[quote=Anonymous]I will just chime in that they do not allow one to walk properly. When the foot hits the ground, that phase of gait (walking) is called heel strike. From there we transfer the weight through our flat foot and roll forward pressing off with our toes. Heelies prevent a child from achieving heel strike, then affects each subsequent phase of gait. (I am a physical therapist). [/quote]
