A Little Goes A Long Way

Let’s say you decide to walk with your toes pointed more forward than usual–maybe just a tiny 1” adjustment, right? But no, with that move, the foot’s 26 bones, 33 joints and over 100 muscles, tendons and ligaments all have to adjust. And, of course, the turn of the ankle gives the two bones of the lower leg a different relationship, so on up the leg it goes. Furthermore, muscles, used differently, have to grow and adapt, and all of a sudden, your little shift turns into a major workout, complete with soreness in some tiny muscles you didn’t even know you had. Have fun with your petite and profound changes!
