What Your Shoes Are Telling You
Your shoes record how your body actually moves — about 10,000 steps a day of evidence. Five checks that read that record, including one thing worth checking even on brand-new shoes.
Do this if: you have aches you can't explain, or you've never looked closely at how your shoes wear.
The 60-Second Walk Test
Film yourself walking and check three things. Walking is the most repeated thing your body does, so a small imbalance gets multiplied thousands of times a day — which is why it can quietly undo other good work.
Do this if: something feels uneven, or an old injury still seems to affect how you move.
The Pain Checklist
Five signs your pain is likely to keep coming back. The difference between getting relief and getting fixed — and how to tell which one you've actually been buying.
Do this if: your pain keeps returning after treatment that seemed to work.

What these can — and can't — tell you
Each of these guides is good at showing you that something is off. None of them can tell you why.
That's not a limitation I'm hiding — it's the honest situation. Uneven wear under one big toe could be coming from the foot, the ankle, the hip, the pelvis, an old injury you've stopped thinking about, or the shoes themselves. Those look similar from the outside and need completely different corrections. Guessing wrong costs months.
Want the actual answer?
The 90-minute head-to-toe assessment tests the whole chain — foot, ankle, knee, hip, back — with hands-on muscle and movement testing. You leave knowing what's driving your pain and the plan to correct it. Then we re-test, so progress is something you can see on paper, not just feel.
Bring the shoes you wear most — and your walking video if you filmed one.
These guides are general education, not a diagnosis or medical advice. If you have numbness, weakness, loss of balance, loss of bladder or bowel control, fever, unexplained weight loss, or pain following a serious injury, please see a physician first.
