Shout out to Bild by Coach O for having me out last week to teach their mobility class. I think everyone, including myself, found a few spots they’d been neglecting!
BILD by Coach O

🦶Bunions (aka Hallux Valgus) are a boney bump at the base of the big toe, can be stubbornly uncomfortable, and become painful enough people opt for surgery. If caught early enough the progression can be haulted or even reversed in the early stages. 🦶 Causes - while genetics can place you at greater risk the main culprit is shoes with too small of a toe box. Especially pointy toed shoes and shoes with a higher heel! The narrow forefoot causes compression of the bones in the feet, especially the first and second ray, adducting the big toe towards the others. Shoes with a smaller forefoot also cause eventual weakening of the intrinsic muscles in the foot making it hard to volitionally splay the toes without shoes on. 🦶 Treatment is multi-factorial. 🙌🏼 Manual therapy can aid in loosening the tighter intrinsic muscles between the feet with a pin and stretch technique and/or dry needling of the foot. 💪🏼 Strengthening the abductor hallucis can help pull the great toe back into a straighter alignment and reduce crowding against the second toe. Strengthening of the foot intrinsics and arch can also lead to a greater toe splay and improves pressure distribution throughout the foot during gait. 💅🏼 Toe spacers (my favorite are Yoga Toes) are for more than just pedicures. They can be a great aid in stretching the toes apart and make for greater adherence to a stretching program due to their ease of use. 👟 Opting for shoes with a wider toe box or functional minimalist shoes can allow for greater toe splay during gait and improve strength of the intrinsic foot muscles. One easy way to tell if your shoes are wide enough is the insole test. Take your insole insert out of your shoe and step on it as shown in the last slide. If part of your foot is hanging off the side it’s too narrow for natural toe splay. 🦶 Walking barefoot has been shown to decrease peak pressure at the heel and metatarsal regions when done habitually. It also allows for more natural splaying of the toes and a return to more anatomical function of the foot. If you want to improve your foot health reach out.

These are the most common cues I use and the sequence of them to help reduce a hips forward / kyphotic posture.
