Brook Valley Podiatry

Part of winter foot care means knowing when to move from the outside to the inside, and how to protect your feet while doing so. If you are used to running or working out on pavement or in the grass and you suddenly switch over to astroturf or a gymnasium floor (or for many during the time of Covid, your own living room floor) you may experience injury or pain simply because of the surface change. If you have any questions about safely making an athletic change of any kind give us a call and set up an appointment today! https://brookvalleypodiatry.com//feet-floors-and-sports-i/

How are all of you east coasters faring in the snow? If you DO decide to brave the wet and cold please make sure you are bundling up. Moisture wicking socks and water resistant shoes are two essentials during the wet wintery months!

One of the most important things you can do for your body is to nourish it. Give it comforting things that also are packed full of vitamins and nutrients. Since it's winter and it's cold I've found that eating soups and stews is one of the most comforting things I can do for my body, and this matzo ball soup recipe is nutritious and delicious and packed full of veggies. Try it - there's a reason people call it Jewish penicillin! http://www.eatingwell.com/recipe/247919/matzo-ball-soup/

During the winter months it might be harder to get some of the vitamins and nutrients our bodies need to function at their best. Vitamin D, especially, can be harder to come by since the sun is not out as much. It's more important than ever that we get our vitamins from food or supplements. Food is best, but it's not always possible. For more info on getting the proper vitamins and nutrients you can click the link below. You can also make an appointment and ask any questions you have! https://brookvalleypodiatry.com//from-a-to-feet-nutrients/
