Cracked heels can quickly become a serious problem if they’re ignored. Let’s dive in to learn why our skin must be protected and nurtured to keep it intact and doing its job!
Heel pain is a common issue for many adults, often affecting mobility and overall quality of life. It occurs when there is irritation or damage to the soft tissues in the foot, usually due to overuse, injury, or improper footwear.
Wearing the right shoes to work can make all the difference when it comes to comfort and overall foot health. For many of us, a significant portion of our day is spent at work, and we may be required to be on our feet for extended periods. Choosing the right footwear can help you to feel comfortable throughout your day and optimize your overall foot health.
You might be asking “So why is shoe width important?” Every foot is unique, just like every person. Some of us have narrow feet, while others have wider feet.
Do you ever have a day where you have to say no to an activity because your feet just hurt? We understand that life gets busy and can keep you on the go much longer than anticipated.

Our feet are a complex structure of muscles, tendons, ligaments, bones, and joints that must all work together for proper function. If feet are abnormally positioned or alignment is off, the rest of the body could suffer.
