PUT YOUR FEET IN OUR HANDS…
It's important that you take very special care of your feet. People of all ages have varying types of problems with their feet. Your children's growing feet can be subject to a range of issues which can cause concern. A percentage of the population suffer heel and arch pain. People with diabetes need special care and attention. Our feet can affect the alignment of the body and injury to them can cause pain in the knees, legs, hips and back.
