Chipewyan Lake, Canada (prHWY.com) March 24, 2013 - Our feet are our body's shock absorbers and whenever we walk, they take the impact and support our full body's weight.

Doctor Sherkin understands how the heels are the parts or our feet which take the full weight and resist, but in some cases, not without pain problems or other types of issues which can affect our comfort and our health.
Podiatrists have a very well documented knowledge of the foot, and they can easily tell their patients what's wrong with their feet and how they got the problems in the first place. Heel pain for instance, can be caused by a number of things, and some of them are bad shoes, shoes which are made from materials which affect the skin of the foot or the foot itself, or shoes with low levels of cushioning and hard materials which don't flex, especially in the sole. The soles which were made from a tough material don't offer the right cushioning for the heel both when walking and running. A shoe with such soles also causes a problem for the ankle, because it doesn't have the best support on ground impact and while the heel is prone to pains, the ankle can be affected so badly that surgery is needed. Foot orthotics Toronto experts, like Doctor Sherkin, can recommend you the best orthotic implants for your footwear, in order to protect your foot from impact and prevent most of the problems coming out of the simple act of walking or even standing on your feet. Foot orthotics were inspired from the footwear which was especially made for athletes, and if it helped athletes perform better in sports, it can certainly help regular people run, walk and stand up without a problem. The benefits also happen in the long run, because the foot's problems don't continue to advance, and the foot is protected no matter how you step.
