Zero Drop Shoes/Barefoot Shoes a Must to Fix Pectus Excavatum

The picture below illustrates how the curvature in the upper back (an arrow points on it) comes to exist because of ordinary shoes. I recommend strongly to consider buying a pair of zero drop shoes/barefoot shoes. Just google it and you will probably find something of interest. As long as the curvature of the spine is present pectus excavatum will be created. To be up on the feet in movement with a pair of zero drop shoes/barefoot shoes is probably the easiest and most effortless way to make improvements to PE. Everyone should use this kind of shoes to make humanity a lot healthier.

  1. Hey you should honestly make a book. Even just a PDF file, or possibly an e-book. I'd pay a few bucks.

  3. Hi!

    Great blog, so many interesting info! I'll try these exercises =]

    Congrats!

  4. Felipe: I wish you Good Luck. I am absolutely sure (some have already sent me personal messages telling me that this information have helped them) that you and others will benefit from my blog. BTW: I really hope that people understand the importance of keeping a 100% perfect posture. If the heel is lifted up there will be a change (in some cases just a few percent) that causes a chain reaction that “forces the upper back over the edge”. The secret about fixing pectus excavatum is to turn the margin to your advantage.

  5. My grandfather had pectus excavatum too. But in his childhood he had no shoes :)) So, naturally he was walking "barefoot shoes". I have PE too. My aunt and mother have PE too. It's all genetically reasons to us.

  6. A short description; how PE sometimes develops: Some people are born with PE, but we don’t wear shoes before birth. Some people develops PE shortly after birth (within the first month) and they don’t wear shoes so early. Some people develops PE sometimes during the first years without wearing shoes. My theory just points out ordinary shoes as the main cause to HEAVY development of PE. Pectus excavatum is definitely inheritable and therefore genetic. If there are no genes for PE there will be no PE whatever one do. Development of PE is according to my theory hugely complex and therefore the myth about “congenital” have come to exist.
    Summary: PE is inheritable/genetic but NOT congenital. Congenital=a specific period (not after the first month). To say that a disease or disorder is congenital it must strictly develop within a specific period. It is a medical definition and is not the same as “present at birth”.

  7. "Present at birth" is very usable phrase which is perfect to use in the case of PE. For example you can ask someone; was PE present at birth in your case. The person may say; NO, it started to develop during puberty. If PE was congenital, it would be impossible for it to start to develop later on. Cingenital is stricly: Present at birth. Inhertable or genetic can be both. Not even dictionaries can't tell this right sometimes.

  8. Thank you for the explanation. But what could be the purpose, if it came later after birth to me. Maybe soft bones? (Bones of babies are different than adult, maybe it just could be not visible suddenly after birth?) I hadn't rachitis as a baby.
    I had to surgeries when I were teenager. It wasn't very deep. And I felt just big aesthetic discomfort, because I am a woman.The doctor told, that surgery could fix it. But 1 operation was unsuccessful. It looked worse than before, even I had big scar in front of the chest.Then after two or three years I was operated the second time. After it looked better, but even not perfect, even I had a scar and little pit under the right breast. And now, sometimes I have difficulties with my breathing. Some doctors think that there are no medical reasons for disturbing breathing, and they don't know why. Maybe it could be somatic symptom (for being nervously), I don't know. The period after surgeries was hard too.
    If the time was turned back, I never do any operations. Doctors are not gods. Maybe it was my faith to have it. Of course, I can never go to the beach in summer with bikini and I should look what T-shirts I buy. It should be closed.
    And the interesting information to me is, that people with PE are thin. I am very thin. 181 cm and 61 kg. And always were. (Where could I read more about it, and who discovered it and compered) But being thin is maybe better than being fat. :)

  9. Yes, the good part with PE is that overweight is uncommon. I recommend that you read my whole blog which includes theories about the whole thing. But one thing is for sure; PE has nothing to do with the skeleton in the meaning "weak bones". My theory says that bones gets out of position for different reasons. If you can't find answers to your question marks on my blog just let me know.

  10. Thank you for the conversation :) These days I am little surprised. I am reading about this disease everywhere in English. I was never interested in this problem before. It was so common to have it. I felt like I am the only one in the world, except some my family members - that have this too. I found one page, maybe it would be interesting to you. It describes that this illness could depend on zinc deficit in the body...I was surprised. Because the some symptoms are of mine too. I have acne sometimes, white spots on nails, I am very thin and etc...: http://www.ctds.info/zinc1.html#pectus

    Today I bought zinc tablets. I just added the link, to look you too.

  11. Aurelija: According to my theory, the reason for skinniness in people with PE, is over activity in the breathing process, which means that the metabolism will be faster because of the higher activity in the diaphragm. This will rise the demand for almost every form of nutrition and therefore the risk for lack thereof will increase. I think that it might be a good idea to eat supplment and a lot of calories as long as one don’t get fat. This may possibly help the recovery process. My view in general is that there is no simple answer to the question why PE develops. If PE in general was caused by for example zink deficit, the medical world would already found out about its cause. Or if PE was caused by weak bones, there would have been a huge overrepresentation of other deformities of the skeleton in people with PE (that is NOT the fact). In short what I’m convinced of: there is a clear relation between connective tissue disorders, flat feet and PE. It is the connection between muscles and bones which is the reason to the possibility to development of PE. Unnatural ergonomics + genetic inheritable factors works together in the development of PE, no matter when it starts. Even before birth the environment have changed compared to Stone Age, simply because babies are getting a lot bigger today. Babies are pure practically more curved before birth today. It is a change in the environment which makes some ”old good genes” to not fit in to this dramatic environmental change. I ask myself the question: did PE exist at Stone Age? I’m not so sure about that it did. Except very mild cases, it’s rather probably a modern ”syndrome”. Thank you too.
