Hi 👋🏼 I’m Colleen

I am the Foot Nurse behind Northern Health Advanced Foot Care Inc. I created this business out of a need for professional medical, local foot care. As we creep up to our 2nd anniversary 🥳, I thought it would be a good idea to update everyone on who we are and what we do! There are MUCH more of you then when we opened back in early 2024! Thank you for following along and your continued support 👏🏼

Foot nurses are a specialty group of nurses that have taken additional training and received advanced authorization from a governing body to provide foot care services. You have to be a nurse to do what we do. Myself, I am an LPN with almost 10 years experience working in a variety of focuses: Emergency, Acute Care, Restorative Care, Public Health, and my favourite area, Home Care. For the past 2 years I have been working primarily in private practice foot care, and I’m HOOKED. You’d think I like feet? When really, I just love being able to help people identify risks for their lower limbs to prevent negative outcomes later on down the road. Feet are so important, and yet so overlooked. But, as the old saying goes, “Take care of your feet… or they’ll take care of you”.

I also hold post-diploma certificates in Wound Management from Grant MacEwan University, and a micro-credential from the University of Alberta in Lymphedema + Chronic Edema. These have both been very helpful, as they intertwine with lower limb health and foot care. Learning is a lifelong process as a nurse, and that’s why I’m always looking for new learning opportunities and collaborations.

To suit our local foot care needs, I hold clinic hours by appointment every Wednesday, Thursday and the occasional Saturday. Monday and Tuesday mornings I’m out in our community providing foot care to those who are homebound. Friday and Saturday I spend my time at our long-term care facilities. And, Tuesday’s 12-3 you can pop in to our shop to pick up supplies, ask questions, or get help with making an appointment: NHAFC.ca

✨ NEW! ✨ DRY BRUSHES

Dry brushing is an ancient Ayurvedic practice that uses a stiff-bristled brush on dry skin to promote exfoliation stimulate blood circulation, and encourage lymphatic drainage.

Exfoliation: The primary benefit is the physical removal of dead skin cells, which results in smoother, brighter skin and helps moisturizers absorb better.

Circulation: The mechanical action of brushing temporarily increases blood flow to the skin’s surface, contributing to a healthy glow.

Lymphatic Drainage: The lymphatic system helps remove waste products and maintain fluid balance. the manual stimulation from dry brushing is thought to encourage the movement of stagnant lymph fluid toward the lymph nodes for filtration, helping with puffiness and bloating.

Come check them out, every Tuesday 12-3pm
📍Business Plaza 2, 4723 - 50th Ave, Whitecourt
