🏃‍♂️ NEW YEAR FITNESS GOALS? Don't Forget Your Feet! 🏃‍♀️

Starting a new exercise routine this January? Your feet need attention too!

Whether you're running, walking, or hitting the gym, proper foot care is essential for staying injury-free:

👟 Invest in proper footwear - Old trainers lose support after 300-500 miles
🔄 Replace shoes regularly - Worn-out shoes can cause pain and injury
🧘‍♀️ Warm up and stretch - Include your feet and ankles
🩹 Address pain early - Don't ignore discomfort
💪 Build up gradually - Sudden increases in activity can strain your feet

Experiencing heel pain, arch discomfort, or ankle problems? Our biomechanical assessments can identify issues before they become serious injuries.

We use advanced Run 3D technology to analyse your gait and create personalised treatment plans. Get your fitness journey off to the right start!

🦶 FOOT HEALTH TIP: Toenail Trimming 101

Did you know improper nail cutting is one of the leading causes of ingrown toenails?

Here's how to trim your nails safely:

✂️ Cut straight across - Never round the corners
📏 Leave a small amount of white - Don't cut too short
🔍 Use proper nail clippers - Not scissors
💡 Cut after bathing - Nails are softer and easier to trim
👀 Check for problems - Look for any redness, swelling, or changes

If you have diabetes, poor circulation, or thick nails, it's best to see a professional podiatrist for nail care.

❄️ KEEP YOUR FEET WARM THIS WINTER ❄️

With temperatures dropping, cold feet can be more than just uncomfortable – they can affect your circulation and overall foot health. Here are our top tips to keep your feet cosy:

🧦 Layer up with thermal socks – Choose moisture-wicking materials to keep feet dry and warm

👟 Wear proper footwear – Insulated, waterproof shoes or boots are essential in wet, cold weather

🏠 Keep feet dry – Change out of damp socks immediately and dry feet thoroughly

🧴 Moisturise daily – Cold weather can dry out skin, leading to cracks and discomfort

🚶‍♀️ Keep moving – Regular movement helps maintain healthy circulation

🩺 Check your feet – Cold weather can mask problems, so inspect your feet regularly for any issues

If you're experiencing persistent cold feet, numbness, or circulation concerns, it's worth getting checked. Our team at R M Callaghan & Associates has been caring for local feet for 75 years.

📞 Call us to book your appointment and ensure your feet stay healthy all winter long.
