Good Feet Offers Free Foot Analysis to Community During National Foot Health Awareness Month

Online, April 23, 2013 (Newswire.com) - Good Feet, a local retailer of custom-fitted arch support, announced today their free foot health analysis to local community members in Boston, MA.

An estimated 87 percent of the general population suffer from foot-related problems, most of which can be linked to improper support for lowered arches in their feet, wearing improper footwear, walking or standing on hard surfaces for long periods of time, being overweight, or suffering from sports injuries. Lowered arches twist and thus tighten the feet, so walking or any movement often becomes very painful. While many people who are looking for relief turn to retailers like drug and grocery stores, Good Feet takes the process to another level.

Since opening the first of its five stores in 2003, Good Feet has focused on pain-relieving orthotics and shock absorbing footwear. It helps people enhance their overall health, activities and interests. Good Feet sales consultants take each customer through a personal bio-mechanical balancing and measurement process to identify the customer's primary activities and shoe style preferences. Next, the customer is personally fit with arch supports and cushions that can provide them with pain free comfort, balance and support.

"Most of our sales consultants have worked in our stores for seven to ten years; therefore, their customer relation skills and product knowledge are exceptional," said Tevis Runyan, owner of the Good Feet Stores in Massachusetts. "Employee training and the personalized product selection is one important key of the company's success."

Good Feet products are designed to support all four of the foot's arches at its full, proper heights, which makes the personal fitting process so important. Through better foot support, a person's body weight is more evenly distributed which maximizes stability and balance, and can reduce pressure that can cause discomfort, not just in the feet, but upwards through the legs, hips and lower back.

"If you are one of the many people who are seeking help for plantar fasciitis or lingering lower back pain, our Total Body Wellness System is highly recommended," added Runyan. "Our orthotics has helped hundreds of thousands of people. It is such a satisfying emotion seeing people walking out of the stores with a smile on their face after coming in with sadness and pain."
