For those with able feet, your feet are doing a lot of work getting you to and from, balancing you when you’re sitting or standing–the feet are your body’s foundation. The foot is made up of over 200 muscles, 50 bones, and dozens of ligaments, making foot care an essential to maintaining a well-balanced body and routine.
Our feet play a vital role in regulating our body temperature. Like our hands, they have a large surface area and lots of blood vessels. These can open up to let more blood flow, which allows heat to flow out of them. Feet can also get cold because of poor circulation, which can be the result of a range of health problems, including arthritis, Raynaud’s Syndrome, diabetes, multiple sclerosis (MS), muscular dystrophy (MD) and fibromyalgia. Keeping your feet warm can help to improve circulation and offer much-needed relief to people suffering from these and other conditions. Feet are intimately connected to the rest of your body, with the 72,000 nerve endings in the feet each corresponding to different areas – which is why wrapping your feet in warm towels gives such an all-round feeling of vitality – not just a good feeling in your feet. It can even help to relieve pain in other parts of the body, and generally reduce stress.
You can give back to your feet by alleviating muscle and joint pain and stimulating circulation with a foot treatment or even a pedicure. Since the feet are the farthest from the heart, whenever the body undergoes stress, the feet are the first to lose circulation. Regularly pampering your feet will go a long way in maintaining your long-term foot health.
