Happy Feet During Winter

Now that the cold season is here to stay for a while, it’s a good time to be aware of your feet health. Most of us are guilty of neglecting our feet and look at them with dismay when we take off our socks. We are especially prone to letting our foot care routine diminish in the cold winter months when we just want to bundle them up in fluffy socks and big boots.

Here are a few tips to remember during this season:

• Make sure your shoes fit properly
• Don’t wear the same shoes every day
• Moisturize your feet once a day
• Keep a steady temperature and don’t expose your feet to extreme heat or cold
• Always put on dry footwear (if you wore them in the rain or snow, make sure they are dried properly before putting them back on)

Visiting a Chiropodist as often as you do, or should do, the dentist is a good way to keep your feet in good shape. Maintenance between visits keep your feet happy. If you have any questions or would like to speak to a chiropodist for advice, please feel free to visit our clinic and book your appointment today!
