The more time I spend on the health and body side of TH-cam, the more it seems that I have inherited just about every negative body feature in existence.
Am I missing something? The video details what causes flat feet (which was educational) but doesn't seem to answer the question in the title: How to fix flat feet. They direct you to their 'program' for that.
Yeah, it's a 10-minute ad. And he still managed to display his shallow understanding of the science in that time. Less flat-footedness in barefoot walkers is not necessarily due to their walking in barefeet, but the fact that people who walk in barefeet tend to spend more time walking on softer surfaces rather than concrete. We are not adapted to be constantly walking on hard surfaces, so the right shoes will help most of us more than going barefoot will. But yeah if you are running through the prairies chasing rabbits all day I guess he's right.
@@wallis_sin-yu Sorry to tell you: it doesn´t is the result on walking on concrete. The weak muskles are at cause. Mostly because of all day sitting and like he explains: the shoes. Greetings, a physical therapist.
@@mikeocksmall6513 So what? Your feet are inside shoes, so the boots do most of the work where your feet cant work as intended and therefore your muscles get weak in the foot. Being a bricklayer has nothing do with it.

I'm 20 and I have flat feet. Everyone makes fun of the way I walk and stuff but it doesn't really bother me😂 ..My only concern is the pain I'm going to feel later on.😔
I'm 18 and have this crap. Though my feet aren't completely flat, I have a minimal arch, but it is still not enough. I'm doing exercises, also I recommend walking on gravel or like a rocky beach, trails etc. and any uneven surface so you can train and use your feet the way they are supposed to be used. Barefoot shoes aren't good for walking on concrete. They offer 0 support and there's 0 benefit from walking on such a flat, hard surface. I think some cushion can help a little bit. Either way, you should always look forward to walking on uneven surfaces. I also think of getting toe socks so I can walk in them unshod on gravel etc.
It also hurts a lot when you're wearing shoes, at least that's how it was when I was young. I couldn't stand them they felt like cages for my feet and all my feet wanted to do was break out, I couldn't stand it till I was older.
I tell myself I have royalty in my bloodline since strenuous time on my feet causes me to rest a lot. Then I laugh at all my arched foot peasants working long hours in the field as I prop my non-callous feet up after taking a 5 minute stroll outside. But this brought me back to reality. Very informative - thanks.
Would be nice to see proof that someone that has been rehabilitated. I just never heard of someone ever regaining an arch. Maybe you guys could post a video of a before and after of a client you helped?
I am 38 years old and have been wearing orthotocs since i was a kid and i was always told that my problem is structural and i need orthotocs all the time... however, i started doijg foot strengthening exercises as im starting muay thai and we train barefoot and in 1 week ive already noticed slight improvement with my feet, at 38 yrs old is my flat feet reversible and have i been lied to my whole life by podiatrists? Thanks
You haven’t been lied by the podiatrists, they just don’t know any better. They advise based on studies and limited beliefs. They’re only humans with a title you know.
@@МаріяПольчій-р5п yes...i still do exercises before workong out and before my muay thai training.. my ankle alignment has corrected and my arch has corrected... 1. I use kettlebell to massage my and loosen my calf muscel 2. I use massage ball to loosen my shin muscles 3. I use massage ball under my feet 4. I use resistant band to stretch calf 5. I stand on plates and do heel raises making sure at bottom im stretching calf 6. I do a foot stabling exercise where im strengthening and activating the big toe muscle in my feet which helps keep the arch... i didnt do this programme.. i did exercises given to me by my miay thai strength and conditioning coach.. it is fixable and even if ypur arch can not fully be fixed, you can fix ur alignmsnt and strengthen the right muscles so u foot moves as normal and flat feet wont effect u
@@OsmanKann can you please share some of these exercises or send them to me please I really need this I have a lot of trouble with my hip and knee because of my foot I just have one left foot that's off so I need this so much??
Bottom line - he wants you to buy “their program.” The scanty info here may make some sense to some informed ppl, but for the majority - it’s useless unless they buy “their program”
Just last week i found out i am flat footed. It was my friend who noticed and told me and i didnt know about it. After that i searched about flat foot and i really am. Now i understand why my ankle, knees, and back hurts. Also my job requires a lot of standing so i almost dragged my other leg upon going home. Walking for a long time causes my feet to hurt a lot .
Watch this vid th-cam.com/video/MaVAsuwYacE/w-d-xo.html and your problems will get better quickly, but do the exercises EVERY DAY, believe me its worth it and not time consuming at all.
My feet so flat to the point where I’m just thankful to have feet. The problem is affecting all my bones in my body. My next step is a pain doctor for meds and therapy
Fix? I have 'fallen' arches. I am developmentally flat-footed, not congenitally flat-footed. I've been told by many doctors that the arch is ultimately supported by ligaments. And... ligaments are kinda like an elastic band. If you stretch it too far for too long a period of time it won't return to its original (shorter) length. My understanding is that you can't do that with any kind of exercise. It requires surgery, and there are a variety of surgeries I've heard about to deal with this issue. Not minor surgery, however. I believe what you're talking about is mitigating many of the adverse consequences of having fallen arches. I'm not sure I'd call that a 'fix', however. Once one stops doing the exercises, after some period of time the arches are just going to go back to whatever the ligaments will accommodate. Are you claiming that your exercises can restore the lost elasticity of the supporting ligaments and permanently shorten them up?
This video cleared many doubts and confusions.very well researched and concise and well presented.i have been suffering from the foot pain lately and had no clue what to do about it. Now I know. Thanks for such insightful video.
I've had high arches but fallen ones as well. I am in the 95th percentile for high arches in over 50 countries. Genetically I have huge calfs and never worked out as a kid. Also, I was told by chiropractors to wear arches and shoes in the house. Today I have weak feet, fallen arches and bent knees. I'm 22 years old and this video explained everything perfectly so that I understood how my past issues caused this to happen over time. I now have back, hip, knee issues at 22. Exercise and stay healthy please. Losing weight significantly helps too!
I'm 24 and been having severe hip and especially knee pain on one side for over a year. I really hope I can fix my weak feet and that I will soon not be in pain anymore... even had physiotherapie and special soles made for me - nothing seems to work. Good luck on your journey!
@@jamesepicmamba , I’ve had on and off foot pain since I was a kid. Very weak feet. Severe turn in of one knee. ( im thin), I’m almost 60 now, and I bought myself a pair of beginner barefoot shoes. I just got them about 2 weeks ago and im only wearing them around house and a little outside to get used to them. Im not kidding, I think im already seeing a difference! ( I’ve also been stretching my feet, and bending and stretching at the hips) I try to stretch daily now. I feel like my balance is getting better! You’re young, please don’t give up!!
Back, hip, and knees? Lol thats all boy? Maybe try getting out of the house and working all day everyday. Get some scars and good story's behind them. Gain 20 or 30 more years, and then you can bitch
@@Babumoshai.. it's called varying severity. Just because you didn't experience it as bad, which you should be grateful for because we didn't all have it as good as you, doesn't mean that the person is lying or those symptoms don't exist. Flat feet have caused me excruciating pain throughout my whole lower body for very long. What the person explained is something I've had to deal with as well, and many people did too and still do. Fix your attitude and ignorance before invalidating somebody's struggle.
I have a curious point I personally have some low arches, which don't affect me usually, but when I searched for information, I noticed that many people would suggest that we wear shoes with arch support (that is, shoes with protrusions on the arch of the insole), saying It can help balance the force on the soles of the feet and relieve fatigue on the soles of the feet. At the same time, I also found that some people think that we should try to avoid shoes with arch support, because arch support will replace or reduce the force of our original muscles, causing muscle degeneration or even atrophy. What I'm curious about is: 1. Which of the above statements is more correct or has more correct parts? 2. If don’t consider the problems of flat feet or high arches that affect your life, for people with normal arches or people with low arches like me but the problem is not serious, should try to choose shoes with arch support or Shoes without arch support? Hope to know your opinion
I'm just getting into the space of barefoot vs non barefoot and I think barefoot is the way to go no matter your arch size. I hope you can find your answer for your questions soon.
I've been useing wide shoes or vibrams walking an building up on runs.. My left foot is spreading and now aches and is now getting to widen for normal running trainers 😂🤦♀️
Some people do not develop flat feet. They are born with loose ligaments and tendons and never ever had arches and never developed them even after exercises, support, shoe modifications or any other intervention. Four generations of my family have extreme flat feet and very pronated ankles.
I feel enormous pain when walking due to flat feet but tbh I can't devote 80% of my time to that issue and that's what these never-ending" programs" like yours are about.
I’m sorry to hear about your foot issues. However, I’m also sorry to say that there is no quick fix or ‘magic pill’ for this. One needs to put in the necessary effort into claiming back their health. While we can guide and coach people on the right path, the hard work still needs to be done by them.
@@barefootstrength Well I guess there isn't. I'm sorry for sounding rude, I was angry since on top of this I also happen to suffer from Depression and Anxiety, both quite resistant to treatment.

