The Foot Practice: Understanding High Arch Feet for Optimal Foot Care

Mar 15, 2024

Introduction to High Arch Feet

High arch feet, also known as pes cavus, is a common foot condition where the arch of the foot is higher than normal. This anatomical variation can impact one's gait, balance, and overall foot health. Individuals with high arch feet may experience foot pain, instability, and other related issues.

Effects of High Arch Feet

Having high arch feet can lead to a variety of foot problems such as:

  • Foot Pain: High arches can put excessive pressure on specific areas of the foot, leading to pain and discomfort.
  • Instability: The lack of foot support due to high arches can result in reduced stability while walking or running.
  • Overpronation: Individuals with high arches may be prone to overpronation, causing misalignment in the lower body.
  • Corns and Calluses: Pressure points on the feet due to high arches can lead to the formation of corns and calluses.
