Foot Health: a talk by podiatrist Marie Hegarty

Join us at Galway City Library on Saturday 17 February when Marie Hegarty (BSc. Podiatric Medicine & MA in Health Promotion) will join us to talk about feet!

Marie is a specialist in Muscoskeletal and Sports Podiatry and is passionate about helping people live active and healthy lives.

Marie will talk about the importance of foot health and how to care for your feet at home. At the end of the talk, you will know how to: ● Choose the right shoes for your feet ● Care for your toenails and skin ● Prevent blisters and calluses ● Keep your feet clean and dry ● Recognise the signs of common foot problems ● Keep your feet strong and mobile

This will be of interest to people of all ages, but particularly those engaged in sports, those suffering with foot problems currently, and anyone fond of the kind of shoes that hurt your feet.
