The Best Foot Therapy-Memory Foam Slippers

Imagine a long, tiring day at work, you reach home and to find a professional spa therapist waiting for you; soothing instrumental music playing and aromatic candles lit, illuminating your surroundings. Well, a pair of memory foam slippers can’t really replace the spa therapist as such but like the saying goes, “Something is better than nothing!”

Memory foam slippers, as the name suggests, are made of memory foam which makes them very comfortable and easy-to-wear. The intriguing name is due to a unique property of this material. It tends to retain the shape (temporarily) of the object that is in close contact with it. The heat and pressure applied to the foam by the object causes it to change its shape. Another fascinating fact about this material is that it was initially synthesized by scientists for NASA aircrafts. Later on, it found many uses- like in slippers, mattresses, and seats for disabled to name a few.

With a snug fit, these soft and fluffy slippers come in many colors and designs. Solid color, dual-toned, or printed, there is no dearth of options. They can be in the form of slip-ons, clogs, flip flops or even with a bow. These are much more functional than the bedroom slippers as the sole is designed in such a way that you don’t have to take the trouble to change footwear to step outside. They are quite sturdy and do not weigh the feet down.  

Combining comfort and style, memory foam slippers are therapeutic. The heat and pressure from our feet cause the foam to conform according to the shape of our feet for the best fit, comfort and therapeutic effect. In winters, memory foam slippers will keep the feet warm and cozy. For people who are not very fond of socks, imagine a mink blanket specially designed for your feet, these slippers act the same way to keep your feet warm and comfortable.

Treat your feet to a pair of these cute slippers. Once you start wearing these, getting out of them will be very difficult. (Think watching just two episodes of your favorite TV show and stopping there, when the whole season is waiting to be seen).

Your Feet Will Thank You for Investing in These Memory Foam Insoles!

I bet you cannot guess who is accredited with the invention of memory foam. For that, we all should be grateful to NASA. Shocked? Yes, it was NASA’s gift to the mankind. And thus began the journey of memory foam mattresses, slippers, sandals, shoes, etc. Then came memory foam insoles that proved to be a boon for the people who are agonized by cold feet. Although memory foam slippers for men are easily available in the market, but not all men prefer wearing them. So for those men, the solution lies in memory foam insoles for slippers. In this blog of mine, I will unravel two kinds of memory foam insoles for slippers for men and women alike.

Cushioned Insoles 

Cushioned insoles are slightly broader than the standard insoles and have air capsules in-built in them. They are detrimental in protecting a person against several health problems like lower back pain, runner’s knee, shin splints, and different types of osteoarthritis. They are best for men who regularly run, owing to the high comfort that they provide.

Orthotic Insoles 

They are specially designed to cater to the needs of each person. They are bulky and hence some people may take time to get used to them. They have three basic types depending upon the degree of their flexibility.

a) Rigid orthotics- They are of a great help to individuals who are overweight or people having uneven legs.

b) Semi-rigid orthotics- They contribute in enhancing the performance of sportsmen. They provide a perfect balance while performing athletic activities.

c) Soft orthotics- Among all the three types, only soft orthotic insoles can be bought without any prescription. They are generally made of lightweight material.

For rigid and semi-rigid orthotics, one has to get a prescription by a specialist surgeon. They are best when it comes to preventing damage to the lower back or healing the joints and muscle injuries. They are also useful for diabetic people and those having arthritis.

So if you have any kind of discomfort while wearing your regular shoes, then you must try these highly comfortable insoles. Keep your feet comfortable, they will take you a long way in life!
