Hi Mary Jo,Thank you for the comment.It deednps on what you mean by intervention. I consider transitioning to minimalism as an intervention. It is my opinion that just about everyone has partially collapsed or fallen arches, it has to do with wearing shoes. We have shoes placed on our feet before we take our first step. Our arches never even have a chance to strengthen and develop correctly to begin with. It is important to note, that switching to minimalism is not a cure all. Minimalism is a small part of an overall lifestyle and therapy protocol. By itself, it is very limiting. A full intervention includes: deep tissue massage therapy, self-massage, flexibility, corrective strength training, functional fitness, a well designed program, and time. I do believe that for people with severely weakened arches, the minimal use of arch supports is necessary. I stress minimal, the ultimate goal is to build the strength of the body to be capable of natural movement without aid, or with as little aid as possible. This is an important question to ask with each client. The degree of minimalism will depend upon each client's individual history. The ultimate goal is pain free movement. It is easy to get caught up in the idealogical battle over barefoot is best, or shoes are best. For the majority of people, the best answer will lie somewhere in the middle. Thanks again for the comment.Jesse James Retherford

Hi Michelle,Thanks again for commenting. Yes it is a toerhy, but it is a toerhy that has a significant amount of scientific support, which is growing each week. Walking and running with a heel strike is also just a toerhy. There is not a single study or group of studies that proves factual validity to either toerhy. Which is why it is important to have these discussions. I expressed in this blog, that this is my toerhy, to attempt to make the point that there are different opinions on the subject. It is up to each individual to make up their own mind, and figure out what works best for them. I do not leave out that running and walking are entirely different biomechanical activities. In fact, I clearly state the exact opposite. Walking and running are nearly identical biomechanically. The heel has a purpose in walking and running with forefoot strike. It is supposed to strike the ground, just not first. Making the jump that without heel strike we would be on all fours and running like a dogs is an extreme jump and I don't know where you intended to go with that statement. Yes, when people change their gait pattern without guidance, they get hurt. When people continue to walk with an improper gait pattern, they get hurt. It is my hope and goal to provide some guidance so that people can make the transition with minimal pain and injury. There is an epidemic of chronic pain and injury in this country due to poor postural mechanics and lifestyle. There is something inherently wrong with the way we currently move. Maintaining the current status quo of medical treatments, such as injections, surgeries, and prescription remedies, does not work other than acting as a very expensive band aid. If we, as individuals, wish to feel better, we must look at our most basic movement patterns and be willing to make fundamental shifts in them, even if these shifts go against age old popular culture. We will not feel better until we learn to move better. I am a very excited blogger, and I am so much more. I love what I do for a living. Over the years, I have had the opportunity to learn, touch, teach, and help improve the lives of my clients, and have seen my life improve as well. I am passionate about what I do. Thanks again for the comment. I very much appreciate the input you have been providing over the weeks. You are both complimentary and challenging, both of which help me grow in this new endeavor of blogging. Thanks.Jesse James Retherfordhttp//www.tao-fit.com
