🦶 Fun Foot Fact Friday

Did you know?

Walking barefoot on natural ground like grass, sand or soil can help strengthen the small muscles in your feet and improve balance. This practice, often called “grounding”, can also reduce stress, and promote a sense of wellbeing.
At The College of Foot Health Practitioners, we remind our students that foot health is not only about treatment but also about prevention and lifestyle choices. Understanding how everyday habits affect the feet helps practitioners give better advice and improve patient outcomes.

💡 Small changes in daily routines can make a big difference to long-term foot health.

🦶 Fun Foot Fact Friday

Did you know?

Your feet have more nerve endings per square centimetre than almost any other part of your body. This is why they are so sensitive to touch, temperature and pain.
These nerve endings play a vital role in balance and mobility, but they can also be early warning signs for conditions like diabetes and circulation problems.
At The College of Foot Health Practitioners, we teach our students how to recognise these important signals and provide expert care that can improve quality of life and prevent serious complications.
💡 Foot health is not just about comfort. It can be the key to protecting long-term wellbeing.
