Are your feet summer ready?


Pretty summer shoes have an ugly side: heel pain and foot cramps. Fortunately, simple remedies can provide sweet relief. Treat YOUR feet well with these easy remedies and pampering tips.
-Coat YOUR palms with a thin layer of lotion or balm.Look for something infused with a circulation-boosting ingredient, such as peppermint, pine oil, camphor, or rosemary.
-Use long stroking motions.Slowly massage the sole of one foot with both thumbs, starting behind the toes and moving toward the heel. APPLY extra pressure along the arch and at the ball of the foot, two places that are especially prone to tightness.
-Grip the foot with both hands.Gently twist your hands from side to side as if you’re wringing a towel. This may help remove the pain that can develop after hours of standing. End the massage by gently pulling and releasing each toe.
