Beach Feet for Better Feet

Tips on Tuesday

Often enough things that improve our health are tedious or uninspiring but today I am sharing a foot tip that puts a smile on most faces.

Get your feet to the beach!

That's right !!!

One of the best things you can do for the good of your feet inside and out is to take a walk in the sand.

Walking barefoot in the sand excises muscles in the feet that are usually neglected and gets all those tendons moving. Also, the sand will smooth the skin of your feet and they will be notably softer from regular strolls in the sand.

For developing “kid” feet the sand is ideal as it strengthens their arches and encourages toe gripping which gives your kids a great foundation for healthy feet and and good balance.

You don't live near the beach? Get creative! Build a sand box or book a much needed vacation to a sandy destination.
