Want To Beat Foot Pain?

Foot pain is a common problem and is hardly surprising when you think that the average person takes approximately half-a-million steps a year.  By the time we reach the age of 70, we’ll have walked the equivalent distance of four times round the earth. 

The foot is made up of 26 bones, 33 joints, 19 muscles and over 100 ligaments.  Problems in any one or a combination of these can cause pain.
