[QUOTE="Nandina, post: 758169, member: 23742"] I am one who finds Birkenstocks very uncomfortable on my knees and I find the footbed way too hard. But I know lots of people who swear by them. I spent $160 on a pair of Birkenstock sandals only to find that I can’t wear them and they’re sitting in my closet waiting to be sold or given away. I haven’t heard of some of the other shoes on the list but I’ll check them out as I am always on a quest to find comfortable shoes! Unfortunately, it’s an expensive quest. And I have long ago given up on finding stylish shoes of the comfortable variety—they don’t exist! As for chiropractors—if you find a good one they can make a difference in your life. I was in a serious car accident about 30 years ago; I was t-boned by a distracted teenage driver. My pelvis was fractured and for weeks I walked kind of like an ape (really, lol), with the left side of my body caved in. I owe my relatively straight posture today to a chiropractor who used sort of a gentle acupressure technique on my hip and back. (I forget what it’s called) At the time, I had to keep this information from my medical doctor or he probably wouldn’t have continued to see me. In those days chiropractors got no respect at all from the medical profession. It’s not entirely better but today, you will sometimes see them working in tandem with doctors at the same practice. The MD did nothing to help me straighten up; just watched me walk to check gait and moved my leg up and down as I lay on the table. If you’re having back, hip, neck, or foot pain and traditional MDs have been unable to help, sometimes a chiropractor can. They get to the root cause of the problem instead of just treating the symptoms. [/QUOTE]
