Editors' note

Paul Thompson is a veteran podiatrist with a decade of experience under his belt. Passionate about natural and sustainable foot health, Paul has taken an unconventional approach by advocating for a barefoot lifestyle.

After years spent experiencing aches and pains while using orthotics, Paul decided to look for alternatives. He realized that modern convenience, such as cushions and supports, often puts us in unnatural positions for extended periods, leading to discomfort and pain.

Qualifying as a Barefoot Trainer, Functional Movement Specialist, and a Pilates Matwork Instructor, Paul has a comprehensive understanding of human walking patterns and foot posture. His methodologies are centered around functional barefoot greatness and seek to identify and treat underlying problems rather than just alleviating symptoms.

His services include:

  • Treating mobility issues and teaching how to maintain mobility for life.
  • Activating weak stabilizing muscles affected by poor biomechanics and compensatory movement patterns.
  • Improving posture naturally for efficient and powerful movements.

Paul’s personal experience as an active father, struggling with discomfort due to orthotic reliance, sparked a desire to help others regain control of their active lifestyles. His journey with The Barefoot Movement is not merely a professional endeavor but an effort rooted in personal struggles and victories.

Paul’s comprehensive online services are ideal for individuals who want to embrace a healthier, active, and sustainable lifestyle. His unique approach will appeal to anyone seeking a natural solution to foot posture and overall foundation health.
