Musculoskeletal structure is directly related to imbalances within the framework of the spine, these imbalances begin at our foundation (the feet).

Fallen arches (pronation) cause the lower leg, or tibia, to rotate inward, affecting the angle between the tibia and femur. This puts extra stress on the inner part of the knee. This changed knee angle can cause the hip on the same side to drop. This hip drop leads to an unstable foundation for the spine above.

Scoliosis (side bend in the spine) can develop and create many musculoskeletal imbalances which in turn result in strain/sprain of muscles and ligament and possibly disc related issues.  

It is important for all people to have a stable pelvic foundation. Common treatment for this is the use of orthotics (arch supports) in footwear. 

A chiropractor can provide expert and professional guidance to achieve optimal results when using Aped-X arch supports.
