Body Problems Caused by Foot Problems

By: KURU Footwear

Key Takeaways

  • Foot problems can lead to whole-body problems, including issues with the ankles, knees, and back.
  • KURU shoes use patented technology to provide arch and heel support, custom fit, and cushioning for better foot health and proper walking gait.

Foot Problems: More Than Just a Pain in the Feet

Ankles: Your ankles may suffer if you suffer from foot problems such as fallen arches or plantar fasciitis. Fallen arches cause your ankles to roll inward, giving you what is called “overpronation.”

Knees: The changing shape of your ankles or your walking gait due to pain can cause the natural track of your knees to become skewed. This causes pain and injury that can become permanent.

Back: Everything connects to the back. If your feet, ankles, and knees are causing awkward movements, your spine can become injured, and muscles will begin to ache and cause problems with movement.

KURU for Healing

Treating whole-body problems caused by your feet can be pretty straightforward. If you can correct your foot problems, you can automatically put the rest of your body back in line.

Our patented KURUSOLE technology allows your feet to get the arch and heel support you need to beat plantar fasciitis and fallen arches. A deep heel cup helps keep the shape of your arches while flexing to protect your fat pad and give you cushion the way nature intended.

Over time, space-age foams use your body heat to form to the shape of your unique foot for a custom fit unlike anything else. This gives you better foot health for a more proper walking gait and better whole-body health from the ground up.