I’m 12 years old with flat feet and whenever I play soccer or even run for a short amount of time my feet start to hurt. I wear insoles but that makes my feet hurt even more.

@@LELOUCH101 u will hv problem to maintain balance and some times ur leg will pain insanely if ur below 18,it happened to me (i hv flat feet since birth)
At 31 years old, I’ve had flat feet as long as I can remember. Never had any issues until now. Heel pain. Low back pain. And I have a sideways curvature in my spine that I just discovered leading to tightness in just one side of my back. I hope switching to barefoot shoes and strengthening my feet will help alleviate these problems
I'm 19 and I have the same problems as you do 😶 I used to be obese so it kind of caused me to develop these issues sooner. I'm not obese anymore, but I still feel the pain (although drastically less) I hope it gets better for us now that we know the causes ❤ best of luck to you!
Flat feet is a very sucky thing your ankle is like the abdominal motherboard of your lower body it controls everything without it ,it can make you very injury prone affects balance in sports which won’t allow you to reach full potential and mess with posture in the back also affect hip flexibility and explosiveness in sports i had custom insoles installed from my ankle doctor i felt the change immediately but they were painful to adjust to this time im dealing with the pain then if i see no difference i will consider surgery but this video was basically just a book advertisement
My arch actually goes out and away from my foot haha even raising my foot off the ground it stays flat. It can be extremely painful and inconvenient but there are worse things to have!
I’m flat footed, and have been affected by this my entire life. Being born and raised in Hawaii, I’ve been barefoot while inside the house as well as when I played outside. I’ve since then moved from Hawaii to California. Even in the mainland, we still predominantly are barefoot indoors; even going outside for minor tasks like check the mail, get something from the car, etc…barefoot. I’ve come across these videos because TH-cam (Google) must have found out that I am suffering with bunions, so doing what the algorithm does, she goes, “hey, you might want to watch this…”. My bunion (predominantly on my left foot) is most likely caused by my flat footedness. In my case, where flat footedness may be genetic issue, can this be corrected?
I had messed up legs when I was born. Then I have extremely flat feet. I can't go for hours standing up. Now my ankle hurts so I wear a brace, I wear orthotics from roadrunner everyday. I'm not sure if it's Genetics or my muscles that are not working. all I want is to not have pain on my feet away.
Why on earth was I told flat feet were just a hereditary foot type -_- Also, I rarely ever wore or wear shoes and have had flat feet my whole life. My entire family does too. Im talking mom, dad, aunts and uncles on both sides. I’m so confused.
Bunions are also taken as a sign of ill-fitting shoes; crushing the toes together and creating these damaging and foot-altering bunions that reduce balance and stability. However, they can also be genetic and therefore shoes merely exacerbate a predisposition. Your flat-footedness sounds genetic as well, thus you're already at a disadvantage though perhaps that's all the more reason to pursue arch strengthening exercises and use barefoot shoes in order to overcome that which your genetics has burdened you with. In all demographics there exists the nth% that seem to have all the traits of something that is exemplified by negative connotations. But don't feel disheartened, that just makes you a perfect example that sometimes it's our genetics we are fighting against, not just the footwear or clothing additions that modify how our bodies perform...
My right foot has all these problems but my left is chillin Whenever I run my right foot is always in pain that makes me want to stop but my left foot feels like it’s not even being used
All of a sudden I feel arthritis level pains in my right foot after jamming some footy. Didn't get kicked or anything in fact it gradually got worse. I took a nap and afterwards it was worse. My toe feels swollen and if I try to move it in either direction it just invokes the pain. The pain on top of my foot feels like a swollen pulled muscle like how. At the same time it hurts even when I lightly touch it bro. Oh my Lord I pray to get this fixed. I wanna play BALL!!😅⚽️⚽️
I actually know that I have weak glutes so I decided to check if my knees were looking inward like you’ve shown. And lo and behold they actually are. So I decided to rotate them back to where they supposed to be and my arch actually raises. Damn, internet is really a blessing.
Thanks, i just tried rotating the kness to face forward like you mentioned, youre right it automatically lifts the arches and you can feel your gluts tighten.
What would the recommended steps be if walking bare feet gets really uncomfortable? Gotta stand for hours a day, and I couldn't fathom doing that without a cushioned, supported shoe arch
Though I don't have to stand for hours, I understand the punishment of a hard surface on the feet (or perhaps not the strongest of feet). What I find best is alternating between footware options during the day and perhaps removing shoes to stretch and relax feet while put up and at rest. All that said, I never thought I could walk longer distances without my high-end gel runners, yet now find I go quite well in a pair of sport sandals, like Merrell.... all are arched mind you, though the sandal, less so.
Watch this vid th-cam.com/video/MaVAsuwYacE/w-d-xo.html and your problems will get better quickly, but do the exercises EVERY DAY, believe me its worth it and not time consuming at all.
