Cruel Shoes: Part Three

Welcome to part three in our exciting series on foot relief after a bad shoe experience. Here are two more tips:

Soak your feet in a Mineral Foot Bath. Aside from being relaxing, Epsom salt soaks have long been used to soothe sore body parts, especially the feet. Epsom salt is actually not a salt, but rather a natural mineral of magnesium and sulfate, and can be absorbed through the skin. Magnesium is important for the body to build and repair tissues as its used in more than 300 enzymatic reactions. Warm water allows for the dilation of the body blood vessels and opens the skins pores.

Get a pedicure. The presence of improperly cut toe nails or ingrown nails may cause pain after wearing high heels and pointy toed shoes. And thick focal calluses themselves may be painful. Having a pedicure may directly alleviate these painful areas. SmartToes Toe Stretchers also provide for hammer toe and bunion relief and aid plantar fasciitis treatment.
