Love Your Feet by Pam, Supportive Insoles by Peri Hayes With her admirable ambition and background in healthcare, Pam MacDonald debuted the local Love Your Feet by Pam in 2023. She thereafter opened her physical location of 378 Talbot Street, Suite #7/8 – which is accessible through the south parking lot. Pam is a Registered Practical Nurse, trained as a Podortho Foot Specialist and with psychiatric nursing experience. Believing that feet are the foundation, Pam recognized the significance of operating an array of foot care services in the community. While considering local opportunities for brightening your 2026, Love Your Feet by Pam offers resources to support enhanced comfort and health through your feet. As Pam highlights, “Good hydration, as well as properly fitting footwear is beneficial. So many of us jam our feet into our shoes and boots. Unfortunately, we start as kids cramming our feet into shoes that are fashionable and not necessarily supportive. If your shoes are not an appropriate fit, this can lead to bunions, callus, ingrown nails and overlapping or underlapping toes. This result is because the footwear has not been supportive or ‘roomy’ enough. Footwear is very important.” Pam proceeds to note that there are also factors to be mindful about for those living with diabetes. Most recently, Pam began selling insoles — available in various sizes — which offer arch and cushion support to remedy certain foot conditions. Pam shares that she, herself, wears the insoles to ensure that this product is effective and applicable to her appreciated customers. “If I don’t have them in stock, there is an option to order them online,” Pam assures. “I will include a coupon code for ordering directly from the place where I source them, and can typically have them arrive within a week.” Pam emphasizes that she is thrilled to advise those seeking direction on their foot health journey. As Love Your Feet by Pam is appointment-based, Pam welcomes clients to schedule a consultation for discussing individual needs and building a curated plan of action.
