Beat the Deep Freeze With NEW! BIOTIME ORTHOPEDIC SLIPPERS with removable footbeds. GREG LAWRENCE B.Sc., D.Ch. Foot Specialist/Chiropodist 1A Princess Anne Dr., Georgetown 905-702-1611 (beside Hospital) (4 colours) Orthotic Friendly $5500 Tax IncludedFebruary 18 to 23, 2008 Pamper your feet! From February 18 to 23, Foot Care Week aims to raise public awareness on the importance of preventive foot care. One tiny week to pamper the lit- tle feet that carry us everywhere we go, all year long! The foot orthotist performs a biome- chanical evaluation to measure the severity of functional limitations by examining the pressure points in the feet. By doing so, this professional can prevent complications that could have harmful consequences on the general health of a patient. Indeed, our little feet can actually cause us serious damage, from the ankles all the way up the back. Bad foot posture can cause pain to the feet, ankles, knees, hips, and back. A foot consists of 26 bones that must support 70 kg of pressure per square centimetre on only three pressure points. It is easy to understand how a slight deviation in posture, no matter how minor, can result in a lot of pain and the premature wearing of the joints. Worn joints dis- turb the muscle groups, which, in turn, affect the back. During this Foot Care Week, take care of your feet! Compared to many other physical ailments, it is easy to prevent the problems caused by poor feet posture. Consulting an orthotist will only reassure you if, in fact, your feet are healthy. It could also help prevent bio- mechanical problems that you dont even suspect yet. 50 Main St. South, Georgetown 9058736388 www.downtowngeorgetown.com Celebrating 9 Years Since 1999 Bare Image Electrolysis & Laser Inc.
