HIGH HEELS

Did you know that high heels may contribute to knee and back problems? If women persist in wearing high heels, there are ways to relieve some of the abusive effects:

  • They can limit the time they wear them
  • Alternating high heels with good-quality oxford-type shoes or flats for part of the day
  • Buy shoes in the afternoon to prevent tight shoes, since feet tend to increase in size later in day
  • See your podiatrist for a custom made pair of orthotics for your high heels
Although heels may look nice, they can be detrimental to your foot health if you ignore the above tips!
