Pain in the feet can hit at any time. Whether it’s while scoring your next goal or carving it out on the slopes, we’ve got your feet covered with comfort in mind!
When standing, the body is a closed kinetic chain, meaning what happens in the feet can affect the ankles, knees, hips and back. If the feet are abnormally positioned or their alignment is off, the rest of the body could suffer.
Programs such as OHIP (Ontario Health Insurance Plan), HIBC (Health Insurance British Columbia), and MSI (Medical Services Insurance) typically do not cover the items or services offered at BioPed for your foot health.
If you’re dealing with painful toes, especially around the base of the big toe, everyday activities like walking, climbing stairs, or even standing still can become challenging. One of the most common causes? Arthritis. This degenerative joint condition affects millions and often hits the small joints of the feet first. Symptoms can range from big and small toe joint pain, ball of foot pain, stiffness, swelling, redness, bunions, toe deformities, corns, calluses and difficulties walking.
Soccer can be a rough sport, especially as we get older and still want to play just as hard. Don’t let your favourite sport cause pain that stems into daily life. Read below to find out how you can keep those knees feeling young all throughout your day and into the second half of the game.
Foot pain is more common than you might think—and it often shows up in your heel, the ball of your foot, or around your toes. These small areas bear a lot of pressure every day. When something’s off, even just standing or walking around the house can become painful. The good news? With the right combination of custom orthotics and properly fitted shoes, you can find relief and help prevent things from getting worse.
Ankle pain can be incredibly frustrating! Whether it is from an old injury, wear and tear from everyday activities or sprains, it can limit how much we move and enjoy life. There is good news, ankle pain can be managed and one of the best options is through ankle bracing.
