Chiropractors and orthopedic surgeons think that high heels are a problem because they are the cause of many womens back pains. If you are a slave to fashion, then you can find yourself enslaved to have chronic back pain from your high heels.
Women will walk an average of 10,000 steps a day. When in a pair of high heels she is putting one heck of a strain on her back and is also putting her health at risk.
High heels do not allow weight to be distributed equally throughout the entire foot. The high heels cause the body’s weight to actually be centered forward on or in the toes. This goes against gravity and nature. It causes stress on the vertebrae of the spine and it causes stress on the muscles.
When women remove their high heels, you will hear a sign of relief. The relief of her whole body will feel like she is back on solid earth. The back pain will be relieved until she puts her high heels on again. The pain will come in the form of muscle spasms, stiffness and soreness.
The Story of High Hell Heeled High heels were originally for both men and women to seem taller and show some form of status in high society. Men wore them to keep their feet in the stirrups and women would wear them to help increase beauty. This trend continued for many centuries.
High heels are no longer fashionable for men but they still are for women and has been since the 1500’s. Today, high heels are not only associated with youth and high fashion, but with sex as well. Playboy models, runway models and celebrities all still portray this trend. The high heel allure is among the masses.
High heels have been causing women back pain ever since the 1500″s. This is what the high heels cause:
calluses - bunions - curvature of the spine - pain in buttocks and back of calves - chronic back pain - hip pain - knee osteoarthritis - slipped disks - hammertoe
What research has shown the the fat heel popular in the 1980’s, is no less harmful than the skinny-toed and skinny heeled stiletto so popular today. What happens is that the high heeled shoes cause increased pressure that is placed on the knees.
What is recommended in heel size from podiatrists and orthopedists is one half to three quarters of an inch. This height is better at reducing back pain than the flat heeled shoes. What the small amount of lift does is it supports the foot, knees and the back. The physicians say that high heels should come with a warning that reads “Hazardous to your health!” If people listened to that back pain would be reduced.
