Considering the years of experience caring for and treating feet has been important, here’s some basic tips on how to keep feet healthy and happy, no matter where travellers adventure.
- Wear comfortable walking or athletic shoes – It may sound simple, but wearing comfortable shoes is essential when spending hours of vacation time on your feet. Comfortable shoes can help to alleviate the discomfort caused by corns and calluses and help to prevent blisters.
- Do not pack shoes that need to be “broken in” – always avoid shoes that require a break-in period and instead, purchase shoes that feel comfortable right away. This also applies to packing for a vacation. If the shoes hurt your feet at home, they’ll hurt them on the road as well. Always be conscious of how vigorous the vacation activity is and how comfortable your shoes are.
- If shoes do not have sufficient padding or support, improve the performance of your shoes by adding inserts/devices – Quite often the shoes that “best match” a vacation outfit – whether for an afternoon shopping in New York City or an evening of entertainment on a cruise ship – are not beneficial to our foot health. Wear shoes that support feet, allowing for ease of movement wherever your vacation adventure may take you.
- Soak feet nightly – treating feet each night with a specially designed soak will help to ease the discomfort of tired, achy feet. It also moisturizes and softens corns, calluses and rough, hard skin; a luxurious comfort that can be enjoyed in the privacy of a hotel room that will prepare your feet for a comfortable travel adventure the following day.
- Moisturize and exfoliate feet – moisturizing and exfoliating feet can help to reduce the build up of dead skin that results in corns and calluses. It is also a nice, relaxing treat at the end of a long day of sight-seeing, as well as provides a soothing fragrance.
