In Bhutan we hiked up to Tiger's Nest starting at 8500 feet and going up to 10,400 feet. In normal walking my foot splays out a bit due to my spasticity. But on downhill stretches the left foot actually pigeon toes in a bit, so all the my weight needing to be stopped presses against my left little toe. It caused a blister and made the last 1000 feet down quite painful. All because my doctors and therapists did nothing to get correct heel strike and correct walking done. My useless PT just demonstrated correct walking and said: 'Walk this way'. What useless instruction! If I could walk that way I wouldn't need a therapist.
