At Bondi Podiatry, we understand the importance of proper footwear for overall foot health. Your feet are the foundation of your body and the way you walk, run, and stand has a direct impact on the health of your feet and the rest of your body. The right shoes can help to prevent pain and injury, while the wrong shoes can cause pain and lead to more serious problems.

Proper footwear should provide proper support, cushioning, and stability. It should also be the right size and fit properly, with enough room for your toes to move. High heels, for example, can cause a lot of problems because they force the foot into an unnatural position and can cause pain in the foot, ankle, and knee. On the other hand, shoes with a low heel and good arch support can help to prevent pain and injury.

At Bondi Podiatry, we recommend that you choose shoes that fit well and provide good support. Avoid shoes that are too tight or too loose, and make sure that the heel is not too high. If you have any specific foot or ankle conditions, such as flat feet or high arches, we can help you choose shoes that will provide the support and cushioning you need.

In addition to choosing the right shoes, it's also important to take care of your feet by keeping them clean, dry, and moisturized. You should also take care of your toenails by cutting them straight across and avoiding cutting them too short or keeping them too long.

At Bondi Podiatry, we are committed to helping you achieve and maintain overall foot health. If you have any concerns about your foot health, please don't hesitate to schedule an appointment.

We look forward to helping you achieve a pain-free, active life!
