Crofton Family Practice

No wonder it's so important for proper foot mechanics! Postural balance is vital for safely carrying out many daily activities, such as locomotion. The big toe helps the feet balance when an individual puts weight on their feet. Ultimately, the big toe is what helps keep an individual from falling anytime that they stand or engage in motion activities. Without the big toe, the foot would essentially have to relearn how to balance.🦶🏽

When we wear stiff-soled shoes, it takes away our ability to flex our toes. With how much responsibility our big toe has in the role of our balance, the last thing we want is to freeze it with our footwear. Wide toe boxes and flexible soles will be the best proponents of our proprioception. 👣
