Here at Footfriend we provide personal foot care services to the highest standards.
This service is not only for people with problem feet, but is also for people who have other problems such as poor eyesight, back trouble or arthritic hands; all of which make it very difficult for people to look after their own feet.
Your problem may be that you simply can’t manage your own foot care, or don’t want to. Here at Footfriend we are able to provide your foot care to a high standard so you don’t have to.
Common Foot care issues:
Nail cutting (& troublesome nail care)
If your nails are too thick or tough, we have the best equipment to manage them for you. After cutting them, we smooth away any sharp edges and thin down any excessively thick nails. For many reasons, nail cutting can be a difficult personal care task to do for yourself. It could be that you have a back problem and therefore can’t reach to them, or maybe reduced eyesight so you can’t see as clearly what you are doing, or you simply are not happy performing this task yourself. Alternatively your nails may be too thick or misshapen for normal implements. Here at Footfriend we can provide this service for you, leaving your nails comfortable and trouble free.
Callus (hard skin) removal
We can safely remove your calluses and explain why you have them. Sometimes this problem can be solved permanently by wearing different footwear, or if correctly dealt with can at least be less troublesome.
Corn removal
We recommend that you never use corn plasters or corn paints for the treatment of corns. This is because those products contain acids which can lead to disastrous consequences, especially if you have diabetes or reduced circulation in your feet.
We can safely remove your corns, usually instantly, and more importantly determine what has caused them. If we can reduce the pressure or friction that has caused your corn, you will experience longer lasting relief from this painful problem.
We also stock a range of gel products which can alleviate the pain from corns.
