We will help reduce heavy calluses, corns and trim deformed or thickened nails. We also assess feet for circulation, sensation, oedema (swelling) and can fill the gap where Podiatrists are unable to come out to the patient’s home because the patient is home bound and too sick to get to the Podiatrist.
Neglecting your feet can lead to other related issues such as poor balance and can even impact your lifestyle. Pain caused by unmanaged symptoms and complications can lead to a less active lifestyle.

BENEFITS OF FOOT CARE & HEALTH
Early Detection of Problems
Receiving regular foot care can help you and your Podologist detect early signs of corns, bunions and fungal infection. The conditions are easier to treat when they are identified in their earlier stages.
Decreases Chances of Infections
Clipping, cutting and cleaning of the toenails prevents them from growing inward and causing infection. The elimination of dirt and bacteria from your feet will also help prevent nail diseases disorders (fungi) and foot odours.
Preserves Skins Moisture
A pedicure includes a foot soak in warm water and massage with oils and lotions that help preserve the moisture and integrity of your feet. Moisturized feet are less likely to get blisters, cracks or other foot problems. It is also important to keep your cuticles moisturized to prevent nails from growing out with ridges or split ends which can cause the nails to lift out of the nail beds.
Exfoliates the Feet
Exfoliation, or removal of dead skin cells, prevents the cells from accumulating and causing bunions or corns, which can be uncomfortable and painful. The removal of the dead skin on your feet, especially on the heel, encourages new cell growth which creates smoother and more attractive feet.
Promotes Circulation
The most enjoyable part of the salon pedicure is the massage. Massaging helps promotes circulation and helps relieve tension in the calves and feet. Increase in blood circulation can reduce pain and help distribute heat throughout your body.
Relaxes the Body
A good pedicure can be very relaxing. It helps you relieve stress and can be therapeutic, massage therapy eases tension, stiffness and enhances well-being. Feet get little care compared to other parts of your body such as your hands and face.
Make sure to maintain your feet at least once a month to help your feet stay in good condition.
