Are your feet Summer Ready?
This month, I’m thinking all about weddings as I recently attended my niece’s in Sweden. It was lovely, and being ‘forced’ into actually taking a well earned break (I am sure that resonates with all you busy busy people out there), I treated myself to a spa day- even Chiropodists’ feet can always benefit from some extra TLC!
Feet Deserve Care Too
Restorative for mind, body and soul, I can still visualise the wise words on a poster above their foot spa: “Your feet deserve some extra loving care”. Hidden away in shoes most of the time, we take these workhorses for granted until issues arise- often long after they could have been easily prevented.
Slipping Into Summer
Slipping into summer sandals, flip flops, or strappy wedding and celebration shoes, no-one wants to see a pile of blisters or unsightly corn plasters! While certain conditions should be treated by a registered chiropodist, common issues like hard skin can easily be treated at home with a simple footcare regime.
A little thought, a lot more fun
Enjoy raising a glass, but alcohol is actually dehydrating, so make sure you alternate with soft drinks or water (a clearer head can also make the night- and next morning- more fun!) Treat your feet to a gentle warm soak when home, and dry well, it’s amazing how refreshing it feels, too.
Looking back over a year of blogs, from top tips and travel to moving the clinic and renovations, I wonder how I’ve fitted it all in! I’ve loved sharing all my news with you, but with a busy New Year ahead, I’m scaling down these regular blogs for a few months to focus on seeing my lovely clients.
You can get in touch for appointments and queries anytime by calling 07725 300290. You can leave a message and myself or Sue will call you back to secure you an appointment. Also keep an eye on my Facebook, where I’ll still be posting my regular updates, tips and news (like the imminent return to super-smart Carnforth Chiropodist Central!). Remember, you can always leave me a private message on my Facebook.
Have a wonderful festive season and start to 2025; I’ll be busy collecting spring feet updates to share!
All the best, Carol x