We are all born with flat feet. The foot arches develop by the age of around 6. However, if the arches fail to develop properly by that age, it may be a sign that there were certain lifestyle factors in place at the time which were not conducive for proper foot development. For example, there are studies which show that when children spend the majority of their time wearing shoes before the age of 6, they have a significantly greater chance of having flat feet in life comparatively to those who were predominantly barefoot. Despite all this, the foot arches can still be stimulated and developed later in life using the steps presented in this video.
I’m not sure that I can talk because I’m 14, however this is very painful when exercising. I suggest trying to correct it early on, or at least that’s what I over hear my parents saying.
I am Orthotist from the Philippines ,all of us are born flat feet up to 3yr old and from 3yrs old the foot arch are starting to develop There are cases that don't developed, , Normally I put customized Arch support or insoles . Arch support has to be put inside the shoe..
You can't fix a flat foot, if you do not fix the wrong posture in hip, shoulder blade and shoulder. Walking without heels and with swinging arms fixes this. For the last 4 years, I've done this every day for 2 hours. You must walk far. Like from Berlin to Beijing. It was worth it. I'm nearly straight now. Back pain is gone. The arch is restored. My left foot was 1 centimeter longer, than the right one. Now they are same length. Shoes with heels and shoulder bag make scoliosis. That's the problem. The inventors of this items brought more pain to mankind, than anybody else.
ive had flat feet my entire life and went to many many doctors with none of them knowing, I told my parents and due to it switching the pain between all 3 pelvis feet and knees they thought that I was lying. I'm not sure if I should exercise or just stay in bed and let it heal on its own. Now I can actually tell between what is going on and how to stop it. Thanks For The Help.
I'd like to say thank you for these videos. I suffer from plantar fasciitis and bone spurs from working on my feet. I tried two podiatrists over the years thus have had orthodontics, made it all worse. The information you are sharing is priceless. American Drs don't take time to educate their patients, it's in and out the door. I've ordered toe separators and am going to buy barefoot shoes as soon as I have money to. I've worked barefoot two days, against rules but I told my boss it's that or I'm calling off as I can't walk. So next check shoes! For now stretches and toe spacers daily. Thank you from the bottom of my heart to my mending feet!
I have moderate bunions, moderate flat feet, and moderate plantar fasciitis. I've been wearing wide "yoga foam" skechers now almost exclusively for almost a decade, and very supportive shoes, "strutz" support for the PF, and toe spacers for the bunions. My health has declined significantly because I cannot run or jump. It seems 4/5th of the recommended types of cardio make my feet hurt. But I cannot afford bunion surgery. This channel gives me hope, although I'm a bit reluctant. What should I start with first? Any way to get a consultation with you guys? Thanks
Christopher, I just myself got barefoot type shoes to start with. Not wearing to gym, but trying to wear when I’m just moving around. I’ve only had them 2 weeks and I feel a difference. I’m also stretching my toes and ankles and bending to stretch my hamstrings. I feel like it’s helping! And I plan on continuing! Please buy a cheap pair to start with! I’m so happy I saw channels like these so my stiff flat feet can start to heal! I hope you have great success!
@@sniperpichi6773 absolutely. If you watch this guy's videos often you'll see he's a big advocate of going barefoot. You should watch some of his videos on it. We've all heard the expression "if you don't use it, you lose it." Modern cushiony shoes allow the foot to not do any work among other things which causes foot problems like collapsed arches.
@@gabriellameattray9778 good news my sister tried to fix it by stretching my foot and it hurt like hell but after a hour it’s fixed it doesn’t hurt anymore thx for your help though 😊👌🏻
All babies have flat feet. Arches form during early childhood. If arches don't develop - or they collapse later in life (fallen arches) - flat feet can cause pain and affect walking.
I'm 25 and waiting on Xrays for my feet and for custom Orthotics. My podiatrist gave my the opposite advice and suggested NEVER walking barefoot. Do you think that's a general rule or one that can be specific to the severity of flatfeet?
Same! I got a flare of plantar fasciitis and fixed it within 3 days but no longer walking barefoot on hardwood floor and massaging my feet and rolling it with a cold water bottle. I sometimes have feet pain and put on my slides and they already feel better.
I wonder if wearing the orthotics for support and comfort, combined with going barefoot for strengthening could be a solution for you. (podiatrists, imo, offer advice to support their industry, ie.. custom orthotics) dunno, but you can experiment...
Great video. You mentioned 40% of the US population is suffering from flat feet or a collapsed arch. Now, about 80% of the Amrican population obese and fat. Half of the problems with the arch won't be fixed until they fix their body weight and shape. Spot fixing is hard as long as the foundation is non optimal
You’ve no idea how much your advise has helped me since youtube recommended this channel. For years I have endured a bunion on my right foot with my small toes joining in so to speak, it was embarrassing to look at and meant I couldn’t wear any type of open shoe as the large toe tab would be uncomfortable. After one episode I looked down how I walked and ran only to seeing my right foot was angling inwards from a weak ankle causing my bunion, it was literally a eureka moment and I knew it could be solved by myself. Well just want to say thanks I have renewed hope, Merry Christmas.
Confused , so do not wear arch support shoes ? My work boots kill my feet , I put in arch support pads ...now I can work all day pain free. Is this only making my situation worse ?

