What's milk got to do with your feet?

One of the essential nutrients for foot health is calcium.
Calcium is not only crucial for building and maintaining strong bones, but also for the health of our foot's 26 bones.
Dairy products like milk, cheese, and yogurt are excellent sources of calcium.
Leafy green vegetables, such as kale and spinach, as well as fortified plant-based milk alternatives, like almond or soy milk, are great options for those following a vegan or lactose-free diet.

Tips for improving sleep and foot health

Elevate your feet: Placing a pillow under your feet at night can help reduce swelling.

Stretch before bed: Gently stretch your calf muscles before getting out of bed in the morning to help with tightness and pain.

Prioritize sleep: Aim for a consistent sleep schedule, as a full night's rest is crucial for your body's regenerative processes.

Address underlying conditions: Work with a doctor and podiatrist to treat any underlying conditions that might be causing pain and sleep problems.

Practice good sleep hygiene: Create a relaxing bedtime routine that may include a foot massage or moisturizing.

Self care is so important.

Did you know lack of sleep can affect your feet?

A lack of sleep can affect your feet by impairing their ability to heal, making conditions like plantar fasciitis or arthritis worse, and impacting your gait and balance. When you are asleep, your body repairs soft tissue and reduces inflammation, so poor sleep hinders this regeneration process, leading to more pain, especially in the morning.

Free parking is here.

There is now free parking avaliable near the clinic at new northgate car park.

Please remember that even though the parking is free, you still need to display a ticket.

I wouldn't want you to get a fine.

How does pregnancy affect your feet?

Pregnancy affects feet through swelling (edema), an increased shoe size due to hormone-related ligament loosening, and pain caused by weight gain and structural changes like flattened arches.

Hormonal changes, increased fluid retention, and pressure from the growing uterus contribute to these issues, which can lead to conditions like over-pronation, ingrown toenails, and varicose veins.

Whether it's help with swollen feet, toe nail cutting or a soothing foot massage, sg podiatry are here to help you through your pregnancy and after the arrival of your little one.

Call us on 07468561546 to find out how we can help you today.

Your diet significantly affects your feet by influencing inflammation, bone health, and circulation, with high-sugar, high-fat, and high-salt foods potentially increasing pain and swelling. Conversely, a diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and omega-3s can reduce inflammation and support overall foot health, while proper hydration is crucial for joint function.

If you would like to know more about foot health and diet, please ask me during your appointment or pop in for a booklet.
