147 The Best Shoes for Healthy Feet
Are barefoot shoes best for everyone (and every foot)? And what's the best brand of shoe if you want happy and healthy feet and ankles (and get out of pain)?
The foot is complex - with 26 bones, 33 joints, and more than 100 muscles, tendons, and ligaments. And while wearing a wider, thinner soled shoe can help increase your foot strength and ankle mobility by allowing more of your foot to move, building up strength for barefoot shoes is best done gradually.
If you struggle with plantar fasciitis, foot pain, stiff ankles or tight calves - today's episode is for you!
- What makes a shoe barefoot or minimal
- What to look for in barefoot shoes
- Tips on how to transition into barefoot shoes
