Five Toe Socks
"Can you bend first joints of toes downwards?" When I went back to my parent's house yesterday, I was asked by my father. He said he can do now but didn't before he saw a judo therapist who has a skill of what we would call bone-setting.
It seems that we can get good posture after bone-setting around feet is corrected. Actually he had a very bad posture and stooped when he was walking about 10 years ago, but now he can walk with keeping his back straight.
If we don't walk without using all of bottom of our feet when kicking the ground, first joint of toes won't be used. That is why posture gets worse. In the worst case, we would suffer from bunion or bowlegs which can cause moreover back pain and stiffing in the shoulder. It means our body will be get worse from lower part to upper part of the body.
One of the treatment for this feet's problems is wearing five toe socks. The blood flow of the lower half of the body will be improved by wearing this kind of socks. But my father suggested that don't buy 200-300-yen socks at bargain prices but 2,000-3,000-yen socks which hold each toe firmly tightened.
