Why Routine Foot Care?
Foot health is often a neglected aspect of our overall well-being, yet it plays a crucial role in our daily lives. Maintaining healthy skin and nails makes them less susceptible to issues such as fungal infections, cracked heels, or blisters. Proper foot care can also help prevent biomechanical problems. For instance, if you have a painful callus, you might change the way you walk to alleviate the pressure, which can then cause strain on your muscles and joints.
Routine foot care, performed by a qualified foot specialist, addresses emerging foot concerns while treating the toenails and skin of your feet. In addition to regular nail and callus care, your chiropodist will address any complaints of pain or discomfort, treat nail or skin issues (such as wounds, warts, or fungus), and provide education and advice on proper foot care.
You might benefit from routine foot care if you have:
-
Chronic ingrown toenails
-
Cracked heels
-
Corns or calluses
-
Diabetes
-
Arthritis
-
Difficulty reaching your feet
-
Vision issues
-
Regularly cut yourself when trimming your own nails

Learn More About Routine Foot Care
What is a medical pedicure?
A medical pedicure focuses on healthy feet rather than aesthetics. It is more sanitary than a cosmetic pedicure and is performed using medical-grade instruments and an intense sterilization process. We prioritize safe and hygienic practices, which is why we do not apply nail polish.
What can I expect during my first appointment?
At your first appointment, the chiropodist will perform a full foot assessment. Depending on the reason for your visit and any underlying concerns, the chiropodist will also provide nail care advice, education on preventing complications or recurrence of any issues, and recommendations for follow-up and future maintenance. Most patients require routine nail and callus care approximately every 6-8 weeks; however, the interval between appointments can vary based on each patient’s individual case and may change over the course of treatment. If you or a loved one are considered high risk (such as having foot ulcers), we recommend being seen every 2-4 weeks until the risk is mitigated.
Do I need a referral for foot care services?
No referral is required! You can book your foot care today by contacting us or calling us at 905-853-6466.
Is routine foot care covered by insurance?
Yes, routine foot care is often covered by many private health insurance companies. Please be sure to contact your insurance provider to learn more.
How are treatments performed by a chiropodist?
All treatments by a chiropodist are performed using medical-grade products and a fresh set of sterilized instruments for each patient. The sterilization process is done using an autoclave (hospital-grade steam sterilizer), which effectively removes and kills all microorganisms, including fungi, bacteria, viruses, and spores.
