Re: Can Chiropractic Help Bunions?

Probably. The pelvis and lower back can affect the feet. However, its usually an old injury from childhood. There are many dfferent things you can do.

Professionally I don't do feet. BUT, I do a lot of feet anyway. I use the activator to get the feet as machanically correct as I can and most of the time that does the trick. They're called Micro-subluxations. Feet, ankles, knees, shoulders, elbows and wrists, all respond quite favorably to the activator. It's something that I've picked up over the years.

The feet are also very sensitive to the meridian blockages elsewhere on the body. But usually it's an old injury that didn't get corrected at the time of injury.

If the feet have been crushed to some degree you'll probably need surgery. If not keep the calouses trimmed and massage the feet a couple times a week. A good refexologists can improve the feet quite a bit also. Go about every two weeks.

I've got old injuries to my right knee and rigth ankle that have affected my feet. About once a month I have to soak the foot and get the callouses off and I'm fine. Yes, I've adjusted them but they still happen anyway. Back when I injured them no one knew about feet.

The feet develop those things to balance the rest of the body, so there is some adaptative use for them. Of course womens shoes don't do much good for the feet. Mens shoes either for that matter. There's a reason Barefoot calls himslf Barefoot. I very rarely wear shoes, I go with mocossins.

At this stage I'd suggest a reflexologist a couple times a month. Its great for the rest of the body too.
