Ancaster Foot Clinic and Orthotic Centre

isoned for 10 hours a day, withstanding almost 400 POUNDS OF PRESSURE PER SQUARE INCH every time you take a step. Your 26 foot bones and dozens of joints suffer without complaint until one day they just can’t take it anymore. Problems such as a corns, bunions, or blisters can set your nerves a fire. Foot problems may take years to develop. As we age, changes can occur in ligaments and muscle structures causing feet to lengthen and widen. In addition, feet tend to probate, or roll in more as we walk and the arches tend to flatten, causing heel pain. The excess weight that often comes with age may also contribute to foot problems. Unfortunately, few of us pay attention to these changes and squeeze our feet into the same size and style we have always worn.
