Beaver Valley Foot Clinic: The Price of Fashion is a Toll on the Toes

The Price of Fashion is a Toll on the Toes

Millions of women routinely ignore the pain caused by their high heels. While some call it the “price of fashion,” it really takes a toll on their toes, which can actually be reshaped to resemble hammers. 

  Aptly called hammertoes, this condition may trigger other problems, or even require surgery. So, if your feet are sore, wear lower heels.  If that doesn’t help, call us immediately.

Beaver Valley Foot Clinic: Occasionally Wearing Stilettos Can Up Your Risk of Injuries

Occasionally Wearing Stilettos Can Up Your Risk of Injuries

Wearing super-high heels regularly may cause foot problems; but donning them occasionally is dangerous, too, especially for extensive walking and/or dancing.  Indeed, if you’re unaccustomed to them, you’ll be, well, upping your risk of developing pain, blisters, corns and calluses, spraining your ankles, and hurting your knees.

So, if you’re stepping out on Valentine’s Day, choose lower shoes, and dance the night away!

BV Foot Clinic: Don't Let Stilettos Be Your Downfall!

Don’t Let Stilettos Be Your Downfall!

Ultra-high heels are even more dangerous at this time of year.  Worn more often, because of all of the holiday parties, most have no traction or support at all, making it downright treacherous to walk in icy or snowy conditions. 

Furthermore, falling in high heels is more hazardous, too, as it can cause ankle sprains.  So, wear heels that are no more than 2” high, because sticking to stilettos could be your downfall.

The Foot Clinic and Sound Medical Technologies; A Shocking End to Plantar Fasciitis

A Shocking End to Plantar Fasciitis

 

We can bring your plantar fasciitis to a shocking end.

 With Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy (ESWT), we focus a shock wave on the heel, causing a micro-trauma to the damaged tissue.  This triggers the healing process, by initiating the formation of blood vessels, and allowing more nutrients to reach the affected area.

A safe, painless, procedure, ESWT takes only 30 minutes, and requires no down time. 



Beaverr Valley Foot Clinic: Proper Diabetic Foot Care Starts on the Inside!

Proper Diabetic Foot Care Starts on the Inside

 

 

Proper diabetic foot care means more than simply avoiding injuries.  Indeed, one of the most serious problems, diabetic neuropathy, occurs when high blood sugar levels restrict blood flow to the feet.  This damages the nerves and causes numbness, burning, and tingling.    

 

If you’re experiencing these symptoms, call us immediately.  Our in-office treatment can restore sensation to your feet, and lessen the chances of further complications.
