Wow first person who has made sense and given me some hope . ❤

If it's faster to take multiple short steps, you'd move them faster, wouldn't you..? You're saying 'taking long strides' helps you move 'faster', yet, this would only true if you moved the greater distance in the same tempo. Intuitively, this seems wrong. Longer steps would take a longer time to swing through, so, if you say, faster times help us live longer, then, it follows that you should take quick short steps to get both a better workout and a faster stride and therefore a 'longer life'..? Or, are you saying the stride length can be varies by 'when' you kick off the rear ball of foot..?

I personnaly walk barefoot most of the time & i don' t believe in any anti aging effect. Walking barefoot is excellent for the health, the spine, the posture etc...+ in general those poeple are doing yoga, sports, are vegetarians, are active, etc...clint ober is making a lot of blablabla about walking barefoot for me. I left europ for the desert in order to avoid shoes & have a more natural life 10 years before clint ober make his doc,+ book. It became fashion.it's all recuperation in order to make buziness...

I tried to vote, but the link failed

And you always have to wear half size up shoe

Layman terms please Dr Emily. I understand anatomy terms but many don’t. Spare the uneducated ones the burden 😂

I wish that this video would have shown a person with an actual separation of toes due to partial plate tear having it taped.

how about if you have high arches and have heel pad pain?

@altinogazette8869- Amen!

Emily, this is an amazing webinar! Thank you so much! You are the best explainer of feet anatomy and feet problem. Thank you for do this free for us🙏!

Thanks!

will need to re-watch again and again. thnxxxxxxxxxxxxxx for each webinar of yours

I have Mortons toe. Never bothered me when I was younger, but I have become more self conscious about it in my 60's.

Dear Dr. Splichal, I am developing hammertoes that are rotating, especially painful for the 2nd toe bilaterally. How can I prevent this from rotating even more? I’ll do these exercises, but any advice about the rotated hammertoes is appreciated. Thank you so very much.

Thank you for posting this. Your seminars on foot function and exercises have helped me make so much sense of lower leg and foot posture. I have reduced knee pain when riding a skateboard day after day over hundreds of miles and allow for a crazy amount of stability. After practicing short feet for a couple years I rode (a longboard) from fairbanks AK to Alberta in Canada and I felt absolutely solid and never had any knee aches. I wish I had known this back when I was a competitive racer. In my day job I train development athletes. Your intrinsic foot exercises have helped me improve the power of my young athletes and move beyond injuries. Honestly so many knee exercises are prescribed by physios and guys like the KOT guy and they miss this part of the equation. I have combined the hip airplane exercise with short feet and it has been a game changer for stabilizing my clients knees (and my own) and of course if you learn to do it with your eyes closed it's amazing for single leg balance. I'm currently trying to fashion drills that help apply these principles through the motion of jumping so this video has come out at a wonderful time for me. I'll be ordering your book asap too. I don't know how I missed it. Thank you again Dr. Splichal, To everyone else do these exercises multiple times per week.

Recommending people get rocker shoes or orthotics is not a solution for anything. Those are crutches. Crutches are not a solution for correcting the way somebody walks.

Thank you! This has significantly decreased my pain!

Thanks for this video!

I believe it is the secret to my supreme athleticism and balance. But I went most my life wearing shoes that were much too big

Best dr on the internet 🎉

Very clear and informative. Thank you

Got you thank you Doc.❤🎉

I'm off to purchase some Hoka shoes, and I've ordered the pad and silk tape as directed...very early stages of cross over toes!!! THANK YOU!!

I feel like my right leg in particular is very lazy when I drive, just hanging to the side as you say.

this is irritating..the SP debater is going on and on like a motor mouth and is not being moderated..

Congratulations! I'm Erwin, and when the weather changes, that's when my end comes..., in other words, I feel the sudden change in temperature, from cold to warm and vice versa, like fog, I can anticipate the weather forecast through intercostal neuralgic pains. I want to write to you that I had a respiratory virus when I was 20 years old, but as a small child I had "nerves in my stomach", as I explain in a simplified way that anyone can understand. I would like to ask you what you think happens when the weather changes, because only when the weather changes do I have these manifestations, mood changes, anxiety, palpitations, even from the wind blowing irregularly. Do you think it's about the autonomic nervous system, sympathetic/parasympathetic, only, or also the vagus nerve, and what exercises would you recommend?! Thank you very much. With respect and honest friendship, Erwin. 🤗

Thank you for your video!! There seem to be so few specialists who actually understand this condition. What exercises do you recommend for stabilizing the medial column and subtalar joint? I'm a rock climber and my FnHL started after I really amped up my climbing, so I'm hoping I can correct it with exercises. Please help!

