The best bunion video yet. Useful practical info. Thank you 😊 💓

I have the correct toes and 3 pair of LEMS footwear. Good progress over several months. The most amazing change is the aches and pains from my lower back, knees and feet have basically gone away. Even my lower foot neuropathy has lessened due, I believe to the better circulation the toe separation enables. I’m 75 years old and only wish I had discovered these techniques sooner.

Great video. There's one thing I have learnt, that sock choice too is important. I own 15 pairs of vivos, which are wide at the toe-box, but if your socks are tight, the shoe's benefits are reduced. So I now stretch all my socks at the front whilst still wet after washing them.

Wow!! I wish I saw this video before I wasted time and money at a podiatrist that I went to for a 2nd time. He said that I have a slight bunion and gave me a cortisone shot and a prescription for a anti inflammortory pills and said to get a shoe insole. I got the insole but, didn't take the pills as I hate taking conventional medicine unless it is the last resort. I already have toe separators but, you have taught me more than those 2 doc visits and this is free information!!! I wish I could just pay you!!

_Contrary to popular belief, bunions are aggravated, not caused, by shoes. The late anthropologist Margaret Meade observed many members of a South Sea island tribe had bunions, yet they had never worn shoes! They usually are the result of inherited faulty foot mechanics that put abnormal stress on the front of the foot._

I’ve been wearing correct toes since watching a Squat U video on the topic around 8 months ago. I can say with full confidence that correct toes are easily the best investment I’ve made in my personal care. The benefits were immediate and revelatory. I’ve had bunions as long as I can remember and the knowledge and feeling of a functioning big toe is still profound. My balance and stability were immediately improved after slipping the “toes” on. I also immediately invested in minimalist foot wear in order to be able to wear the “toes” at all waking moments. I never see myself willingly wearing conventional footwear again. I hope there will be barefoot safety shoes available in the near future! Do your feet, ankles, knees, hips, and spine a favor and buy correct toes and a pair of minimalist shoes! I promise you will not regret the money spent! Also, swinging weights like kettlebells, heavy clubs, or a mace while barefoot with the “toes” is a great way to strengthen the feet.

I think it’s also important to talk about the very prevalent and unhelpful aesthetic of having narrow feet with as little as possible spaces between the toes. This look is what is considered attractive but for many people their natural foot is wider at the front with gaps between the toes.

Great video. And I should say that toe spacers are really helpful in reducing bunion pain as well. I also suggest socks that make some space between the toes.

For anyone switching to barefoot shoes (which everyone should do) I recommend Dr. Emily Splichal's book 'Barefoot Strong,' a very short, concise guide to the best ways to strengthen your feet and make them more supple for barefoot walking and running. In particular, Splichal understands the vital role of dorsiflection and elongating the Achilles tendon, which are not much discussed elsewhere. I've been in minimalist shoes for several years now and they were an improvement on standard footwear right away, but I wish I'd had Splichal's book sooner to help me achieve comfortable, confident natural walking sooner.

Contrary to what is commonly thought (and espoused by medical practitioners) is that arthritis is reversible (just like bunions). Stretching, yoga, weight training (easing into it), and physical work and activity can overcome it. Also certain supplements like Instaflex can boost collagen in joint connective tissue. I'm 70 and have had great success. (No lower disk due to setting chokers logging as a child, broke vertebra in high school, gun shot through the lungs 1971, several mesh hernia repairs, etc. -- all while I was young and hip replacement a decade back). At this time I can do about all as I could when 20 (but a little slower): leg press 1000lbs, run, etc. If you start having trouble in a certain area, e.g. thumb or finger, work on it (isolation stretches and strength training).

Before bunion surgery I had a lengthy discussion with my Foot Doctor AND my Foot Surgeon before having bunion surgery. I had elective bunion surgery thinking it would make my feet not as wide. After bunion surgery I had a lot of problems. The THIRD foot specialist told me that bunion surgery changes the Whole Mechanics of your feet. He showed me posters of the skeletal foot while explaining the complex skeletal bone structure of the foot and how the feet bears the body weight and impact of walking and running. He acted very surprised when I told him he was the first doctor to explain how bunion surgery changes the mechanics of the foot skeletal structure AND how a person needs to learn how to walk CORRECTLY again after bunion surgery. Before bunion surgery my feet were 13 EEE, five years after bunion surgery my feet are 13 EEEEEEEE [8E]. I had no pain before bunion surgery. Having elective bunion surgery is in the top 5 worst decisions I've made in my lifetime. It ruined my feet for the rest of my life.

Bro you have saved my life Thank you so much for this video.

Thank you. I had given up on all of this. This brings back a lot of hope to my toes that are really bad. I ripped my calf muscle while walking from having twisted toes from wearing small shoes. Would wearing Merrell wide shoes that are twice the size help? Thanks again.

