Physio & Sole Podiatry: Medical Pedicure
Looking for a medical pedicure in Singapore that’s safe, hygienic, and professionally done? At Physio & Sole Clinic, our podiatrists offer medical-grade pedicures designed to improve your foot health — not just your foot appearance.
What is a Medical Pedicure?
A medical pedicure, also known as a medical-grade pedicure or even medi pedi, is a specialised foot care treatment performed by qualified podiatrists in a sterile clinical environment. Unlike a regular pedicure at cosmetic nail salons that primarily focuses on aesthetics, a medical pedicure prioritises the health and functionality of your feet.
Here’s how a medical pedicure goes beyond a regular pedicure:
Expertise: Performed by trained and trusted podiatrists.
Hygiene: Adheres to strict sterilisation protocols to minimise infection risks.
Customisation: Tailored to address specific foot health concerns such as corns, calluses, fungal nails, and ingrown toenails.
How Does a Medical Pedicure Differ From a Regular Pedicure?
Understanding the differences between medical and regular pedicures can help you make an informed decision.
Medical Pedicure | Regular Pedicure | |
Health vs Aesthetics | Prioritises treating and preventing foot health problems. | Primarily enhances the appearance of feet and nails. |
Hygiene and Sterilisation Standards | Uses autoclaved tools and follows medical-grade sterilisation protocols. | May not adhere to the same stringent hygiene standards. |
Addressing Foot Conditions | Treats issues like ingrown toenails, thickened nails, and calluses. | Focuses on superficial treatments like nail shaping and painting. |
If you prioritise your foot health, a medical pedicure is the clear choice.
