I have some exciting news!

Posted by:

Fancy an overnight in the leaning tower of Pisa?

Posted by:

Italy is definitely on my list, but I’m not sure I would want to stay the night in a building who’s footings clearly aren’t sound! We can easily apply the same concept to our bodies, though it’s a little easier and cheaper to fix and you won’t need an engineer. When we talk about alignment, we always start at the feet…

 

Why bring the weight into the heels?
