Hip
and Knee replacements
Many hip and knee replacements
become necessary because the body has been out of alignment and
off balance for too long. When not properly supported, hip and
knee joints wear out. This can be come very painful. In
many cases it is far easier to employ simple measures to improve
musculoskeletal balance rather, than
rely on the more invasive surgical solution of joint
replacement.
Incorrect posture is the major
cause of joint imbalance. Often we make our feet fit into
general footwear, rather than buying footwear that is designed
to fit our feet. In general footwear the area under the arch is
unsupported leading to an incorrect posture and skeletal
imbalance.
When feet are properly
supported by orthoses or medical grade footwear, skeletal
imbalance and the ensuing deterioration of joint function is
prevented.
Make
it a joint effort and care for your feet! |
