The late Dr. Simon Wikler, chiropodist and inventor of the shoe for Buster Brown devoted his life to educating the public about the importance of wearing shoes that fit and support the shape and function of feet. The greatest impetus for his passion began after he attributed the early death of his mother to shoes she wore.

Feet are very resilient and deserve great respect for all they do for us. Weighing only two percent of our total body, these small appendages have herculean strength, capable of bearing tremendous stress and weight- in fact according to the late Osteopathic Doctor, John Martin Hiss, the ligament structure of feet can withstand the weight of 7860 lbs per square inch……
Neil and I arrived in Fairbanks, Alaska 7:30 p.m. on the 11th of September, 2019.
We were greeted at the airport by Neil’s brother Glenn and his son, Wolf Song . After checking in to our sweet Bed and Breakfast, Ah, Rose Marie, we drove to Glenn’s family cabin where we received a warm welcome from Trisha, Amelia, and…..
Are you one of many who wear away the outside edge of shoes? If so, you may be susceptible to developing tarsal tunnel syndrome, plantar fasciitis, chronically sprained ankles, and tight hip flexors. But don’t despair there is hope. Allow me to explain. Like clockwork, 13 muscles in the lower leg move the foot in a specifically timed and coordinated manner. When the edges…..
If you have chronic shoulder pain you may want to check out the ball (fifth metatarsal head) beneath your little toe area for a possible answer and that would be, a callus. Calluses that appear on the foot is a sign one is developing a foot problem and the location of a callus means the associated reflex is also reacting.

Since the early years of my reflexology practice I’ve been particularly fascinated with how accurate the curves of the medial arch of the foot match the actual spinal curvatures of that individual. Many of my clients have verbally expressed feeling tension in the muscles along their spine melt away when the arch of their foot is reflexed during their reflexology session, reassuring its microcosmic…..
In her book Love Without End, Glenda Green explains more and more people are entering into a lighter phase of being as they transform into higher purpose. She explains how we are walking rainbows to varying degrees of brilliance, and these displays of light energy are becoming more visible to our senses as we rise higher in consciousness.
She further elaborates…..
Locked or misaligned foot joints will change the normal pattern of weight distribution and this is the leading cause of bunion.
Yesterday I worked with a client who made her reflexology appointment for stress management. She expressed feeling chronically exhausted but goes about her day as if it’s a normal way of being. “Oh”, she said, and by the way…..
All of my illustrations have a reflexology undertone using the feet and associated reflexes.
