Get Your Feet Summer Ready with Proper Preparation

As summer approaches, preparing your feet for sandals and flip flops is essential for comfort and injury prevention. Strengthening the intrinsic muscles of the feet helps support the arches and can reduce the risk of plantar fasciitis. Simple exercises such as toe curls, ankle circles, and heel lifts improve flexibility, stability, and circulation. Proper education on foot care and footwear selection also plays a key role. Choosing supportive sandals over flat flip flops can prevent strain and discomfort. Regular moisturizing, nail care, and callus management keep the feet healthy and summer ready. For additional summer foot advice, It is suggested that you consult a chiropodist. This specialist can assess foot function, offer personalized guidance, and treat any concerns before they worsen. 

Summer is the season for many foot and ankle issues. If you’re suffering from a foot or ankle problem, please consult with one of the chiropodists from Complete Family Footcare & Therapy. Our clinicians can help you maintain the health of your lower limbs and your mobility.
