People grow older, it’s a fact. Whether we like it or not, all of us must accept that each day’s activities, the wear and tear of our daily lives, has a cumulative affect on our bodies. When we’re younger and healthier, those affects go largely unnoticed. However, as we enter our late twenties, early thirties, we begin to realize that many of the physical activities that were once enjoyed in our youth, ( sports in particular) are no longer fun.

The repeated stresses of running, jumping and even just walking can result in foot, knee and back problems that continue to cause pain or discomfort even after physical activity has been ceased. But what about when we have to go back to work , or to the store? It seems only natural that aging reduces our athletic  abilities, common sense right? But what if the cause of your individual aches and pains was caused by something less nefarious than aging? What if the major contributor was actually something as simple and easy to overlook as your shoes?
