A very good afternoon to all of my fellow foot health fans.

I hope you are all keeping well on this fine spring day! I have often been asked what my feet are like, and who looks after my feet. As I tell those who ask, I do my own feet, and I'm lucky that they serve me well.

In the warmer months, I do wear a small amount of nail varnish and as soon as we approach the colder months, this nail varnish is removed.

So, for those of you who wish to know what my feet are like, I have taken pictures for you of the front and back view (soles).

As you can see, I keep my toenails at a reasonable length (not too long or short), I cream them daily, and reguarly inspect for any changes (for example, corns or calluses, or anything that might be problematic).

I hope I have satisfied your curiosity, and I hope you all have a lovely day.

I look forward to seeing you all again soon, best wishes from the Foot Soother!

Happy Mother's Day to all you mothers who may be reading this! And to those who aren't ... happy Sunday!

As you all may or may not be aware, Foot Soother adheres to strict guidelines which include getting one's PodiaClave serviced yearly, so that my instruments are sanitised correctly for the job in hand.

So, I just wanted you all to see the certificate I was recently given by the lovely Alan (who works for Solent Autoclave Services Limited in Gosport).

Looking ahead, I wish a very happy Easter to all you foot fans out there!

Best wishes from the Foot Soother 😀

Merry Christmas to all of my foot fans, and a very happy 2026! Hoping this year has been good to you!

This post is short and sweet, as Christmas is upon us, and I just wanted to thank all you lovely people out there for your custom over this past year. As I am sure you are aware, it's been a very interesting year, both professionally and personally, and it is very soon to come to a close!

However, it is my pleasure to continue to tend to all of your feet, as to which I will continue!

Looking forward to seeing you all next year for some Foot Soothing!

Best wishes and season's greetings from the Foot Soother

A good afternoon to all you foot fans out there, I hope you are all looking forward to Halloween (not far off now).

Today's subject is going to be about the thickening of toenails. I suspect some of you have wondered why your toenails have thickened as you have matured;! there are many reasons for this, amongst them are: fungal infections, trauma, genetics may play a part also impaired circulation, poor footwear, feet being under constant stress, injuries including stubbing toes, etc to name a few .All of these ,can alter the cells from where the nails grow, resulting in a thickened nailplate.

So, how to deal with this? The best treatment is to consider getting your feet done on a regular basis, where your FHP or POD will thin them down for you, thereby keeping them less bulky and in better shape! Plus, they will notice if there is anything more wrong with them that requires advice or treatment.

I hope you are all keeping well, and I look forward to seeing you all soon.

PS: Your nails will never be as unkempt as this!

A very good afternoon to all of my foot fans,

I hope you are all enjoying this lovely warm spell we are having, long may it last!

Today's post is all about new technology, such as AI. So, as you can see from this picture, it is featuring someone having their feet attended to by a robot!

Hopefully, this will never happen, because as you are all aware, when we come to your home to do your feet, not only are we a real human that you can talk to, we are here to attend to your foot health, notice any problems that may be occuring, and passing these onto your GP for further advice and testing if needed!

In the unfortunate circumstance that robots really did take over routine nail care (and associated foot issues), the service you receive would not be half as satisfactory as it is now! As many of you love to have a good chat (myself included) and discuss any concerns you may have health wise.

As we know, robots are very limited in any of the aforementioned!

Enjoy your weekend and the rest of you summer,
Best wishes from the Foot Soother

Good afternoon to all of you foot fans out there!

Hoping you are all enjoying this fine weather we are having.

As you know, Foot Soother prides itself on being a service that is good value for money. So, last year, we froze the price due to the cost-of-living crisis. Unfortunately, this year, due to all of our rising costs, we have had to raise the price by £2.

The price for a new customer is £40 (all in/NVA included) and £27 thereafter, not bad value considering this is a service that comes to your home!

Just to remind anyone who does not know, we don't just cut toenails.

We are trained to look out for a variety of signs that help to ascertain how good your foot health is. This includes toenail condition, as well as other questions: are they ingrown or overgrown? Is the appearance fungal (if so, how severe)? What is the skin integrity like (does the person have eczema or psoriasis that may need advice)? Is the skin ulcerated? Are the patient's legs OK or red/overheated (these are just a few things that we look out for)? And finally, do they need a referral to their GP?

As you all know, we do this quite often, to get our customers the help they need.

So, I hope you all understand that the price did have to be raised. I hope you all have a lovely Sunday and I look forward to seeing you all again soon!

Happy Sunday to all you foot health followers out there!

As we all know, people are now getting their feet summer ready, so for those of you who are still wearing your shoes, this post is for you!

A few reminders of features of good footwear:

Firstly and most importantly, shoes must be the correct size, shape, and width (measured by a reputable shoe retailer). This helps to avoid an ill-fitting shoe.

Secondly, medial arch support of the shoe helps to reduce strain on the arch of the foot.

Thirdly, deep roomy toebox is important to allow enough space for the toes to move and spread with ease.

Fourth, internal cushioning of a shoe helps to reduce pressure on the feet and provide shock absorption (good for runners).

Sixth, a sole that provides traction so as to avoid slips and trips.

Also, good hardwearing material so as to withstand wear and tear alongside seamless linings so as to avoid rubbing feet which causes leisons and blisters.

Lastly, padded collars, which provide extra cushioning, giving support and strength to the ankle and foot, which helps to reduce pressure, minimise pain, which improves comfort, helping to reduce the incidence of calluses and corns, especially in those who have reoccuring problems.

That it for today's words of wisdom for all of you great people out there who enjoy looking after your feet, we will catch up again soon.

Enjoy the good weather, Foot Soother

Good afternoon to all of my foot followers!

Now that Valentine's Day is over, I hope that you all had a lovely time. I wanted this post to be reminding you all of how important your one true love is: foot health, is! ❤️ From keeping your feet clean and hygenic to making sure all calluses and corns receive help from either yourself or from someone qualifed, should remain on your priority list for 2025! After all, we all know how important your feet are to your overall wellbeing and comfort in walking.

Obviously, if there was anything causing you tremendous discomfort and pain, you will have to consult your podiatrist/doctor for immediate advice.

Hoping this early stage in the year is serving you all well, and I look forward to seeing you all soon.

Best wishes, from the Foot Soother

Good afternoon to you all!

I hope you had a spooktactular Halloween and are keeping well on the run up to Christmas.

Today's post is going to be on a more niche subsect of foot health: cutaneous horns. This condition is essentially the result of an overgrowth of keratin (the protein which makes up nails) on the skin, which results in a lesion, or in other words, a 'horn'. These are considered quite rare, and have a very unique and colourless appearance, which lives up to its namesake.

If you find one of these on your lesser toes, it can be extremely painful to walk on. As FHPs, we would be most likely to refer them to their GP who would refer them on to dermatology as this is the best course of action as some of them may be benign. But, others may be cancerous.

Enjoy the rest of your Sunday,

Best wishes from the Foot Soother!
