I am usually on my feet while at work. I spend at least 10 to 12 hours a day just walking around the place. I rarely get breaks & when I do, I am usually sitting & talking with coworkers. By the time I return to my apartment at the end of the day both my feet are incredibly sore. I try rubbing them in the evenings, wearing strange shoes, & even propping them up for a hours at a time when I get home. But nothing seems to help. When my hubby decided to install our radiant heated floors, I was psyched to not have cold feet when I step out of the shower. I knew I would absolutely like having them in my washroom. What I wasn’t’ expecting was for them to make such a large difference in how my feet are feeling. When I get apartment from work now, I can’t wait to take my shoes off & assume that sizzling floor on the bottoms of my feet. I take them off as soon as I get in the door & periodically, I just rest there for a few hours & let all the heat sizzle them up. I am not sure what it is exactly about these floors, that make my feet assume instantly better, however as soon as they start to get warmed up, the pain goes away. I spend most of my workday looking forward to getting to my apartment & sitting in my doorway for a few hours just to find some relief. The radiant heated floors are simply great in every room & nobody in my apartment wants to wear socks or shoes any longer.
