About this episode
Calling all runners, walkers, and hikers: This episode is a must-listen for anyone who spends time on their feet! Recorded in front of a live audience in the guest’s just-opened PT studio, hosts Sarah Bowen Shea and Britany Williams talk with Amy Benton, PT, DPT, a Portland-based physical therapist about feet and much more. In answering questions from attendees, Amy discusses:
-several ways to massage + manipulate your feet;
-why you should “close the gap of asymmetry” to avoid injury;
-how to choose a running shoe;
-a new way to approach IT band issues; and,
-the surprising connection of your big toe to another body part!
