HIGH - HEEL HELL

in #fitness8 years ago

The major issues for most woman is the amount of time we spend each day walking around in high heels or wedges. There is a significant research available that shows the damage done to the spine, hips, knees, ankles and feet by these shoes, mainly through the way they alter our posture and gait while walking.

Spending too much time in them and you also start to reshape and realign muscleand fascia in your lower legs, which has a knock-on effect all the way up your posterior chain of muscles.

DON'T DITCH THE HIGH HEELS - JUST BE SENSIBLE

1 Have variety of heel height and try to spend the amount of time in the highest heeled shoes

2 Maintain flexibility in your legs and hips by performing regular stretching and mobility work. Stretch before and after wearing heels.
3 Walk barefoot at home as much as possible or have a pair of flat shoes in your bag or in the office to walk around between meetings.
