Whether you know it or not, shoes have made the muscles in your feet weak and under active. There are tons of nerves and muscles that run throughout the bottom of the foot. The sole of a shoe prevents these muscles and nerves from providing feedback to the brain. Overtime, this can create problems through ankles, knees, hips, and back. In this article, Chris talks about how something as simple as a golf ball can be used to improve the way your feet move and feel.
