What Is a Medical Pedicure?
A medical pedicure is a non-invasive foot treatment performed by a trained clinician or podiatry professional. Unlike beauty salons, My MediPedi uses sterilized medical instruments and advanced hygiene protocols to ensure a safe and clean environment. Medical pedicures focus on the health and function of your feet, rather than just their appearance.
Who Benefits from a Medical Pedicure?
The short answer is—everyone. Whether you’re on your feet all day, an athlete, living with diabetes, or just concerned about foot health, a medical pedicure can help.
However, certain groups benefit the most:
- People with diabetes, who are at risk of foot ulcers or infections.
- Elderly individuals, prone to dry skin and thickened nails.
- Professionals in high-impact jobs, such as retail workers or healthcare staff.
- Anyone with recurring foot issues like corns, calluses, or fungal infections.
What Conditions Can It Treat?
At My MediPedi, we see medical pedicures as a preventive and therapeutic solution. Here are some of the common conditions we treat:
- Ingrown toenails
- Fungal nail infections
- Dry, cracked heels
- Corns and calluses