I wonder if fallen arches and bunions are the whole reason that I began to have lower back pain while doing normal walking. My brother was born with flat feet. I have looked at pictures my teenaged years while barefoot and I walked pronated. But when I wore high heels you couldn't see that. Interesting. But the back pain I get while walking is very similar to labor pains. About two inches over my tailbone.

@@barefootstrength your saying I can fixed my collapsed arch without surgery? Because with out my arch supposed sole’s.. my foot feels like it’s being stabbed when I run....
According to my holistic chiropractor, if you already have a sunken arch, barefoot is a bad idea. He recommends a triple arch shoe insert made for your own feet.
Dude my both feet were pronated and my left foot is slightly overpronated and this combination will ruined my entire lower body shape like knee valgus uneven hips and I tried lots of exercises for strengthen arch and glutes from past 6 months they don't give any permanent result . And I consult lots of doctors but no one improve my legs and finally I conclude that if your ankles were weak whatever exercises you do for your fallen arch they're never gonna be correct and finally I started strengthen my ankles from past 1weak believe me I observed tremendous changes in my leg 😊
Walking posture seriously helped me increase my foot arch. As a child I had horrendously flat feet, focusing on my back posture and a strong heel-toe motion whilst walking significantly reduced my flat feet.
@@lorenzparnada7246 I think he means putting down your heel first and then rolling your foot on the ground to the toe lifting your heel up again when walking
Its easy to fix. I just had my musclebound uncle bend my feet till they were curved. Then he tied a rope around them to make a permanent arch. After a week of this my feet are extremely arched. You should have seen me win my first 100 meter dash. Thanks again uncle Loui.
Flat feet are literally the worst. I'm sure there are plenty of people who have taken their own lives due to the constant, unbearable pain caused by them. Having flat feet and the pain that comes with it often makes me regret the day I was born.

