Why get a “Medical” pedicure?
Your feet will look and feel better overall, as well as feel much more comfortable.
It is much more hygienic to get a medical pedicure rather than a salon pedicure as sterile, surgical instruments are used and thoroughly sterilised between patients. The pedicure is performed by a podiatrist who is trained to recognise the top podiatric diagnoses, which are easily overlooked in a non-medical setting, including fungus, warts, and ingrown toenails. All in all, it’s a more in-depth, personalized experience with a medical eye obsessing over the details.
What happens during a medical pedicure?
During your appointment, our podiatrist, will examine your feet and nails.
He will advise if he has noticed anything unusual that requires further investigation. He will treat the skin and nails and finish with applying essential oils to your feet and nails. The essential oils used are anti-fungal and are a great natural way to improve nail health with no chemical additives. He will provide personalised advice on how to maintain your foot health and recommend when your next treatment should be.
Who would benefit from a medical pedicure?
Medical pedicures are suitable for everyone, especially those who spend a lot of time on their feet, enjoy exercise or sports, or rely on healthy feet for their job.
They are proven to be effective for the elderly, all types of runners, those who enjoy walking and trekking as well as those with underlying medical issues, such as diabetes or poor foot circulation.
We always have time for you
How long is a medical pedicure appointment?
A medical pedicure appointment lasts 45 minutes.
At the end of the appointment, your podiatrist will highlight any areas of concern which will require further investigation. A further appointment may be recommended.
Do you put nail polish on?
No. Our medical pedicure is a treatment which requires you to turn up with fresh, unpolished toenails.
At the end of treatment, our podiatrist will use anti-fungal essential oils which is a natural way to improve nail health. If you would still like nail polish, you can indulge in a cosmetic pedicure separately.
Does the treatment hurt?
No, this treatment in its basic form doesn't hurt.
Our podiatrists are foot specialists and have a gentle touch so there is no reason why this treatment should cause you pain. However, if we do find something during your medical pedicure that is important to treat, then there can be an element of discomfort depending on the required treatment. In any case, the podiatrist will discuss this with you first and you would be fully informed about any discomfort associated with any necessary treatments.

FAQs
A medical pedicure is performed by a degree-educated foot specialist who uses sterilised rather than “sanitised” equipment so it is much more hygienic. A podiatrist is able to review your foot and skin health during the appointment and highlight anything concerning such as skin cancers or joint problems, as well as make your foot & nails look and feel nice. A salon pedicure is simply cosmetic.
How often you require a medical pedicure really depends upon the individual and their foot health. Some of our patients opt to come in every 4-6 weeks, whilst others leave longer between appointments. Generally speaking, patients like to have a medical pedicure every 6-12 weeks to keep their feet feeling fresh and healthy and looking great.
Make sure you are seeing your podiatrist every 6 months as a minimum, for a general check up. However, if you want to come in more often for a medical pedicure to make your feet more manageable and healthy, then every 6-12 weeks is recommended.
Absolutely, good foot health is vital for all. Medical pedicures are to keep your feet healthy and to help identify any problems such as fungal or bacterial infections, ingrown toenails, broken, cracked heels and many more common foot problems – anyone can suffer from these. If any such problems are identified, then additional appointments may be scheduled to address them further.
