~FALL FOOT CARE~
Why Autumn Is A Crucial Time To Love Your Feet
🍁🍂 Summer is over and your feet will now be hidden away in fall socks and boots for the next several months, but contrary to popular belief, now is not the time to take a break on regular foot care. In fact, foot experts say fall foot care is one of the most crucial steps to keeping your feet healthy and beautiful. Don’t believe me? Then maybe podiatrist Margaret Dabbs, the so-called “Queen of Feet”, can change your mind.
The London-based foot doctor is one of the most well-known podiatrists on the planet, and she’s of the opinion that caring for your feet in the fall might be just as important — if not more so — than caring for your feet in the summer. The reason? Your feet have just survived a sweltering summer in flip flops and sandals, and suddenly wrapping them in closed toe shoes (like those gorgeous fall boots you just bought) comes at a cost.

“Feet can leave the summer months feeling extremely dehydrated," Dabbs told The National. "Fall is an important time to really focus on them, and get them back into tip-top condition for the autumn and winter seasons, when they will be hidden in closed footwear, which will exacerbate any skin conditions that may already exist."

HOW TO CARE FOR YOUR FEET IN THE FALL
~ You might think that spring and summer are all about the pedicures, but Dabbs actually recommends people step up their foot care pampering in the autumn. “Women should go for a pedicure twice a month,” she insists, adding that they should also use foot lotion on a daily basis to help maintain the health and elasticity of the skin.

But regular pedicures and daily moisture aren't the only important steps to proper fall foot care. Here are some other autumn foot care routines she and other experts maintain will keep your feet healthy, beautiful and strong through pumpkin season and beyond:

*Take a nail polish break. In the fall, your toenails aren’t constantly on display in flip flops and sandals like they are in the summer. And Dabbs warns that regularly polishing the nails is unhealthy anyway. "The nails can deteriorate as a result of persistent nail color, so it is a good time to go polish-free or wear a lighter shade of polish, which is less hard on the nail as the pigment will be less intense,” she recommends.
*Exfoliate: Slough your feet with a foot file at least once per week — but only on dry skin. “Once the feet are wet, firstly it masks the area to be treated. Secondly, the skin becomes rubbery and so does not exfoliate so well and the foot file will not adhere to wet skin in the same way,” Dabbs says. “Also, if you are prone to cracks in the skin, if you bathe the feet first, the cracks are more likely to open as the water weakens the tissues.”
*Treat yourself to warming foot soaks. Not only will the heated water help soothe and relax chilly autumn feet, foot soaks help decrease stress and can make you look and feel years younger.
*Choose the right fall boots and other types of footwear. Surprising fact: They actually shouldn’t be flats. "If you get yourself a pair of shoes with a thicker heel, not too high and not too flat, with some straps to look girlie but with good support, there is the answer,” the podiatrist shares. “They really do not have to be frumpy. But beware of pain — it is there for a reason.”
*Use the above fall foot care tips year round. The combination will help ward off aging feet, calluses and corns that come along with growing older. “Women suffer from very dry skin on the feet, especially as they undergo hormonal changes, and thin skin and calluses and hard-skin build-up are a result of this,” Dabbs says of how the feet change as a person ages. “The skin thins and becomes paper-fine, the subcutaneous fat is lost, the sweat glands reduce in effectiveness, and the soft tissues or plantar fascia become lax, which is when you get gait-related secondary skin disturbances such as hard skin on the ball of the feet or beside the big toe or on the heels.”

Your feet are what keeps you moving. In the summer, it can be a difficult and thankless job considering they are usually confined to shoes or being exposed to hot surfaces. There are several things you can do to keep your feet healthy and happy during the long, hot days of summer. These foot care tips are easy to manage and will provide your feet with much deserved relief when the day ends and you can finally relax.

Always Wear Shoes or Sandals

Wearing the right shoe at the right time will prevent injuries and keep your feet as comfortable as possible -- no matter what activity you're participating in.

Flip flops may not be the best form of footwear, but they're ideal for the beach and the pool. Cleats and athletic shoes that are designed for the sport you're taking part in will protect your feet and give you the traction you need to enhance your performance.

If you are hiking, walking, or running, make sure to choose the right type of shoe that fits your foot properly. Going barefoot is fine on some surfaces, but don't take chances when you're out in public.

Apply Sunscreen to Your Feet

Apply sunscreen to your feet when you're applying it to your body. The tops of your feet are in the direct line of the sun and need protection, just like your shoulders and your face. Use a moisturizer that contains an SPF of at least 30 and re-apply as often as needed, especially if you're getting in and out of the water.

Moisturizing your feet is essential if they're constantly being exposed to the elements. Many people don't realize that wearing sandals leaves your feet vulnerable to sunlight and other elements that can cause them to dry out and become cracked.

Drink Plenty of Water

Spending long hot days in the summer sun can wreak havoc on your body, including your feet. When your body becomes dehydrated, your feet are often the first to suffer. Not only does your body not use what water it has efficiently, it deprives the tissues of the fluids they need to remain healthy. Drinking plenty of water during the hottest part of the day will help to flush out toxins that can sometimes accumulate in the feet.

Move Your Feet Often

Flex your feet and your ankles. Move your toes and wiggle them often. This keeps the blood flowing and improves circulation. During the hot summer months, your feet can begin to swell. Moving your feet frequently will keep the joints from stiffening and helps to keep the blood circulating freely.

Another way to stimulate positive blood flow to the feet is to massage them. When your feet are hot and tired, massage helps to loosen the tight tissues, freeing up toxins and increasing circulation.

Use an Epsom Salts Soak

After a long day on the playing field or hiking, put a small amount of Epsom salts in a tub of warm water. This relaxes the tissues and helps the body to release toxins. The soothing and calming effect of the water also helps to relax other areas of the body as well. The minerals in the Epsom salts helps to restore and nourish the skin of your feet, especially if they have been sweating inside of shoes for the better part of the day.

Use the above foot care tips to give your feet the pampering they deserve. The long, hot days of summer can take a toll on your feet. Take care to protect them from injury and infection and they will serve you well.
