Moms Love High Heels

Source: Spa Resorts

It is definitely an ongoing discussion as to the benefits and downfalls to wearing high heels but come on, with all the amazing styles and colors there is no ache that a little foot rub or soak can't solve. As a back up here are some reasons for wearing high-heels:

  • they change the angle of the foot with respect to the lower leg, which accentuates the appearance of calves
  • they change the wearer's posture, requiring a more upright carriage and altering the gait in what is considered a seductive fashion
  • they make the wearer appear taller
  • they make the legs appear longer
  • they make the foot appear smaller
  • they make the toes appear shorter
  • they make the arches of the feet higher and better defined
  • they make the lower leg muscles more defined
  • they make the gluteus maximus more defined
  • they may improve the tone of a woman's pelvic floor
