The road to longevity begins with a single step! Therapists teach three private steps to keep your feet healthy.
Liu Shenfeng, a physiotherapist in Lida Clinic, has a close relationship between feet and human body. The ancients said, "A man with feet is like a tree with roots. When a tree dies, the roots are exhausted first, and people are old and old. The history of mankind begins with standing. We went everywhere with our feet. Whether in daily life, leisure sports or work, we need to walk and move with our feet. Feet are like the foundation of human health. The human foot consists of 26 bones, 33 joints and hundreds of muscles and ligaments. Only through these organizations can we give you a solid foundation. With the hard bone structure, it is necessary to have suitable software equipment to assist the movement, and the arch of the foot is a very important part. We always have three main arches: the inner arch, the outer arch and the transverse arch. The inner arch is responsible for absorbing the ground reaction force when walking and standing to achieve the effect of shock absorption; The lateral arch is used to keep balance when we walk on uneven terrain, while the lateral arch is used as a propeller when we walk. The three supporting points make the foot base bear five times the gravity of the human body. The three focus points of the foot include the first metacarpal bone, the fifth metacarpal bone and the calcaneus, and these three support points are used as the stress points of the foot to support the weight of our whole body. Clinical research shows that the volume of feet only accounts for 5% of the whole body. When walking, the foot bears 1.5 times the weight, which increases to 2-3 times when running, and even increases to 4-4.5 times when jumping. There are three supporting points like this, which disperse the pressure and achieve the effect of shock absorption. Therefore, the use of these three focus points, with the bones, muscles, ligaments and arches of each foot, to create a base to support the weight of the body. If we imagine the human body as a tree, our feet are the roots. When the roots are unstable and unable to support the trunk above, the trunk is unstable and vulnerable, and even a small external force may cause it to collapse. This is like human beings: if we don't have a stable foot, it will cause changes and compensation in the body, leading to instability and easy injury. Protect your arch. Wear shoes that suit you according to your foot type. People's foot shape and arch height will affect the stress when walking, jumping and running. It is very important to wear shoes suitable for individuals to stabilize our arch. No matter whether the arch is too high or collapses downward, it can't be absorbed or impacted, maintaining balance. As a good propeller, it is easy to compensate the muscles of knees, pelvis and waist. Over time, it may cause muscle tension, degenerative arthritis, or low back pain! We wear shoes for an average of 8 hours every day, so it is very important to wear suitable and comfortable shoes. In order to avoid feet affecting our health, share some tips on choosing shoes! When choosing shoes, give priority to wide toe design, adjustable shoelaces, appropriate size and moderate insole hardness.

When choosing shoes, give priority to wide toe design, adjustable shoelaces, appropriate size and moderate insole hardness. In order to maintain the elasticity and muscle strength of our feet, it is suggested that we can do some impact exercises, starting with the simplest brisk walking and then jogging. Next, I will introduce some foot movements. It is suggested that an action lasts for 10 to 15 seconds, and it can be done once in the 10 group, which can be done before getting up in the morning and going to bed at night. Lunge: Stand back and forth with your feet, heel off the ground and push forward. Stretch the calf muscles. Toe-grabbing towel action: put the towel on the floor and grab it with your toes. Train the muscles that support the arch and keep the arch shape. Plantar self * * *: You can put the soles of your feet with tennis balls or tin cans and roll them back and forth to relax the pressure on your feet and promote blood circulation. Foot diseases have a great influence on health, so we need to keep our feet healthy, and choosing shoes and foot sports training conditions can keep our feet healthy. Create a stable base, avoid the compensation of our lower limbs and stay away from degenerative diseases!
