The Perfect Indoor Relief To Foot Pain
Posted on Mar 27, 2021

As we regularly say, our Healing Sole flip flops are the perfect on-the-go solution to relief.

All you have to do is put them on and get to walking!

Yes, these are great for outdoor wear - but don’t forget that The Healing Soles are also effective for relieving pain at home.

Let's look at why The Healing Sole is a fantastic option for both indoor and outdoor recovery, as well as some of the basics for an effective break-in period and safe daily wear.


HOW DOES INDOOR RECOVERY WORK?


Genuinely, the process is simple! You just have to wear our footwear around your home.

Just make sure to follow our break-in process, which we’ll go into more detail about shortly.

Wear your flip flop as you go about daily tasks in your morning and evening, or your full day if you have finished the break-in process. 

While you stand and walk, The Healing Sole will engage the muscles of your feet and lower legs to help alleviate any stress and tension that has built up as you slept.

It will also prevent any additional pain from developing throughout the day.

Rather than combatting tension, your muscles will instead be free to focus on tissue healing and overall recovery.

This flip flop was designed to empower your body to heal itself.

We like options, and we know that you do, too.

That’s why we have several colors and styles to choose from, like our beautiful Lunar Grey Palmers!

These flip flops are a cool-toned grey that acts as a perfect neutral to pair with any outfit.

Not sure which style to choose? Here’s the major difference between our original and Palmer flip flops:

The Original

Our original Healing Sole flip flops are designed with these key features:

  • Moderately-raised arch support
  • A compressible inner heel for cushioned relief
  • Non-compressible outer heel for added support
  • A rocker bottom sole for gentle muscle stretching
  • A metatarsal bar beneath the toes and balls of the feet
  • An elevated toe ramp for additional stretching

This style alleviates pain from plantar fasciitis, heel spurs, morton’s neuroma, and general foot pain.

VS

The Palmer

Our universally-accessible Palmer flip flop is designed with similar features and one key difference: Moderately-raised arch support

  • Moderately-raised arch support
  • A compressible inner heel for cushioned relief
  • Non-compressible outer heel for added support
  • A rocker bottom sole for gentle muscle stretching
  • A metatarsal bar beneath the toes and balls of the feet
  • A neutral toe for additional comfort and less irritation at the forefoot

The absence of a big toe elevation makes this style comfortable for all foot types and conditions while offering the same pain relief you love from our original flip flop.


WHEN SHOULD YOU USE CAUTION?


Please note that while our footwear can be worn both indoors and outdoors, we do not advise wearing our footwear in wet conditions.

The soles of our flip flops have a textured rubber pattern for effective gripping on various terrains, but walking on wet surfaces can be treacherous.

We do not recommend wearing our footwear at the pool or in the shower, and you should walk carefully on wet ground.

If you wash The Healing Sole – which you can do using a gentle soap and warm water – just make sure to let them dry thoroughly before wearing again.


KEEP OUR BREAK-IN PERIOD IN MIND!


The main factor to remember is that our footwear has a 7-14 day break-in period. This is essential to your success in our footwear! 

  • MORNING WEAR:

    When you first wake up in the morning, step into our footwear.

    Walk around in them for a few hours while you start your day – brush your teeth, make your coffee, cook breakfast, and step outside.

  • WHAT TO DO IN THE AFTERNOON:

    Switch into another pair of supportive shoes when you need to leave in the afternoon.

    Go about your day and your errands.

  • EVENING WEAR:

    When you get home, slip The Healing Sole back on for the last few hours in your evening.

You can steadily increase the amount of time that you wear The Healing Sole until you can wear them all day! However, Dr. Meredith Warner still recommends alternating your footwear.
