As the saying goes, "When your feet hurt, you hurt all over."

A couple of years ago, I had a Morton's Neuroma that was just getting started. Cortisone worked. But I am not a runner.

I like to walk though, but was having problems with finding a shoe that would ward off flaring the neuroma again and other foot-aggravations. I had orthotics from the podiatrist -- made just for me from some computer generated image. Cost a bunch. Did not like them.

But then. . .we bought a house in TV. . .and there I found Anthony at a little shoe store close to Bargains & Treasures. If you head west on 466, you will see the store in a little strip mall. I think it is called "All About Feet."

So anyway, Anthony found a walking shoe that works for me. Finally. It even adjusts to my skinny heel. He put a little orthotic in the front. I think it lifts the front of my foot somehow to keep pressure off. I don't know how it works. But it works.

They even have some dressy sensible shoes. They carry brands designed to help your feet feel better. And they have off-the-shelf orthotics to help you if needed.

I bought the best pair of walking shoes I have ever had. Some might consider the shoes to be a bit expensive. But like the saying goes, "When your feet hurt, you hurt all over." So to me, it was worth spending a little extra and to finally be properly fitted.

If you want to see if they have something that will help you, be sure to ask for Anthony. I think he has been in the biz for a long time and sure seems to know "All About Feet."

I hope this helps.
