In reply to Anya. Thanks Anya, I got the NorthSole extra cushion and they seem to help a little. Sadly there's no way to improve the comfort of the environment at all because of the nature of the job itself; it's not that they don't want to accommodate, it's just not possible. I think massaging outside of work is helping with muscle pain although skeletal pain persists.

Thank you for sharing. This is very helpful since I experience similar issues (hypermobility, toes up while walking and pain in the right part of the body after pregnancy). One thing I recently have noticed is that I always pick up things from the floor with my right hip/leg and as a mom I do that A LOT, which might be one of the reasons my right side is overworked and my left is undertrained, mom picking up syndrom 😉

Thank you for sharing! I also have noticed my toes lifting when I walk and curling when trying to ground down, but on my right. I have also recently realized my right hip and glutes are weaker, all of which I think is contributing to my left hip pain. Bodies are amazing! I will add in some of these exercises and hope to see a change. Thank you! PS. Is there a place to submit requests? For shoe suggestions for a type of foot/issue or for you to use your clout for a specific type of shoe to be made.

In reply to Lacey. Hi, An experienced pilates instructor could help a lot by using apparatuses such as the Pilates Foot Corrector, and the Pilates Toe Stretcer / Toe Gizmo

In reply to Lacey. Oof, that is rough! I would start with adding some cushion or an insole to your shoes (a few ideas here) - because standing that long on hard floor is a lot to ask of anyone's feet. And do you have any way of breaking up the standing? Can you put anything at the desk to stand on that is softer/different texture? Even a stool next to you that you could put a foot up on would help keep you changing positions. I would also imagine that exercises and stretches when you are not at work would help, but that is more Gait Happens terrain.

Hi Anya, do you think exercises and stretches could help with alleviating pain from standing? I’m currently trying to figure out a solution for my foot pain which is probably stemming from standing for 8+ hours per day on a hard tile floor at work. Unfortunately, there really isn’t a way around that aspect since it’s part of the nature of the job, and I’ve already been wearing barefoot shoes for years, so I’m running out of ideas. Is there any way to make the standing more tolerable and fix this pain? Thanks!

In reply to Dawn Detweiler. Jen and Courtney are in Colorado, and they do in-person consultations like this one via their local practices Total Health Solutions and Kinetic Chiropractic. They also do virtual consultations via their Gait Happens company where you send them video from all angles and they can tell a lot from it. I don't know of any other places to go.

Where can one get a gait analysis done? I feel like I need to get this done and then have a therapist help me make corrections.

Thanks for sharing!!
