Hairdressers are standing on their feet
all day, everyday. Research has shown
that over 80% of hairdressers suffer from
sore feet due to prolonged standing at work.
In turn, this will eventually cause health
implications.
The Canadian autoworkers'
union CAW advises it members that, "working
on your feet for more than 30% of the work
shift can produce health effects."

been using Gel Doctor 'Forfootsache' liquid
gel insoles for several months and report
fantastic results.
"During my career I have really suffered
with aching feet. Forfootsache from The
Gel Doctor softens the impact, continually
massages my feet and I feel like I am walking
on air. Virtually all of my 100+ employees
are now wearing 'Forfootsache and they're
much happier and productive, particularly
later in each day'." Daniel Galvin
OBE.
Along with theatre nurses, I have been
using'Forfootsache' liquid gel insoles from
the 'Gel Doctor' at St James's hospital,
Leeds since April 2007. We often spend many
hours on our feet during operations and
have suffered for years with swollen ankles
and referred pain which affects all the
lower body.Since wearing these amazing insoles
discomfort has been reduced to a fraction
of previous levels.I wouldn't operate without
them! Mr. Paul Chumas FRCS

My practice has examined the 'Forfootsache'
insoles from the Gel Doctor and offered
them for use to a number of our clients.
The reported benefits are quite extraordinary
and although we don't believe they're a
substitute for proper orthotics we do accept
that the massaging action of the liquid
gel does improve circulation and in doing
so provide health benefits. Island Podiatry
My day begins early and I'm on my feet
for most of it. I source local ingredients
for my menu and then take care to prepare
the best balance of flavour and nutrition
for our customers. I've suffered for years
with serious aches and pains stemming from
time spent on my feet and this has led to
lower back pain also. Since discovering
'Forfootsache' from the Gel Doctor my life
has changed! The comfort that they provide
for me and my kitchen colleagues has created
a happier and more harmonious atmosphere
and I'm convinced we deliver better meals
as a direct result of this.
Thank you Doctor! Ricard Borot, Head Chef, Courtyard Restaurant.

Reflexologist's report.
The feet are a perfect map of the body.
All the organs, glands and body parts are
represented in the feet. They are the part
of the body which takes the most wear. They
have to bear our weight, they are under
constant pressure and we often cram them
into shoes that don't always fit. The feet
are the part of the body which is the furthest
from the heart and is where circulation
tends to stagnate. This is why people with
bad circulation often have tender or swollen
feet. Pregnancy and certain types of medication
can also make the feet swell and this can
cause great discomfort - especially if you
are on your feet a lot during the day. This
is where Gel Doctor insoles come in - made
with comfortable liquid gel, they are the
perfect solution to many foot complaints
and provide a constant massage to these
poor, neglected parts throughout the day.
Wear them warm if you suffer with bad circulation,
or pop into the freezer to instantly cool,
soothe and re-invigorate swollen, throbbing
and tired, aching feet.
Benefits of Gel Doctor Insoles:
* Use of magnets stimulates & encourages
blood flow, therefore enhancing the
body's own healing process
* Increases circulation to the feet and
lower extremities
* When worn cool they reduce swelling of
the feet
* When heated they comfort and warm the
feet - ideal for circulatory problems
* Provides instant relief to the ball of
the foot - perfect if you wear high heels
* Constant, therapeutic massage to the plantar
aspect of the foot - great news for
those on their feet all day!
Some of the conditions I would recommend
Gel Doctor insoles for are:
* Arthiritis
* Heel Pain Syndrome - caused by repetitive
pressure on the heel
* Metatarsalgia - burning sensation in the
ball of the foot
* Sesamoiditis - irritation of the sesamoid
bones, leading to the big toe.
* Circulatory Disorders
I would recommend Gel Doctor insoles to
everyone. They are the answer for so many
complaints associated with the feet. A true
Godsend to shop workers, hairdressers, therapists,
in fact anyone who is on their feet a lot,
...and ladies, don't let the discomfort
of wearing those killer heels ruin your
night...pop a pair in the freezer before
you go out and just feel the difference
they make...the best product for burning
balls I've come across yet!! Kerri Rix, reflexologist.
As soon as I tried the 'Forfootsache' insoles
I knew I had a solution to the problem we
face every day at our salon....aching and
swollen feet. Now everyone at the salon
is wearing them and we can't believe the
difference they've made. Seneca Love, Hair stylist, January 2008
I've used the 'Forfootsache' insoles daily.
since they were introduced to me in December
2008. As a busy Chiropractor I spend a lot
of time and put a great deal of pressure
on my feet and have suffered as a result
of this in the past. My feet feel a hundred
times better now at the end of each day! Peter Davies, Chiropractor. February
2008.
I love the 'Forfootsache' insoles! I like
to wear my favourite high heels, even when
I'm out shopping but the pain I was in before
I started wearing them practically killed
me.
Now I can shop and never drop! Tiffany Lund, un-reformed and un-repentant
shopaholic!

COMMENT
After spending fifteen years trekking across
the worlds frozen Arctic wastelands my feet
having taken a battering. Whether its the
North West Territories the North Pole or
the Greenland Icecap after months walking
in temperatures as low as minus fifty degrees
my feet suffer from a lower rate of circulation.
While training for another Arctic challenge
I started to use the "forfootsache"
gel insole as part of the meticulous preparation
to try and help reduce the aches and pains
of constantly being on your feet in uncomfortable
conditions, therefore reducing the potential
of possible problems.
Using the Gel Doctors insoles has helped
me by ensuring my feet have been kept in
first- class condition and the soles of
my feet have benefited by the constant massage
as I walk. The insoles will play an important
part in the crossing of Greenland later
this year.
"Look after your feet and they will
look after you"

British team to walk unsupported to the
Geographic North Pole.
