Orthotics & Supports
Orthotics
Orthotics and arch supports are regularly recommended by physiotherapists, podiatrists and orthotists for the relief of foot pain, heel pain, shin pain, knee pain and back pain. Often, a biomechanical mal-alignment or lack of stability from the foot region can cause abnormal loads on the tissues of the foot and heel, shin, knee or back pain can develop as a result.
Fitting orthotics to ordinary shoes, can negatively affect the balance of the shoe, and also make it difficult to achieve a good fit, as the extra depth of the insole in the shoe lifts the foot slightly out of the shoe. The Sandpiper design, incorporates one or sometimes two removable insoles, so that the extra depth of an orthotic can be compensated by removing the insole in the shoe, and ensure a snug fit against the foot, and maintain the balance of the shoe.

Why You Need To Wear Comfortable Shoes
Are you flat footed? Perhaps you’ve been told (and privately concede) that your feet are a odd unique shape, at odds with the rest of us? Or maybe your twinkling toes simple wiggle excitedly at the end of your especially wide feet? Even if your feet epitomise perfect proportions, with a ballet dancer’s poise, the same conclusion can be drawn: you need to wear comfortable shoes. -
Sandals For Summer & Beyond
Let’s face it, the last thing you want to be thinking about during these sacred summer weeks is a visit to the podiatrist or even putting your feet on ice rather than a sandy beach, all because you wore a pair of sandals or flip flops that did your feet no favours. -
Happy Feet Are Healthy Feet
It’s important that we look after our feet. After all, we spend most of our time on them. That being said, it’s easy to look after the rest of our body and forget about the limbs which carry us around all day. Indeed, our feet are likely to carry us the equivalent of 5 times around the earth in an average lifetime. Here at Sandpiper Shoes we know the value of caring for your feet, and the difference it can make to your long-term foot health and your happiness. That’s why we’ve put together a list of tips for keeping your feet happy and healthy! -
Footwear & Tips For Diabetics
As a diabetic, there are certain things you have to manage, including sore feet. Having uncomfortable feet is perhaps one of the least well-known and understood obstacles that those managing diabetes encounter. Whether insensitive to damage, prone to cuts and infection, or likely to swell, our feet are severely affected by diabetes. Trying to find a pair of shoes which accommodate and make these changes more bearable is difficult, and whilst some shoes like sandals may be fine during the warmer months, you also need a trusty pair of shoes to get you through the winter. -
How to choose the correct shoes
We expect a lot from our feet, and they provide us with the means to enjoy life to the full, yet we rarely give them the attention and care they need or deserve. In fact, our feet are likely to carry us the equivalent of 5 times around the earth in an average lifetime, and we spend nearly 100% of our waking lives wearing footwear, and even so, we often find ourselves wearing poorly fitted, unsuitable, or uncomfortable footwear. That is why at Sandpiper, we are obsessive in providing top quality care for feet. We can express our mission in just 5 simple words: Happy Customers with Comfortable Feet This guide is provided to show you what to look for when selecting footwear, how to keep your feet healthy, and how to enjoy life to the full, simply by understanding what footwear your feet need. -

Corns and Calluses

Rheumatoid Arthritis
Rheumatoid arthritis is a long-term condition that causes pain, swelling and stiffness in the joints. The hands, feet and wrists are commonly affected, but it can also cause problems in other parts of the body. There may be periods where your symptoms become worse, known as a flare-up or flare. A flare can be difficult to predict, but with treatment it is possible to decrease the number of flares and minimise or prevent long-term damage to the joints. -
Bunions:Causes and Treatment
Bunions A bunion is a bony deformity of the joint at the base of the big toe. The medical name is hallux valgus. The main sign of a bunion is the big toe pointing towards the other toes on the same foot, which may force the foot bone attached to it (the first metatarsal) to stick outwards. -
Diabetes
Diabetes is a lifelong condition that causes a person’s blood sugar level to become too high. There are two main types of diabetes: Type 1 – where the pancreas doesn’t produce any insulin Type 2 – where the pancreas doesn’t produce enough insulin or the body’s cells don’t react to insulin. This means that glucose stays in the blood and isn’t used as fuel for energy. -
Sensitive Feet
As we all get older, our feet change shape, and often we lose some of the natural padding on the bottom of our feet, that is present in younger years. Foot pain should not be considered normal, and should be addressed by consulting a professional. -
Shoe Fitting Guide
Correctly fitting shoes, are essential to ensure comfort and support for your foot. Comfortable, properly supported feet, will allow you to live a more active lifestyle, leading to better health and fitness all round. We have put together some points for you to consider when buying shoes. -
Swollen Feet and Ankles
Swollen feet and ankles are usually as a result of Oedema. This is the medical term for fluid retention in the body. The build-up of fluid causes affected tissue to become swollen. The swelling can occur in one particular part of the body – for example, as the result of an injury – or it can be more general. -
Keeping Feet Healthy
Keep your feet clean by washing them every day in warm soapy water, but don’t soak them for too long, as this may destroy the natural oil of your skin. After washing, dry your feet thoroughly, especially between the toes. Apply moisturising cream all over the foot, except for between the toes and use a pumice stone or foot file to gently remove hard skin and calluses. Feet deserve the best, as you depend on them for a lot! Treat your feet to regular care and treatment by a Podiatrist or Chiropodist. -
