Read on to discover exactly what you need to do to fix your bow legs once and for all, and enjoy perfectly straight and attractive legs for the rest of your life!
To determine whether or not you have bow legs, knock knees, or any other kind of curvature, take a look at the following images…
IMAGE A: This is the way your legs should look. As you can see, your knees and ankles should be touching when you stand up, and four separate windows should be formed, which should be between the foot and the ankle, above the ankle, directly under the knee, and above the knee in the lower part of the thighs.

Unfortunately, the Doctor said there was nothing he could do – and that I’d just have to deal with it. I did, to a certain extent, and got on with my life.
After injuring my back in a horse riding accident, I visited a physiotherapist, who took one look at me, and said, “I know exactly what you need to do to fix that!” He wasn’t talking about my back problem. He was talking about my legs! He went onto to explain that while at a conference, he’d met a Japanese Orthopaedic Surgeon called Suri who had taken on a test group of 34 subjects, 21 with bow legs, and 13 with knock knees. And the results she’d achieved for her patients had been incredible. Apparently Suri had already seen the complications and long-term damage that surgery had caused many of her…