Start wearing barefoot shoes or no shoes at all

I tell myself I have royalty in my bloodline since strenuous time on my feet causes me to rest a lot. Then I laugh at all my arched foot peasants working long hours in the field as I prop my non-callous feet up after taking a 5 minute stroll outside. But this brought me back to reality. Very informative - thanks.
That's a great way of thinking! I'm gonna use that from now on! lol
🤣🤣🤣
Simp,son?????
I can so relate.
hilarious, lol
Would be nice to see proof that someone that has been rehabilitated. I just never heard of someone ever regaining an arch. Maybe you guys could post a video of a before and after of a client you helped?
I am 38 years old and have been wearing orthotocs since i was a kid and i was always told that my problem is structural and i need orthotocs all the time... however, i started doijg foot strengthening exercises as im starting muay thai and we train barefoot and in 1 week ive already noticed slight improvement with my feet, at 38 yrs old is my flat feet reversible and have i been lied to my whole life by podiatrists? Thanks
You haven’t been lied by the podiatrists, they just don’t know any better. They advise based on studies and limited beliefs. They’re only humans with a title you know.
You already have the curve right now? I mean your flatfeet has been fixed to the normal one?
Are your feet are fixed now?? Please reply 🙏🏻
@@МаріяПольчій-р5п yes...i still do exercises before workong out and before my muay thai training.. my ankle alignment has corrected and my arch has corrected... 1. I use kettlebell to massage my and loosen my calf muscel
2. I use massage ball to loosen my shin muscles
3. I use massage ball under my feet
4. I use resistant band to stretch calf
5. I stand on plates and do heel raises making sure at bottom im stretching calf
6. I do a foot stabling exercise where im strengthening and activating the big toe muscle in my feet which helps keep the arch... i didnt do this programme.. i did exercises given to me by my miay thai strength and conditioning coach.. it is fixable and even if ypur arch can not fully be fixed, you can fix ur alignmsnt and strengthen the right muscles so u foot moves as normal and flat feet wont effect u
@@OsmanKann can you please share some of these exercises or send them to me please I really need this I have a lot of trouble with my hip and knee because of my foot I just have one left foot that's off so I need this so much??

Bottom line - he wants you to buy “their program.” The scanty info here may make some sense to some informed ppl, but for the majority - it’s useless unless they buy “their program”
Just last week i found out i am flat footed. It was my friend who noticed and told me and i didnt know about it. After that i searched about flat foot and i really am.
Now i understand why my ankle, knees, and back hurts. Also my job requires a lot of standing so i almost dragged my other leg upon going home. Walking for a long time causes my feet to hurt a lot .
Some of blood vessels are bulging out like buds in my foot
Watch this vid th-cam.com/video/MaVAsuwYacE/w-d-xo.html and your problems will get better quickly, but do the exercises EVERY DAY, believe me its worth it and not time consuming at all.
My feet so flat to the point where I’m just thankful to have feet. The problem is affecting all my bones in my body. My next step is a pain doctor for meds and therapy
Fix? I have 'fallen' arches. I am developmentally flat-footed, not congenitally flat-footed. I've been told by many doctors that the arch is ultimately supported by ligaments. And... ligaments are kinda like an elastic band. If you stretch it too far for too long a period of time it won't return to its original (shorter) length. My understanding is that you can't do that with any kind of exercise. It requires surgery, and there are a variety of surgeries I've heard about to deal with this issue. Not minor surgery, however. I believe what you're talking about is mitigating many of the adverse consequences of having fallen arches. I'm not sure I'd call that a 'fix', however. Once one stops doing the exercises, after some period of time the arches are just going to go back to whatever the ligaments will accommodate. Are you claiming that your exercises can restore the lost elasticity of the supporting ligaments and permanently shorten them up?
This video cleared many doubts and confusions.very well researched and concise and well presented.i have been suffering from the foot pain lately and had no clue what to do about it. Now I know. Thanks for such insightful video.
I thought you gonna show some exercises...end up just seeing you talking doesn't help anybody..
My feet are so flat! They look like pancakes, or Tortillas. 😂😂😂 My arches divorced me when I was 12.
The same issue with me
Action Plan:
- loosen calves
- strengthen foot and butt muscles
I've had high arches but fallen ones as well. I am in the 95th percentile for high arches in over 50 countries. Genetically I have huge calfs and never worked out as a kid. Also, I was told by chiropractors to wear arches and shoes in the house. Today I have weak feet, fallen arches and bent knees. I'm 22 years old and this video explained everything perfectly so that I understood how my past issues caused this to happen over time. I now have back, hip, knee issues at 22. Exercise and stay healthy please. Losing weight significantly helps too!
I'm 24 and been having severe hip and especially knee pain on one side for over a year. I really hope I can fix my weak feet and that I will soon not be in pain anymore... even had physiotherapie and special soles made for me - nothing seems to work. Good luck on your journey!
Wearing arches is like using a crutch. Dont do it unless you have to, and try to get out of that situation as fast as possible
@Caralho its a little late, I'm 23 and now I have to to keep my legs somewhat straight so my knee/hip pain is minimized
@@jamesepicmamba , I’ve had on and off foot pain since I was a kid. Very weak feet. Severe turn in of one knee. ( im thin), I’m almost 60 now, and I bought myself a pair of beginner barefoot shoes. I just got them about 2 weeks ago and im only wearing them around house and a little outside to get used to them. Im not kidding, I think im already seeing a difference!
( I’ve also been stretching my feet, and bending and stretching at the hips) I try to stretch daily now. I feel like my balance is getting better! You’re young, please don’t give up!!
Back, hip, and knees? Lol thats all boy? Maybe try getting out of the house and working all day everyday. Get some scars and good story's behind them. Gain 20 or 30 more years, and then you can bitch
But what if you were born with them?
I am most of the time bare foot but still I have flat foot.
Some are genetic. My dad has a flat feets as well as my younger sister who is 26 now.
Exactly, I spend most of my childhood outdoors and barefoot, but I have extremely flat feet

