| Look at the foot on the left. See how crooked it is? This is a problem that will cause other problems all the way up the leg and into the back.
Now look at the foot on the right. See how straight it is? This is how the foot should look. Why is it straight? Because it's being properly supported. Nature designed us to walk on natural surfaces like grass, dirt and sand. We were never neant to spend our lives walking on hard, ungiving surfaces like stone or cement. If we don't follow natures way we pay the price. The price is pain and problems from our feet all the way up into the rest of the body. This is what is meant by the Kinetic Chain. |

| We live on a planet with gravity and we walk on our feet. How our feet move affects how the rest of our spine moves.
Think of the Leaning Tower of Pisa. It leans because the bottom part is tilted. If our feet are tilted the leg has to tilt and the knee is directly affected. So it goes up the spine to the rest of the body. Take a look at the pictures of the feet at the top of the page again. In the bottom picture the right foot is corrected using a device called an Orthotic. At the Green Chiropractic Centre we make extensive use of orthotics to help our patinet regain their health by correcting the Kinetic Chain of your body. |
