I never thought I would be grateful for shoe inserts but it turns out I am! In the past few months they have helped my youngest to correct a pronating problem and recently I decided to give them a go for myself as I have been experiencing major hip pain due to my walking on the treadmill.

Since wearing them in the shoes I walk on the treadmill with my hip pain has diminished significantly. Along with stretching and walking a bit slower I think I have been able to hold off on going to the Doc for a while, maybe "forever". So I am grateful for the shoe inserts because they are a cheaper option than surgery or even PT and because they have helped my hip pain, which was becoming almost unbearable as I could barely walk, fade away. What is something you didn't think you would be grateful for but it turns out you are?

I remember doing worksheets and class lessons on maps and I was able to skate by ...
