Summary
Could the shoes you’re wearing every day be the reason for foot pain, ankle issues, bunions, plantar fasciitis, knee pain or even bad posture?

If you’ve ever struggled with plantar fasciitis, shin splints, knee pain, or just want to improve your walking and balance, this episode is a must!
