Anybody do this? I'm starting a course next week to learn how. Any footcare entrepreneurs out there?
Hello everyone!
I'm new to the list and I wish I had found it years ago! What a good place to network and meet people.
I have my own footcare practice here in Toronto Ontario (Canada). Kudos to the girl in Manitoba who's taking the steps towards her own footcare career.
I'd like to talk to the lady who is selling diabetic footware, I think her name is Guardianangel or something. Please PM me.

Hey, are you still practicing footcare in Toronto? I am just starting out and would love to talk to someone of experience!! Please let me know if you can help.
I specialize in professional foot care along with pedorthics, a therapeutic shoe program and custom made shoes and orthotics.Be happy to discuss the field with those interested.:welcome:
I would love some information on pedortics please.And of course who can do that work. Can a RN doing foot care get a course and start doing this?

Thanks for the great advice. The teacher is actually advising that we buy a dremel rotary tool and dremel burrs, I guess it ages better. There are two medical supply stores in town that carry all the instruments. I've seen the dremels listed on ebay for way cheaper used, so maybe I'll go with that -- haven't decided.
I'm pretty impressed with the course I'm taking so far. I can;t wait to be certified so that my patients can stop going to nasty podiatrists who cut off only the offending parts of the nail and don't even finish the job. Lots of messy work out there.