Sorry to hear that.
We are planning to do a whole educational series around knee pain and injury prevention later this year. Stay tuned for that :)
There is literally no pain until you start walking

Could've been Osgood-Schlatter disease when the bones, muscles, and tendons grow at different rates
@@Babumoshai.. it's called varying severity. Just because you didn't experience it as bad, which you should be grateful for because we didn't all have it as good as you, doesn't mean that the person is lying or those symptoms don't exist. Flat feet have caused me excruciating pain throughout my whole lower body for very long. What the person explained is something I've had to deal with as well, and many people did too and still do. Fix your attitude and ignorance before invalidating somebody's struggle.
This stuff opened my eyes, I thought it was natural...
Me too
I have a curious point
I personally have some low arches, which don't affect me usually, but when I searched for information, I noticed that many people would suggest that we wear shoes with arch support (that is, shoes with protrusions on the arch of the insole), saying It can help balance the force on the soles of the feet and relieve fatigue on the soles of the feet. At the same time, I also found that some people think that we should try to avoid shoes with arch support, because arch support will replace or reduce the force of our original muscles, causing muscle degeneration or even atrophy.
What I'm curious about is:
1. Which of the above statements is more correct or has more correct parts?
2. If don’t consider the problems of flat feet or high arches that affect your life, for people with normal arches or people with low arches like me but the problem is not serious, should try to choose shoes with arch support or Shoes without arch support?
Hope to know your opinion
I'm just getting into the space of barefoot vs non barefoot and I think barefoot is the way to go no matter your arch size. I hope you can find your answer for your questions soon.
I've been useing wide shoes or vibrams walking an building up on runs.. My left foot is spreading and now aches and is now getting to widen for normal running trainers 😂🤦♀️
My feet hurt so bad after a day of work, if i try and go to the toilet in the eve i can’t even walk that’s how bad it hurts😩

@@Kinsyy98 i currently use special soles they work very good
Reading the comments of people whose IQ too low to understand this video... The problem with the education system of the world.
Some people do not develop flat feet. They are born with loose ligaments and tendons and never ever had arches and never developed them even after exercises, support, shoe modifications or any other intervention. Four generations of my family have extreme flat feet and very pronated ankles.
Man I really wanna go to army but this fckin thing . I just want to cure this😭😭😭😭😭
I feel enormous pain when walking due to flat feet but tbh I can't devote 80% of my time to that issue and that's what these never-ending" programs" like yours are about.
I’m sorry to hear about your foot issues. However, I’m also sorry to say that there is no quick fix or ‘magic pill’ for this. One needs to put in the necessary effort into claiming back their health. While we can guide and coach people on the right path, the hard work still needs to be done by them.

Start taking it seriously and doing the exercise because you're at the right age to do it. When you're an adult, flat feet are usually permanent

At 31 years old, I’ve had flat feet as long as I can remember. Never had any issues until now. Heel pain. Low back pain. And I have a sideways curvature in my spine that I just discovered leading to tightness in just one side of my back. I hope switching to barefoot shoes and strengthening my feet will help alleviate these problems
I'm 19 and I have the same problems as you do 😶 I used to be obese so it kind of caused me to develop these issues sooner. I'm not obese anymore, but I still feel the pain (although drastically less) I hope it gets better for us now that we know the causes ❤ best of luck to you!
Im the same. For low back pain try stretching your hips, legs and core!
Flat feet is a very sucky thing your ankle is like the abdominal motherboard of your lower body it controls everything without it ,it can make you very injury prone affects balance in sports which won’t allow you to reach full potential and mess with posture in the back also affect hip flexibility and explosiveness in sports i had custom insoles installed from my ankle doctor i felt the change immediately but they were painful to adjust to this time im dealing with the pain then if i see no difference i will consider surgery but this video was basically just a book advertisement
My arch actually goes out and away from my foot haha even raising my foot off the ground it stays flat. It can be extremely painful and inconvenient but there are worse things to have!

