Tom Myers – Understanding Feet and Legs
Description of Understanding Feet and Legs
Your feet and legs are the basis of your under-standing! Take a tour with Tom Myers through the intricate anatomy of the four foot arches, the lower leg muscles and bones, and the relationship from ankle to knee to hip. Learn to deal with both pronated and supinated feet; learn how the arches respond dynamically in gait; learn to unravel complex rotations in the leg with Tom’s unique Fascial Release Techniques.
