Flat Feet Problem
-
MMM:
She asked my ds to do tip toe exercise everyday to improve his condition. 1st observation was that he can squat better now (without falling over like humpty dumpty) though it's just been a few days.
She really has some instant fixes right? I thought it was impossible to fix these types of problems with results so fast one. Also for your son, it just goes to show that the feet actually have many problems, not just plain old flat feet. -

Anyone knows what is the criteria to apply the star card? My DS is already 12, can we still apply?
The star card is from toys r us. You don't need to have children to get the card. I'm quite sure mine was free but it was when I purchased something from there.. -

I will find time to check with the store. -
Wah! Can actually see the arch now. What treatment did she do? Massage? Had thought treatment was only effective for young children. My son (almost 15, size 10 shoes) has flat feet. Doesn’t bother him much except when he has Nafas tests and goes inline skating. My nephews said those with flat feet suffer more in NS, when they have to march/trek/stand still for long hours.

OK! So we went for our 6 month follow-up review with Dr Jessica yesterday and want to share the good health news! :rahrah:
My daughter feet have improved, still not 100% so will need maybe another 6 months or year of treatment. The good news is, her feet can still use the same insoles so no need to buy new one just yet , only need to keep wearing them every day like normal in school. Also was talking with a man in the waiting room from Indonesia, he says that for the past 12 years he has skin problem that all the specialist in malaysia, indonesia and singapore cannot fix, then see Dr Jessica for painful heel, and she also diagnose his skin problem, and his pain is gone and no more skin problem...I thought she only treat bone problem....
I have picture to show my daughter progress but from this computer its not working one. Will try from different comp tomorrow :xedfingers: finger crossed my daughter feet still keep improving! -
Thanks for your sharing & update! Looks like I must bring ds to see Dr Jessica after his exams. ds has flat feet & has been complaining abt leg pains esp when he runs hard.

wow, i learnt so much about flat feet after reading this. I think my niece is suffering the same issue. Will inform my sis about this:)

Wow, this doc seems good! And the price is ok too. I have bought my daughter to a different podiatry in tanglin. She is ok (maybe a little $$ hungry) but price is much more expensive! Last visit paid $580 for insoles… Are they the same as dr Jessica ones? Maybe I will check and see if her ones are the same. If they are… My goodness, how can be such a big price difference??
