Tip #1️⃣: Wear correct fitting shoes to prevent knees and back from hurting 👟

Your feet and lower limbs are often a critical factor in developing or avoiding non communicable health diseases elsewhere in your body. Even if it doesn't immediately seem connected to foot health, the link is real. Think obesity, arthritis, diabetes, heart disease and a range of other conditions.

1 in 4 Australians who saw a podiatrist also had other health issues identified by their podiatrist. *

If you suffer from obesity, arthritis, diabetes, heart disease and a range of other conditions you may need to see a podiatrist. Find your local podiatrist at foothealthaustralia.org.au
