New Year's Foot Fixes

As the ball drops and rings in another exciting New Year, many enthusiastic revelers will sport their favorite pair of sassy slingbacks and other types of fashionable high heels. However, American women often pay a hefty price for their New Year’s footwear – resulting in blisters, arch and heel pain and much more!

Start the New Year off on the right foot with these sole-saving, New Year’s footwear solutions:

Problem: Burning sensation on the balls and toes of the feet.

Solution: Douse foot flames with Walk Healthy’s Metatarsal Pads and Pan Metatarsal Pads or Pedi Mates. These pads cushion your foot while protecting against painful skin abrasions and help to quell irritation and discomfort caused by friction.

Problem: Shoe soles can be hard on feet, especially near heels.

Solution: Powerstep Orthotic Supports, these orthotic shoe inserts are doctor recommended, provide arch support, and come in two different varieties in order to fit your shoe style needs. You can also try custom orthotics that are molded to your foot shape by our doctors.

Problem: Slingbacks can dig deep into heels, leaving blisters and painful abrasions.

Solution: Provide a protective barrier between the strap and your skin by using moleskin to prevent blisters and strap slippage, so you can comfortably party into another successful New Year. We offer Sling Stays at our office. These pads keep the backs of your shoes from slipping, rubbing, or sliding!
