25.01.2022 With the added outdoor activities helping to spice up our new COVID lifestyles, our feet may need a little more TLC to keep them healthy and on the move. If you've had your runners or walking shoes for over a year or more and you're frequently using them, it may be time to upgrade. Just like the way we upgrade the tyres on our cars, our shoes need to be upgraded too. But for some reason so many of us fail to do this. We take better care of our cars than we do ourselves. Our f...eet are the foundations of our bodies. If our shoes are worn unevenly because of poor biomechanics, they are going to throw us out of alignment even further. This can potentially contribute to back, hip, knee and foot pain. So how can you know whether it's time to replace your old favourites? 1) Check for stress lines on the inside or outside of the heel of the shoe. 2) Check whether the sole of your shoe has worn more on one side. 3) Feel inside the sole of the shoe for any areas that may be compressed and no longer offering support. What do you look for in a supportive new pair of shoes? 1) Check the heel counter is firm. 2) Check the mid sole cannot be twisted. 3) Chose a shoe with laces or adjustable straps to hold your foot firmly in place. 4) The shoe must be comfy!!!! If your pain is still there after a comfortable, supportive upgrade in footwear, then it may be a time to pick up the phone and book in to see a Podiatrist. We are taking appointments on Saturdays and cannot wait to help you to get back out there and stay active! Give us a call on 0459 401 487 to book an appointment.
