Guest guest Posted May 14, 2004 Report Share Posted May 14, 2004 Aloha Carole- I was never told that the confinement of a shoe would help straighten them out, but it makes sense. I just thought they would always be like that. I even emailed photo's to Dr. P about it and he just said it was common and not to worry about it. I've been told barefoot is best and we live in Southern CA, so in summer is almost always barefoot as well!