Great video. Thank you for sharing your research and tips.
So happy to hear you enjoyed it 🙏😊
EXCERCISE will NEVER ever change anatomy NEVER
I’m flat footed, and have been affected by this my entire life. Being born and raised in Hawaii, I’ve been barefoot while inside the house as well as when I played outside. I’ve since then moved from Hawaii to California. Even in the mainland, we still predominantly are barefoot indoors; even going outside for minor tasks like check the mail, get something from the car, etc…barefoot.
I’ve come across these videos because TH-cam (Google) must have found out that I am suffering with bunions, so doing what the algorithm does, she goes, “hey, you might want to watch this…”. My bunion (predominantly on my left foot) is most likely caused by my flat footedness.
In my case, where flat footedness may be genetic issue, can this be corrected?
It can be corrected, contact a podiatrist. He or she may tell you the best fix for this issue.
Really. I have them too. I thought I was just cursed. I hate being born wrong
Can toe walking be a symptom of having flat feet?!
I had messed up legs when I was born. Then I have extremely flat feet. I can't go for hours standing up. Now my ankle hurts so I wear a brace, I wear orthotics from roadrunner everyday. I'm not sure if it's Genetics or my muscles that are not working. all I want is to not have pain on my feet away.
I got bullied bcus of having a big and flat foot😔

Why on earth was I told flat feet were just a hereditary foot type -_-
Also, I rarely ever wore or wear shoes and have had flat feet my whole life. My entire family does too. Im talking mom, dad, aunts and uncles on both sides. I’m so confused.
Bunions are also taken as a sign of ill-fitting shoes; crushing the toes together and creating these damaging and foot-altering bunions that reduce balance and stability.
However, they can also be genetic and therefore shoes merely exacerbate a predisposition.
Your flat-footedness sounds genetic as well, thus you're already at a disadvantage though perhaps that's all the more reason to pursue arch strengthening exercises and use barefoot shoes in order to overcome that which your genetics has burdened you with.
In all demographics there exists the nth% that seem to have all the traits of something that is exemplified by negative connotations. But don't feel disheartened, that just makes you a perfect example that sometimes it's our genetics we are fighting against, not just the footwear or clothing additions that modify how our bodies perform...
I got my flat feet from my dad's side of the family.
My right foot has all these problems but my left is chillin
Whenever I run my right foot is always in pain that makes me want to stop but my left foot feels like it’s not even being used
All of a sudden I feel arthritis level pains in my right foot after jamming some footy. Didn't get kicked or anything in fact it gradually got worse. I took a nap and afterwards it was worse. My toe feels swollen and if I try to move it in either direction it just invokes the pain. The pain on top of my foot feels like a swollen pulled muscle like how. At the same time it hurts even when I lightly touch it bro. Oh my Lord I pray to get this fixed. I wanna play BALL!!😅⚽️⚽️
I'm sorry I cant get over your name and profile picture 😭🤣! Muscle man freaks me out
Flat foot is genetic
Lift shoes are comfortable than flat one.
This is not helpful.
I actually know that I have weak glutes so I decided to check if my knees were looking inward like you’ve shown. And lo and behold they actually are. So I decided to rotate them back to where they supposed to be and my arch actually raises. Damn, internet is really a blessing.
Thanks, i just tried rotating the kness to face forward like you mentioned, youre right it automatically lifts the arches and you can feel your gluts tighten.
I really hate my body
What would the recommended steps be if walking bare feet gets really uncomfortable? Gotta stand for hours a day, and I couldn't fathom doing that without a cushioned, supported shoe arch
Though I don't have to stand for hours, I understand the punishment of a hard surface on the feet (or perhaps not the strongest of feet). What I find best is alternating between footware options during the day and perhaps removing shoes to stretch and relax feet while put up and at rest. All that said, I never thought I could walk longer distances without my high-end gel runners, yet now find I go quite well in a pair of sport sandals, like Merrell.... all are arched mind you, though the sandal, less so.

