I have found that it is also important to rehab the Windlass Mechanism. (how far the big toe can dorsiflex or bend). Backwards walking with extra care to keep the foot from flaring and activate the gluts. is a great way to start. Also yoga, especially warrior 3 is a great proprioceptive and post tibialis work out and should help control over pronation. I have found that I have been using my orthotics less. Yee Ha!!!