I have had bunions since 5th grade, when I first noticed they were developing. My mom also had very severe bunions so she was concerned about my feet developing them. She took me to foot doctors but their only solution was surgery which was way too expensive so she started buying my shoes a bit larger so my foot would not be cramped...well over the years, I am not in my 70's this never worked because as I got older I discovered high heels!! I loved my high heels and the way they looked. Even though they caused my feet unbearable pain, I still wore them. Needless to say, my bunios became worse. Finally, in 2018 I decided to have them fixed. I found a foot doctor, who said, "Yes, I can fixe those". He started to explain the surgical procedure which I found really sickening so requested he not describe the surgery, just tell me the outcome...I recall him talking about 'metal rods'...ug. This was my left foot the 'first' surgery was performed on. It was awful, but I was looking forward to being able to wear all my beautiful heels and boots with heels 3 and 4". Well, during the followup after the surgery, I smiled to the doctor and said, "I can't wait to be able to wear my heels". To which he replied, " Heels? You won't be able to wear anything higher that about 1"." I was so devistated I began to cry. Well, the part I did not want him to discuss with me, the actual surgical procedure was that a metal rod would be inserted into my foot making it impossibe for the toe joint to move. I wondered why he convenientlally avoided telling me the outcome of the surgery...I would never have consented to going forward with the surgery if I had known I would end up 'disabled' which is , as far as I am concerned has taken place. To this day, I would like to see the doctor in my head lights!!!! So my right foot still has a bunion. I gave all my beautiful heels and boots with heels away. I have since viewed many videos of bunions being corrected without surgery, or if surgery took place, other choices of surgerical procedures rather than the drastic one I suffered at the hands of the monster disguised as a surgeon. I might also add that my foot is still recovering from the surgery which took place in 2019..Is there any way the surgery I suffered could be corrected and the metal rod removed?

I’m sorry that happened to you. But to be fair, it’s not your doctor’s fault if you consented to not hearing the full explanation of the surgery. 😢 You always need to know the details and ask tons of questions.

I have had bunion surgery on both feet and know that the pain pre-surgery was far worse than post-surgery. If you are not prepared to compromise on what shoes you want/can wear, I would not contemplate surgery which, in itself, I did not find painful at all.

go to different doctors and ask. by God's grace, you might find one kind, decent one who can take the rods out for you. don't give up, good luck.

Excellent topics Aaron we found this session so useful for us and we all on it to get this fixed up after long hard working day ∞🥊🐉Thank you

Thank you so much for the video!🤗

I'm going to try this method thank you Dr

Hey Aaron, love all the content! Keep up the great work! Is there a point at which the bunion is too big….or a large amount of growth that would make it more beneficial to get surgery? I had a soccer injury about 10 years ago and my bunion is fairly large in size.

Try Correct Toes and open toe box shoes. If that doesn’t help, I would see podiatry.

I had bunion surgery 25 years ago and was never told how to make it better with the shoes or exercises and now I have pains from the pin in my foot and the bunion is back. I would say try to stay away from the surgery.

A lot of bunions are hereditary. They normally come from your fathers side. Do you know if your father has them ?

For me it came from both sides of the family and I had them my whole life, to it definitely IS hereditery. It got worse in time for sure, but I had them since I wasn't even wearing any shoes. So I must laugh every time someone says with such confidence it's just from shoes. My Husband is wearing the same incorrect shoes as everyone and his feet are freekishly wide and not adapted to any footware. Sorry, I won't ever believe in "not hereditary".

@@elizakowalska9811 exactly, I’ve had them since a little girl. And now they’re even worse, I hate it. My dad had them and all of my 1st cousins(uncles children only) on my dad’s side have them. I forgot what show I was watching yearsssss ago but, the Dr definitely said they are inherited from your father. So nothing besides surgery will fix them. However, there are ways to slow the progression.

this is a great and most helpful video. thank you

Great information! Thank you!! I am actually scheduled for a bunion surgery next month. After watching your video, I am rethinking my decision. Why do the podiatrists never give similar information and suggest exercises, I wonder. I want to know where can I get the stretchy band you were using in this video.

I'm waiting for minimalist shoes to go more mainstream and to have more minimalist brands to pop up (or Big brands like Nike to start selling them) because since pursuing healthier stronger feet, getting a barefoot brand, and wait toe spacers, my bunion has become way less pronounced!! So many shoes are sooooo narrow!!

I just had the full surgery.5 bones modified and it was absolutely worth it!these devices were very painful for me.Easy to talk with a perfect foot….Next week I will have my other foot done!😊

Thank you so much! ❤ I got in love with your channel. Blessings

Excellent video. Told me more info than my podiatrist. What about Taylor’s bunions?

I wear toe socks. They helped enormously because they slightly separate my toes. I was to,d by a foot doctor that I needed an operation. I healed it naturally with toes socks, TCM and changing my shoes.
