Re: orthotics vs birks -- and back pain
Posted by Angie on 2/21/99
I agree, try to Birks first. Mine helped immediately. I must be a rare bird but I did not even have a break in periord. I put them on and wear them with not pain -- just relief. My feet are better (when I am wearing them) and the chronic pain I have had in my hip and back for 5 years is much, much better. Hubby about croaked when he realized I paid $160 for a fully encloed pair of Birks but when I told him that was still less than 3 visits to the chiropractor he settled down. I will probably be a lifer for Birks. I just ordered a pair of their inserts to see if I can salvage any of my other shoes. I'm not too hopeful because I have come to really appreciate the wider toe box in the 6 weeks I've been wearing them. Good luck in finding something that works for you! I think it is a lot of trial and error.
