Thank you so much for these treatments. They will def help to relieve my pain. I play a lot of sports and I often get sore. I've been looking for better shoes to lessen my pain and assist in cushioning more. I also walk with my feet outward, and I think it's called suppination.

Can you recommend any types of shoes for sports that could help? Also, any brands/models would be helpful. Thanks!
