Save your feet, change shoes!
Our feet do not finish any carrying us. At the end of our life, they enabled us to traverse between 100.000 and 180.000 km… In other words, they should be spared. However more than 80% of the women state to have problems of foot: callosities, dryness, onions, perspiration, etc Why and how to cure it?
Our feet are put at severely tested
Too much tight in escarpins or any other type of shoes to the frayed point, our feet undergoes frictions, which damages the roadbases of the skin and accelerates the renewal of the cells. As for frictions, they are at the origin of callosities or horns, result of an accumulation of dead cells.
It is included/understood well that if our feet are not at ease in their shoes, they reacts and produces in particular a thickening of the layers of cells under the plant of the feet, but also on the edge external of the big toe or the heel.
The prevention passes by the wearing of shoes adapted to the morphology of the foot. Thus the high heels with frayed point are the first types of shoes to be drawn aside…
The high heels make suffer the feet and the back
The high heels always have as much success in spite of the aspirations with very current comfort. However, from time immemorial, the high heels were décriés because of their consequences for the feet and balance. And it is the same of the compensated heels appeared later, in the Seventies…
Point frayed, sole ultra-fine and elevated heel is at the origin of all podologic kinds of evils: horns, onions, toes out of claw, hammer, overload of before foot, etc, but also of problems of back as soon as one carries heels of more than 4 cm. Indeed, a too high heel modifies the muscular tone of the calf what can be at the origin of pains on the level of this muscular unit. By repercussion, the pains can also occur in the lumbar spinal column.
The fact of raising the heel involves a different distribution of the weight of the body between the back and before foot. Before foot finds itself in overload, which causes osseous pains and callosities. In addition, while slipping forwards, the toes are compressed, which gives toes out of hammer and horns on the dorsal part of the toes.
How to spare its feet?
Is it necessary to give up purely and simply the shoes more sails about it, and from time immemorial, which are the high heels? Without banishing them, they should be carried with parsimony. Not the every day and not to go a long time. The remainder of time, it is necessary to privilege the models not too high (a heel of 2-3 cm is ideal), in which one can easily move the toes, with a sole which deadens (thickness from 8 to 10 mm).
And if you change shoes several times per day?
It is without any doubt best solutions.
It is disadvised putting tennis shoes all the day. One also has just seen that one should not either go a long time in high heels nor even in tongs. It is that in fact, the comfort and the blooming of our feet require varied shoes.
One can thus recommend to change shoes several times in the course of the day. The New Yorkeans give us an good example of it by threading their tennis shoes to go in the street, then their high heels once arrived at the office!
