I spend a lot of time keeping my feet happy. The balance in my right foot is off and I have an arthritic toe, so If I don't follow these tips on a regular basis, my feet are miserable!

Achey feet? Follow our 3-step plan and show your tootsies some love before flip flop weather hits!

Rise and shine. Elevating your feet whenever you get the chance is the first step to relieving and preventing foot pain. Lie back, relax and put your feet up at a 45 degree angle for 10 to 15 minutes and you'll feel instantly rejuvenated. Why? Raising your feet switches the flow of blood away from your toes and toward your heart, helping to reduce inflammation and swelling in your lower body.

Wade in the water. Give your feet a proper soak with healing Epsom salts in a basin of warm water. Epsom salts naturally reduce swelling, and as little as 10 minutes of soaking will relax even the most overworked feet.

Apply pressure. Who doesn’t enjoy a foot massage? A good foot rub will get your blood circulating while targeting the thousands of nerve endings in your feet—the perfect excuse to ask your honey to attend to your toes.
