Daniel Arbilla and the team at The Knowledge Exchange were gracious enough to have me on their podcast and talk about all things MSK Podiatry.
We talked a lot about foot posture, foot orthoses and the need for a new narrative around how and why they work. We also discussed my approach to issuing foot orthoses in practice and start a shared decision making process with some examples.
You can find the podcast using this link or where you usually get your podcasts.
