Best practices for health professionals is similar to the building code for trades Best practices donโ€™t tell pros how to treat or what tools to use just like the building code doesnโ€™t tell trades what kind of house to design/build or what tools to use They both simply ensure that whatever gets done meets a minimum requirement of critical elements They are guidelines that ensure a minimum level of quality and hold pros and trades accountable to doing the right things [trogon_857921]

5 essential practices for health professionals who work with the lower extremity: 1) Mindset education Thinking long term, focusing on removing unnatural inputs first then adding natural inputs, being consistent and patient, understanding that pain is a teacher not an enemy, 1% better everyday is the objective 2) Movement education Less time sitting in chairs, more time walking and on the ground, the body requires varied movement everyday 3) Footwear education Eliminate shoes that damage your feet and mess up your posture, spend time barefoot and wear natural footwear when your feet need protection (foot shaped, flat, flexible, thin sole, fixed to your foot) 4) Pain education Pain is an adaptive signal that must be listened to, pain isnโ€™t the enemy and shouldnโ€™t be muted, pain is the most powerful feedback that guides correct action 5) Movement screening Single leg balance for 60 seconds, sit to stand no hands, resting squat position If you donโ€™t apply these in your practice, you are not upholding a reasonable standard of care and you are not being as effective as you could be [macaw_853566]