I didn't do towel crunches for the reason you stated. We don't crunch our toes when walking so I didn't see much benefit it trying for a movement with a movement that isn't performed. Thanks for all the information

WOW THIS IS FANTASTIC , such valuable info, that's how African elite runners are so fast, despite being so lean , cause they know how to use the elastic energy of their feet, tendons and so on...do you have any specific video lesson on running? it would be great

thank you so much, i'm a runner and i was trying to find some useful feet exercise to improve my running gait, cause several studies done support the intrinsic foot exercise theory. Your explanation is the best I've found so far. THANKSSS

This one of the least helpful videos I have seen. So many anatomical terminology and not showing which part of the body/foot they are relating to, not being able to see the picture because it is out of focus and out of frame.

Very detailed presentation. Thank you. As for orthotics, these have enabled me to recover from plantar fasciitis related arch flare-ups a number of times. I recently tried walking barefioot around the house during our warmer summer weather, but it almost crippled me. I could barely walk. I have tried "short foot" but I cannot follow the instructions. I don't quite get it.

prolonged toes spacers caused nerve loss sensitivity in between my big toe

Don't forget to treat the trigger points that go with the hypermobility and lax ligaments. And have the patient assessed for co-occurring ADHD and autism.

Dr Emily. What shoes do you recommend for people with bunion? Xero or Hoka ? I am using toe correctors and arch support and have moderate bunion.

Very interesting activation sequence, very few movement(and no dental !) professionals actually know that your tongue is a postural organ,so thanks for remindement :-) ."Short and sweet" activation.

A lot of information, I need to watch it more. I can see, feel, what you're talking about.

Thank you for sharing this incredibly valuable information. I was hoping you could help me with an issue I have been dealing with for the past 5 years. I believe I injured my right foot in 2019, during this time I was playing basketball competitively for 3 hours a day, 5 days a week. fast forward 5 years, I am 26 and I am having symptoms of my entire right core and leg weakening like crazy and trouble breathing to the right side of my abdomen. When I try to run or exercise I feel extremely sore in my neck and back. I have noticed my right foot is a lot more arched than my left, it looks and feels as if my right abductor hallucis is tight 24/7 and walking/running does not feel as smooth and coordinated as my left foot. Moreover, when I try to stretch my right calf, i don't feel it nearly as much as my left calf. I was wondering if you could give me insight on my specific issue and what exercises you believe I should be doing. When I do the shortening exercises I can breathe much better but I am feeling my abductor hallucis tightening up again. Should I be focusing on loosening this muscle or should I continue strengthening it. Thank you in advance for the extremely helpful videos. I would greatly appreciate any sort of response. 🙏

1st like 😂. Thanks for uploading

Thank you

Do you have any articles or videos about fat pad athropy, especially of the forfoot and large toe? I was diagnosed with this in January. I've was also diagnosed with mild bunions last fall for which I'm already doing toe spacers and foot exercises to manage. The docs i've seen are contributing my large pain to those conditions. I've been unble to walk long distances, let alone run, comfortably since last summer. I'm also unable to do so many other activities such as barre, yoga, calf raises, lunges, bear crawls, ect. I'm not even 50 and feel like I'm being resigned to bulky orthodics and becoming the youngest member of silver sneakers. It is seriously depressing me. Also, do you have a list or data base of EBFA certified providers/practitioners? I wasn't able to find that info on your website. Sorry if not appropriate. I would perfer to DM but YT doesn't provide that option.

Neither are ideal but I'm wondering if its worse to be pigeon foot or duck foot.

Thank god someone finally is saying something right

fantastic video....what is your stand on forefootwalking?

I too would greatly appreciate a webinar on neuromas.

PLEASE do a webinar on neuromas. Thank you for your generous sharing of knowledge.

Yes please do a webinar on neuromas!

Thankyou for linking the foot posture to the deep front, spiral and lateral fascial lines. I train structural tension to ski instructors and this presentation provides insight into the strong connections we use to ski more efficiently! 🤓
