Foot Pain Relief for Nurses & Healthcare Workers in DFW

Support that keeps you moving — shift after shift.

Nurses, CNAs, techs, and frontline healthcare workers spend more time on their feet than almost any other profession. Long shifts, hard hospital floors, constant walking, and the physical demands of patient care all add up, and foot pain becomes more than an inconvenience. It affects comfort, mobility, and long term health.

As a Board Certified Pedorthist serving the DFW community, I provide targeted, evidence based solutions designed specifically for healthcare professionals who give so much of themselves every day.

Why Healthcare Workers Experience Foot Pain

Healthcare environments create a perfect storm of stress on the feet:

  • 12+ hour shifts on hard floors

  • Constant walking and rapid directional changes

  • Lifting, transferring, and supporting patients

  • Standing for long periods during procedures

  • Compression from tight or unsupportive shoes

  • High stress → increased muscle tension and fatigue

These demands often lead to:

  • Heel pain (plantar fasciitis)

  • Ball of foot pain (metatarsalgia)

  • Arch fatigue

  • Achilles tightness

  • Ankle instability

  • Knee, hip, and low back pain from poor alignment

You take care of others your feet deserve the same.
