Dr. Emily Splichal, also known by her female followers as “Dr. Legs,” advanced into the fitness-shoe industry as the go-to-doctor for creating long, lean legs and teaching women how to properly walk in their high heels through her two DVDs, Catwalk Confidence and Stiletto Recovery.

In 2011, Dr. Emily Splichal launched V-Core, the only barefoot balance-training workout that is uniquely designed to improve balance, posture and strength and Evidence Based Fitness Academy. The Evidence Based Fitness Academy is a Continuing Education Institute created to provide scientific and research-based curriculum for health and fitness professionals. To date, over 200 fitness trainers and specialist have applied for the certification in barefoot training through the Evidence Based Fitness Academy. “Studies have shown that the muscles in our feet weaken with prolonged shoe wear, with the best analogy being like our foot is in a cast. Most foot issues I see as a Podiatrist have to do with an imbalance between the small muscles in the foot and the larger muscles of our lower leg. Prevention and management should be centered on strengthening and waking up the muscles in our feet. Barefoot training is one of the most effective techniques for stimulating the nervous system. The bottom of our foot plays such an important role in balance, stability and shock absorption. This means that regardless of age or foot type, everyone benefits from barefoot training,” states Dr. Emily Splichal.

As the shoe industry continues to push the boundaries of heel height, Dr. Emily Splichal will continue to educate women on proper foot and leg strength through her self published book “Everyday Is Your Runway” a shoe lovers guide to healthy feet and legs, available on Amazon.com.
