I wanted to update everyone with our quest in getting the Asics Foundations back and available for our patients. Back in November we asked our patients, PRC’s & PRT’s, and others who are familiar with Postural Restoration® to sign a petition to Asics or send a letter to them requesting that they don’t discontinue the Foundations. (Thank you Dave Drummer for writing the letter). In the letter we sent to Asics, we also included a video of what we look for in a good shoe and showing them the difference with a “bad” heel counter and how our patients cannot stay neutral in their pelvis with PRI tests being positive and then a “good” heel counter and how the PRI tests changed and were negative and our patient was neutral. It worked!!! They contacted me back in February and were working on bringing the Foundation back. I requested the Foundation 8, as it is the more superior shoe I have found for our patients with excellent heel stability (the newer Foundations were good, but not great). They were trying to find the mold for the Foundation 8 and if they couldn’t find it they were going to try to reproduce it and were going to come to Lincoln. Good news….they found the old Foundation 8 mold and they are coming back to production and will be available January 1st, 2014!!!!! Thank you to everyone who signed the petition and sent letters. Our teamwork paid off!
