The Feet could be classed as a miracle of natural engineering, The foot is made up of 26 bones, 33 joints, 107 ligaments and 19 muscles. In fact the 52 bones in your feet equal a of all the bones in your body. Your feet are complex pieces of machinery and need regular maintenance. Each of these bones work together to form lever which will lock and unlock as the individual moves forward.

Biomechanics is the study of human movement, as the feet and legs are the part of the body that move us from place to place, understanding how this is done is very important. Small changes in alignment can have a large impact on the whole system. At this point the foot starts to pronate (the rolling and flattening of the arch) this is a normal part of the gait cycle and allows the foot to adapt to uneven surfaces and absorb shock.
