G'day,
All weight bearing exercise causes my feet to ache terribly afterwards. Not right away. A few hours or the next morning. Both feet equally.
I am blaming it on a long standing issue with loose joints. My awareness of this began when my hands would ache while doing massage work and when my ankles would feel like they are coming apart the minute I began to jog. This started many years ago.
Any body have a similar experience or possible suggestions.
Thank you.
Annette Ewer
I have heard that placing Goat's Rue leaves in the soles of your shoes can help. You could also try soaking your feet in green tea. I have not tried it but I have heard good things. Jeanne Rose's book called Kitchen Cosmetics has some nice recipes for foot balms and oils that help with pain. And if you haven't tried Tiger Balm it comes highly recommended. I have noticed that I suffer less aches and pains when I cut way back on the animal products. Just my experience.

In combination with a Kneipp foot bath, it is the ideal way to prime skin for farther foot treatment. http://herbalbeauty.blogtells.com/2008/11/15/eye-lid-sty-home-remedies/

Look into Solomon Seal. Matthew Wood has excellent info in his books.

Simply using herbal powders in the shoes has a long tradition in Herbalism. It works. Some have used Red Pepper, Poke, Sand, Red Clay and many other herbs and products. - Martin

I have not had same issues, but I have had aches from light exercise every morning. I noticed with a diet change and some light foot exercises this helped eliminate my aches and stiffness.
