Living with the constant ache of osteoarthritis, tendonitis, or bursitis can significantly impact daily life. While many options exist, finding one that offers lasting, meaningful relief is often a challenge.

Low Dose Radiation Therapy (LDRT) is now being used to address these non-cancerous inflammatory and degenerative conditions. This method, which has demonstrated significant success in reducing pain and improving quality of life for about 75% of patients (based on international findings), works by directly reducing inflammation and modulating pain signals. Treatments are typically short, low-dose sessions spread over a few weeks.

This specialized treatment is now being expanded for patient access in Utah at Holy Cross Hospital – Jordan Valley, with Dr. Leland Rogers leading the program. https://ow.ly/YnmR50WNCuL

Happy National I Love My Feet Day! 👣 Did you know August 17th is dedicated to celebrating these incredible parts of our body that carry us through life? As Dr. Devin Tranter, Utah-based CommonSpirit podiatrist, always says, taking care of your feet is paramount, and it all starts with the right shoes!

One of the top questions Dr. Tranter gets is: "What shoes should I buy or wear?" Here's his expert advice to keep your feet happy and healthy:

▪️ Match Shoes to Activity: Ditch those unsupportive flip-flops for long walking days! Your feet will thank you.

▪️Know Your Foot Type:
Low arches? You're prone to pronation (rolling inward), so look for motion control or over-pronator shoes.

High arches? You're more likely to supinate (roll outward), so you'll need under-pronation or over-supination shoes.

▪️ Check Shoe Support: A good shoe should only bend at the toe box, not in the middle or back, and it shouldn't twist easily. Be wary of overly minimalist or "cloud" shoes for long-term wear.

▪️ Test Before Buying: Don't be shy! Wear shoes in the store for 5-10 minutes. If they don't feel good immediately, they won't magically improve. When in doubt, try one type/size on each foot to compare.

This National I Love My Feet Day, let's put our best foot forward and show our feet the care they deserve! What are your favorite ways to pamper your feet? Share below!
