1. A cult-favorite pain-relief cream you can apply just about anywhere to relieve discomfort. There's a reason this cream has 19,000+ five-star ratings.
2. A pair of moisture-wicking compression socks that apply pressure to your legs and feet to help with circulation issues and swelling — two common symptoms of standing for long periods of time.
3. Or compression ankle braces so you can still reap the benefits of compression socks while rocking something more inconspicuous.
4. An anti-fatigue mat to keep your feet happy even when you're on your feet for hours. Hairdressers, chefs, and office workers swear by this standing mat for sweet relief from hard, unsupportive floors.
5. A posture corrector you wear over or under your clothes which is said to relieve pressure on your joints and muscles so you can stand without pain. Your mom will finally stop yelling at you for always slouching.
6. Dr. Scholl's massaging gel insoles with cushioning that absorbs shocks so your joints don't bear the brunt of it. Plus, the arch support is clutch for anyone with flat feet.
7. High-waisted compression leggings that work similarly to compression socks, increasing circulation from your waist to your ankles. Plus, these leggings are moisture-wicking and oh so stretchy to prevent itching (!), irritation (!!), and chafing (!!!).
8. A foot roller that'll massage away the pain of a 12-hour shift — no partner needed!
9. A thick yoga mat so you can stretch sore muscles, increase blood flow and flexibility, and prevent future pain after a long day on your feet — ~om~ yeah!
10. Epsom salt to use on its own or mix with relaxing essential oils for the most luxurious bath to soothe your muscles.
11. A heated foot massager that's going to become a key step in your post-work routine. Be prepared for every family member to ask to "borrow" it.
12. A foot elevation pillow to reduce swelling in your legs and encourage deeper, more restorative, pain-free sleep. You want to keep your feet six to 12 inches above your heart for the best results.
13. A pair of cozy loafers with memory foam insoles you can wear to the office while still prioritizing your comfort. BRB gonna go buy them in every single color!
14. A foot rest to give your tired legs a break during the day. Prop your left or right foot on it throughout the day and alternate whenever the other foot gets tired to feel fresh and pain-free throughout the day.
15. Chunky heels with a supportive ankle strap for anyone who hates wearing heels but works in a fancy office or needs to look professional when interacting with customers. No need to bring a backup pair of shoes!
16. A lumbar support back brace to help alleviate the pressure on your spine from standing all day, thereby potentially preventing lower-back muscle spasms and tightness.
17. Comfy Dansko mules that thousands of nurses stand behind as the comfiest shoes ever for walking around in all day. They're pretty darn expensive, but they will last you ages and walking without pain is a basic human right.
18. A set of massage balls to help you get all the kinks out of your throbbing muscles.
19. A memory foam orthopedic knee pillow that's said to help reduce back strain, align your spine, promote better circulation, and alleviate pressure on your knees, especially for side sleepers.
20. A BPA-free Thermos water bottle to encourage you to drink more H2O. Dehydration can lead to muscle cramps, which can get in the way of work, especially if your job requires a lot of movement or heavy lifting.
21. An intimidating-looking acupressure mat that may actually ease pain and loosen tight muscles thanks to spikes that massage your pressure points.
22. A cube-shaped desk timer so you remember to sit every now and then. Instead of setting timers on your phone and getting distracted, simply flip the minute side up to start the countdown.
23. A soft yet supportive toe separator that's discreet enough to wear inside your regular shoes. Over time, it may help correct bunions and hammertoes, making it easier to stand all day without discomfort.
24. A calf stretcher for anyone with painful conditions like plantar fasciitis, shin splints, and tendonitis — which can all get worse when you're running around all day without a chance to sit.
25. A foam roller can target tight, achy muscles. Use it before bed each night to help you wake up pain-free and ready for work.
Pain-free you living your best life:
