The results of these excessive demands mean that four out of five adults will at some time complain of foot health problems. In order to stay mobile, professional care of your feet is a true necessity.
The Maligned Florida Foot
No, Floridians are not born with different feet than other Americans. But our feet do have a different environment to survive in. Most homes and buildings are slab built with lots of tile. These are very hard surfaces, even when covered with carpeting. Our warm, moist climate encourages growth of infection and yes, if it moves it bites and if it bites it is poisonous. So insect and critter bites as well as exposure to toxic plants are a common problem, as is exposure to the chemicals we use to control these hazards.
Combine these unique problems with our tendency to be barefooted and you get the Maligned Florida Foot!