Anyone bought the program, applied it and fix flat feet?
My son has always had flat feet and ankles that turn inward. He is 2.5 years old. Should I try to fix this in any way? It’s very pronounced
We are all born with flat feet. The foot arches develop by the age of around 6. However, if the arches fail to develop properly by that age, it may be a sign that there were certain lifestyle factors in place at the time which were not conducive for proper foot development. For example, there are studies which show that when children spend the majority of their time wearing shoes before the age of 6, they have a significantly greater chance of having flat feet in life comparatively to those who were predominantly barefoot.
Despite all this, the foot arches can still be stimulated and developed later in life using the steps presented in this video.
I’m not sure that I can talk because I’m 14, however this is very painful when exercising. I suggest trying to correct it early on, or at least that’s what I over hear my parents saying.
go to a pediatrician for their insight
I am Orthotist from the Philippines ,all of us are born flat feet up to 3yr old and from 3yrs old the foot arch are starting to develop There are cases that don't developed, , Normally I put customized Arch support or insoles .
Arch support has to be put inside the shoe..
flat feet can be genetic tho. If you are born with flat feet it wont cause you problems. I have flat feet and I dont feel any type of discomfort
Bro what are u talking about . I was born with it and I have pain.
i am born with it but i do not have any type of discomfort but my body posture is not proper and i want to cure it
You can't fix a flat foot, if you do not fix the wrong posture in hip, shoulder blade and shoulder.
Walking without heels and with swinging arms fixes this. For the last 4 years, I've done this every day for 2 hours. You must walk far. Like from Berlin to Beijing.
It was worth it. I'm nearly straight now. Back pain is gone. The arch is restored. My left foot was 1 centimeter longer, than the right one. Now they are same length.
Shoes with heels and shoulder bag make scoliosis. That's the problem. The inventors of this items brought more pain to mankind, than anybody else.
ive had flat feet my entire life and went to many many doctors with none of them knowing, I told my parents and due to it switching the pain between all 3 pelvis feet and knees they thought that I was lying. I'm not sure if I should exercise or just stay in bed and let it heal on its own. Now I can actually tell between what is going on and how to stop it. Thanks For The Help.
Hey can you do update on how your feet changed?
No one can fix flat feet, don't be fooled. You're born with that
I'd like to say thank you for these videos. I suffer from plantar fasciitis and bone spurs from working on my feet. I tried two podiatrists over the years thus have had orthodontics, made it all worse. The information you are sharing is priceless. American Drs don't take time to educate their patients, it's in and out the door. I've ordered toe separators and am going to buy barefoot shoes as soon as I have money to. I've worked barefoot two days, against rules but I told my boss it's that or I'm calling off as I can't walk. So next check shoes! For now stretches and toe spacers daily. Thank you from the bottom of my heart to my mending feet!
Oğlum 10 yaşında ve içe basıyor yaptığınız egzersizlerle düzelir mi
I have moderate bunions, moderate flat feet, and moderate plantar fasciitis. I've been wearing wide "yoga foam" skechers now almost exclusively for almost a decade, and very supportive shoes, "strutz" support for the PF, and toe spacers for the bunions. My health has declined significantly because I cannot run or jump. It seems 4/5th of the recommended types of cardio make my feet hurt. But I cannot afford bunion surgery. This channel gives me hope, although I'm a bit reluctant. What should I start with first? Any way to get a consultation with you guys? Thanks
Christopher, I just myself got barefoot type shoes to start with. Not wearing to gym, but trying to wear when I’m just moving around. I’ve only had them 2 weeks and I feel a difference. I’m also stretching my toes and ankles and bending to stretch my hamstrings. I feel like it’s helping! And I plan on continuing! Please buy a cheap pair to start with! I’m so happy I saw channels like these so my stiff flat feet can start to heal!
I hope you have great success!

All babies have flat feet. Arches form during early childhood. If arches don't develop - or they collapse later in life (fallen arches) - flat feet can cause pain and affect walking.
I'm 25 and waiting on Xrays for my feet and for custom Orthotics. My podiatrist gave my the opposite advice and suggested NEVER walking barefoot. Do you think that's a general rule or one that can be specific to the severity of flatfeet?
Same! I got a flare of plantar fasciitis and fixed it within 3 days but no longer walking barefoot on hardwood floor and massaging my feet and rolling it with a cold water bottle. I sometimes have feet pain and put on my slides and they already feel better.
I wonder if wearing the orthotics for support and comfort, combined with going barefoot for strengthening could be a solution for you. (podiatrists, imo, offer advice to support their industry, ie.. custom orthotics) dunno, but you can experiment...
Great video.
You mentioned 40% of the US population is suffering from flat feet or a collapsed arch.
Now, about 80% of the Amrican population obese and fat. Half of the problems with the arch won't be fixed until they fix their body weight and shape. Spot fixing is hard as long as the foundation is non optimal
You’ve no idea how much your advise has helped me since youtube recommended this channel. For years I have endured a bunion on my right foot with my small toes joining in so to speak, it was embarrassing to look at and meant I couldn’t wear any type of open shoe as the large toe tab would be uncomfortable. After one episode I looked down how I walked and ran only to seeing my right foot was angling inwards from a weak ankle causing my bunion, it was literally a eureka moment and I knew it could be solved by myself. Well just want to say thanks I have renewed hope, Merry Christmas.

I wonder if fallen arches and bunions are the whole reason that I began to have lower back pain while doing normal walking. My brother was born with flat feet. I have looked at pictures my teenaged years while barefoot and I walked pronated. But when I wore high heels you couldn't see that. Interesting. But the back pain I get while walking is very similar to labor pains. About two inches over my tailbone.

According to my holistic chiropractor, if you already have a sunken arch, barefoot is a bad idea. He recommends a triple arch shoe insert made for your own feet.
Dude my both feet were pronated and my left foot is slightly overpronated and this combination will ruined my entire lower body shape like knee valgus uneven hips and I tried lots of exercises for strengthen arch and glutes from past 6 months they don't give any permanent result . And I consult lots of doctors but no one improve my legs and finally I conclude that if your ankles were weak whatever exercises you do for your fallen arch they're never gonna be correct and finally I started strengthen my ankles from past 1weak believe me I observed tremendous changes in my leg 😊
