Do you feel foot pain? What causes it and what helps to cure it?
In the past, people used to walk around barefoot, no matter the temperature or whether it rained or not. It is hard to imagine that these days. And it’s even harder to walk down a street without longingly looking into the shop widows with shoes and not admire all the modern and designer pieces that we would all like to have at home. Unfortunately, we tend to prioritize quantity over quality quite often.
