Podortho Nursing Foot Care
Podortho® Nursing Foot Care begins with a confidential health questionnaire and a comprehensive physical and visual nursing assessment of the feet and lower limbs. Podortho® Foot Care Specialists are trained in advanced diabetic foot and wound care, as well as the management of various conditions, including ingrown toenails, corns, calluses, thickened or fungal nails, and cracked heels.
The difference between Podortho® Nursing Foot Care and Aesthetic Pedicures.
While both Podortho® Nursing Foot Care and aesthetic pedicures focus on foot care, their purpose, qualifications, and health benefits differ significantly.

Aesthetic Pedicures (Cosmetic Foot Care)

Why Choose Podortho® Nursing Foot Care over aesthetic pedicures?
Podortho® Nursing Foot Care prioritizes health and mobility, preventing complications for those with diabetes, circulatory issues, or chronic foot concerns.
