We hear a lot about how physical activity can benefit our cardiovascular system, help us lose weight and get fit. But how does movement help our bones, muscles and joints—also known as the musculoskeletal system?
Why does moving get harder as we age? Can we prevent or slow down the aging process on our bones, muscles and joints?
In your experience, what are the top reasons why people aren’t moving more?
For years we were told to restrict physical activity when we had back pain. Why was that bad advice? How does movement help people heal?
How can people get moving? What are some of the best activities for those who may be largely inactive right now?

If in here we can get beyond the everyday self-censoring, we can engage in a real discussion of issues that may be controlling our lives, but from the shadows beyond our conscious attention.

Simplifying foot taping to provide optimal arch support and pain relief

 
 
Lori Coates, Founder of the QUICK TAPE Foot Support Strap, designed by Coates and her son Chris, that implifies foot taping to provide optimal arch support and pain relief in a single, easy-to-use strap joins eHealth Radio and the Foot Health and Health News Channels.
 
Listen to interview with host Eric Michaels and guest Lori Coates discuss the following:
What exactly is plantar fasciitis, what causes it and are certain people more prone to it?
Why is plantar fasciitis so notoriously hard to treat?
What treatment methods are available, and how well do they work?
What can someone do to prevent plantar fasciitis?
How does the QUICK TAPE strap work?
 
Lori Coates is the Founder of Support the Foot and co-inventor of the QUICK TAPE Foot Support Strap, an innovative, easy-to-apply product that provides instant support and fast relief from plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendonitis, shin splints, and other types of foot and ankle pain. After doctors had told Lori’s son Chris that surgery was the only option to treat his severe plantar fasciitis, Chris and Lori consulted with a podiatrist, who taped his foot as a temporary measure. Much to their surprise, Chris experienced dramatic relief just from the taping. While taping worked, it was a tedious, time-consuming process to tape Chris’s foot every day. Lori and Chris set out to design a simpler, more comfortable alternative that would provide the same level of relief as foot taping done at a podiatrist’s office. Support The Foot was born, with QUICK TAPE as its flagship product.Based on the clinically proven Low Dye taping method, QUICK TAPE straps dramatically simplify the foot taping process, letting patients tape their own feet effectively at home without the time and expense of a trip to the podiatrist. Each strap is made from durable medical grade cloth athletic tape and can be applied in a matter of seconds. Since launching Support The Foot in 2016, podiatrists, sports medicine doctors and athletic trainers in 19 states and 4 countries have incorporated QUICK TAPE into their practices.
QUICK TAPE Foot Support Straps are also available for online purchase at www.supportthefoot.com.
