Foot Facts
Did you know that a child just learning to walk takes around 176 steps per minute?
Your feet have a quarter of all the bones in your body. Each foot has 26 bones and over 100 muscles, tendons and ligaments
Ill-fitting shoes are known to contribute to around 70% of foot problems.
When running, your feet take the pressure of about 3 - 4 times the weight of your body.
It’s estimated that a person walks over 100,000 miles in their life time that’s nearly 4 times around the world.
With every mile you walk, you shift approximately 100 tonnes just to move your body forward.
The wear and tear of life combined with commonly inherited defects in foot structure means that most of us are damaging our feet unnecessarily.
An annual foot health check can help reduce the likelihood of many foot problems later on in life.
