelling you forward!PROPULSION

14

POSTURAL SUPPORTOur feet are designed to hold our bodies up!

How can we have good posture in our spine if we dont have good posture in our feet?

15

When foot posture breaks down, additional stress is placed on the joints, muscles and ligaments of the pelvis, hips and knees.

16

SHOCK REDUCTION

When the foot is too flat and floppy, the arch of the foot and other muscles and ligaments have to absorb 30% of the shock when the foot hits the ground.

17

Over time this pounding on the concrete leads to wear-and-tear damage to joints, ligaments, tendons and muscles.

This is why so many people have increasing foot problems as they age.

18

95% of people have flat feet which are poor shock absorbers!If your feet arent absorbing the shock, what is?

19

Your knees, hips and back which are not designed to do so! And so begins the process of early degeneration.

20

WHAT KIND OF FEET DO YOU HAVE?

21

Excessive Pronation?This is a foot with excessive pronation. It will widen and lengthen with each step not only increasing your shoe size over the years but causing damage to your feet, knees and back.

22

Rigid, High Arched?A rigid, high-arched foot also cannot function properly because it has very little slack in its structure which sends all the shock up the leg and into the spine.

23

A Custom, Flexible, Orthotic Can Help!

24

Not All Orthotics Are Created Equal!

Buyer beware! Fancy machines do not mean the best product.

25

A true custom orthotic is made from a 3-D cast of your feet. Also, the orthotic is in perfect contour with your corrected foot posture.

26

Why Are Sole Supports So Different?

27

Full Contact 3-D Casting

Sole Supports are the only full contact orthotics on the market. They fully restore the arch to each persons unique foot structure.

28

Are your orthotics in full contact with your supported foot? Hold them up under your arch as you lift your heel off the ground. If there is a space between the orthotic and your foot, your orthotic is useless.Full Contact

29

In order for the full contact design of a custom orthotic to be comfortable, it must flex.

Our orthotics are calibrated specific to your foot flexibility.

30

Each persons foot has a unique flexibility to it. This information is provided to the lab to ensure your orthotic provides the correct support to your feet.

Bunions / Hallux Valgus

Bunion Prominence

37

Arthritis When the foot is not functioning correctly, arthritis can form over years before it becomes noticeable and painful. The big toe joint is a common area for arthritis to occur.

38

Sole Supports restores function back to the big toe, allowing it to move efficiently.

39

Excessive pronation can cause pain and instability in the ankles.Its not uncommon for people with flexible flat feet to have weak ankles and roll or sprain them regularly. Remember, strained muscles and ligaments send inaccurate messages to the brain about where the feet are in space. Balance is an important function of the feet and can be restored!

40

Excessive Pronation causes early wear and tear in the knee joints; degenerative arthritis is very common.Sole Supports restore normal structure and function to the ankle and knee by lifting the arch and keeping it there!

41

Over-pronation of the foot causes excessive internal rotation of the lower leg. This ultimately results in an excessive curvature of the low back with painful consequences early degenerative changes in the spine.

42

Its never too early to have your loved ones evaluated.

Faulty foot mechanics can be detected and corrected at a young age.

43

Most people dont hesitate to make sure their tires are correctly aligned in order to get the maximum wear out of them. Foot alignment and correction works the same way; its all about getting better function right now to prevent future problems.Custom Orthotics Are An Investment In Your Health.
