Review 'The Foot Strength Plan' is a definite must-read for people who want to improve their mobility or strengthen their feet. It has certainly helped me in my quest to relieve the pain, fatigue and inflammation in my foot from an old injury. Not only does the book explain how the muscles of the foot work, but it also identifies how to single out individual muscles to work on. I especially like the simple, step-by-step, progressive nature of the exercises, something that has allowed me to see small gains in a relatively short time. This has encouraged me to persevere toward the more challenging exercises. As a result, the book has become an invaluable resource [that I can go back to time and time again]. Grace Bell Retired Teacher "We can no longer look to orthotics as a panacea for lower limb pain and gait issues. Dombroski explains in easy to understand terms how we can improve our strength and mobility which will reduce injuries and keep people moving!" Maclean Graydon, MSc Canadian Certified Pedorthist "As a collegiate level athlete performing a high impact sport - pole vault - general physical health can be challenging to maintain. Though I have a high arch, I was fortune to retain good foot health until a significant injury to my big toe joint in my third year of competing.

I was beyond fortunate that the referral went to Dr. Dombroski who evaluated my specific problem and suggested custom made foot orthotics to correct some mechanical/structural changes that resulted from my injury. The process was professional, specific and most importantly, successful - I was able to continue my sport through the rest of my University career. At a recent visit to Dr. Dombroski's clinics, I inquired about options to supplement the orthotics with exercises and I was given an advanced copy of this book. After starting just a few of the exercises mentioned, the changes to not only my foot health but also my hip and back have been nothing short of profound. In my specific case, the exercises have allowed me to forgo the need for orthotics entirely, improved my performance in the gym for exercises like deadlifts and in general, sincerely changed my life. This book fills a rehabilitation gap that has been present for far too long and proves, at least to me, that foot health can dictate general health in remarkable ways. I sincerely feel that this book can benefit anyone and everyone, regardless of whether you are struggling w
