    I have bone spurs on the top of both feet and the permanent callouses on the soles of my feet. I get regular pedicures but they are calloused again after one day back at work. I also have light scarring on my knees from floorwork (which I no longer do). I see a chiropractor regularly for my back and my spine was a whole inch out of line when I started. It's still not great but better. The shoes are murder!

    A girl in my club told me that dancers who have been in the bussiness for more than a couple of years often have trouble during child birth because the extremly high heels we all wear encourages the pelvis to tilt forward permenantly and restricts the babys exit. I am definatly not a doctor and neither is she. Not sure where she got her info from and I dont have any kids so cant back this one up personally. Has anyone else heard this one?

    I've heard this also, but I can't confirm or deny for sure.

    Regarding the ongoing chronic back pain- I got really unbearable lower back pain and went to a physiotherapist (this is just from regular heels/ never sitting and always leaning forward at my regular job). What happens is (to me anyway) the lower ab muscles are not strong enough to endure the pressure put on the back (very very hard to build those things up enough to prevent pelvis tilt because they are so difficult to isolate, even with pilates...my physio kept saying I was doing the kegels wrong if my back raised from the floor even a milimetre). This causes discs to slip backwards because of the pressure and become herniated- not a full out 'slipped disc' but a related chronic issue. To correct it I do backwards tilts lying on my stomach five times a day, ten reps each. I put my hands by my sides and push my upper body up and back as far as it goes. Also, stretching forward and stretching the hamstrings helps a lot, as well as kegels later on. I dunno. This has helped me, but that said dancing wouldn't be the most prudent thing for me to do probably (my knees pop every single time I bend down as well). My other job did this though, and still hurts, so it's no good either. All these shitty things and I'm 20!
