Chiropractic Footcare – Some tips to take care of your Feet

Posted by:

Amongst other things, chiropractors frequently also treat feet!

Each foot is made up of a total of 26 bones, and damage to any one of them, or related muscles, ligaments or cartilage can result in problems with the foot that may need attention from a trained professional in order to prevent longer term damage.

  • Here are some tips for keeping your feet in good condition:
  • Inspect and feel your feet daily for cracks, corns and ulcers
  • Toenails should be cut straight across, not too close to the skin.
  • Take extra care when walking barefoot.
  • A well fitting shoe should not require a long and painful breaking in period.

Pay good attention to your feet; changes and/or pain in the feet and ankles could indicate a more serious foot ailment or circulatory problem
