👣 2025 in Review!

As the year comes to an end, I’ve been looking back on what 2025 has involved here at Foot Health by Jane — and it’s been about far more than just feet.

📅 Over 1,200 appointments completed
That’s over 12,000 toenails trimmed (yes, I did the maths… no, I didn’t count them individually). And the odd finger nail

🦶 Well in excess of 400 corns removed
Some tiny, some stubborn, all absolutely not missed.

🦠 Most verruca's found on one person? 27
A personal best I hope never gets beaten — by anyone.

🪑 Hundreds of “oh wow, that feels better” moments
Still unbeatable. .

🎁 Christmas kindness overload
Thank you so much for the cards, gifts, and presents — totally unnecessary but very, very appreciated.

😄 Plenty of laughs along the way
Stories, gossip, life advice, and the occasional “you’ll never guess what my neighbour did” — foot care comes with entertainment included.

💙 And some quieter moments too
There's been tears on occasions from both me and clients. There's been advice and wisdom. There's been such touching moments that I'll never forget.

This year, I’ve also goodbye to some lovely clients who have sadly passed. People who trusted me, welcomed me into their homes, and shared little pieces of their lives. I feel incredibly privileged to have met them and to have cared for them — they and their loved ones are remembered with great fondness.

One memory will stay with me forever - asking a very poorly man if he could give me some advice, his knowledge about his diagnosis as I have a family member in a similar situation. I asked him if I could touch the lumps on his head to see what they felt like. He gladly obliged.

He was a cracking guy with a wonderful family (if we skim over the humongous dog that actually turned out to be a gentle giant but I'll never get over the Tortoise situation!) He was kind, caring and dignified and managed to show me compassion even when dealing with his own situation. I'll be forever thankful for that, Martin...

I've also said goodbye to some of my family members this year and thank you all for the kindness you've shown to me and continue to as this family rodeo isn't over yet unfortunately...

👣 This job may be about nails, corns and hard skin but it’s also about trust, dignity, laughter and connection.

Thank you to every client, past, present and future for supporting my little venture

Here’s to stepping into 2026 — one pair of feet at a time

I wish you all a happy and healthy 2026, Jane xx

❄️🦶 Best Socks for Poor Circulation in Winter

Cold weather can make poor circulation even worse — your toes get icy 🥶, your heels crack 😖, and your feet need a tad more tlc than usual 😤. Choosing the right socks is key to staying warm 🔥 and keeping blood flowing ❤️.

What to Look for in Winter Socks for Poor Circulation

Compression 🧦

Graduated compression socks (tighter at the ankle, looser up the leg) keep blood moving even when it’s freezing outside ❄️.

Light-to-medium compression is usually best for everyday winter wear.

Warm, Moisture-Wicking Materials 🌨️

Wool or merino blends are excellent for warmth without overheating 🐑.

Moisture-wicking fabrics help prevent sweaty, cold feet 💦🥶.

Proper Fit 📏

Don’t scrunch or roll them — folds can restrict blood flow 🚫.

Make sure they fit your foot and calf comfortably 👣.

Extra Tips for Winter Comfort ❄️🔥

Layer: A thin compression sock under a warm wool sock can be a game-changer 🧦➕🧦.

Avoid tight shoes that squeeze your toes 👟❌ — let your socks do the warming.

Put socks on first thing in the morning ☀️ before feet cool down.

Winter Safety Tips ⚠️
If you have peripheral arterial disease (PAD) (very poor arterial blood flow), compression socks can be risky - ask your doctor 👨‍⚕️👩‍⚕️ before using compression socks.

Watch for numbness, pain, or colour changes in your toes ⚡🦶 — these are signs the sock may be too tight. Again, consult your doctor

Keep feet dry 💦❌; wet socks + cold = a circulation nightmare 🥶

Make sure you’re measured properly — the wrong size can restrict circulation instead of helping.

Wash compression socks carefully (hand wash or gentle cycle) so they retain their elasticity

And lastly, never, EVER, put your socked or un-socked(!) feet directly on a heat source such as a radiator or hot water bottle. That’s going to cause you some BIG issues. Just don’t do it… Please. I have asked nicely🥰

🌊🦶 DIY Foot Soaks – The Do’s & Don’ts!

✅ The DO’s – Treat Your Feet Right!

💜 Epsom Salts

Soothes aches, reduces swelling and leaves your feet feeling amazing!

Tip: ½–1 cup in a bowl of warm water

🌿 Essential Oils

Peppermint: ❄️ Cooling & revitalizing

Tea Tree: 🌱 Natural antifungal support

Tip: Mix 3–5 drops into a teaspoon of carrier oil (olive/coconut) before adding to your bowl of water. Never pour essential oils straight in - they are highly concentrated and can cause irritation so need to be diluted before!

⏱️ Soak Time: 15–20 mins

Softens skin just enough for gentle exfoliation without over-hydrating. Any longer and it can disrupt your bodies circulation

🧴 Moisturise After Soaking

Pat feet dry, dry in between toes & apply a good foot cream (something with urea in works wonders!) to lock in moisture and prevent cracks.

❌ The DON’Ts – Stay Safe!

🚫 No soaking with deep cuts, wounds, or infections

Soaking can introduce bacteria and worsen infections - don't do it!

🚫 Skip harsh ingredients like vinegar or lemon juice

Acidic soaks can dry and irritate sensitive or cracked skin. Vinegar - excellent for chips but not for feet. And the lemon? Purely for your G&T

🚫 Avoid if you have diabetes or circulation issues

Because nerve damage (Neuropathy) can prevent you from feeling if the water is too hot, it's very easy to accidentally scald your feet

🚫 Don’t dig out corns/calluses after soaking

Soft skin + sharp tools = bleeding! Soaked skin is soft and delicate so don't use sharp tools or resort to excessive scrubbing as this can cause serious trauma and bleeding. If corns or calluses are painful, it means you need a professional Foot Health Practitioner to safely and hygienically debride them - Hi 👋

💆‍♀️ A soak is lovely, but for stubborn calluses or painful corns, professional care is the way to go.

✨ I can safely and painlessly remove hardened skin, corns and callus, leaving your feet soft and smooth. Drop me a message to book in for an appointment!👣

❄️👣 Cold Toes? It Might Be Chilblains! 👣❄️

As the chilly weather sets in, our poor feet can really feel it — and sometimes that leads to something chilblains.

Chilblains are annoying, itchy, red or purple bumps that can show up on your toes, heels or even fingers after being out in the cold. They happen when your skin and blood vessels don’t react well to sudden temperature changes — like stepping in from a frosty morning and putting your feet straight by the fire.

💭 What to look out for:

Itchy, sore, or burning toes

Red or purple patches

Swelling, cracking, or blistering in more severe cases

They can be uncomfortable, but usually clear up in a few weeks. The best thing you can do is keep your feet warm and your circulation moving.

👣 Top Tips to Help Prevent Chilblains:
✅ Keep your feet warm (layer up with thermal socks!)
✅ Move around regularly to boost circulation
✅ Moisturise daily to keep skin soft and healthy

🚫 And here’s what not to do:

Don’t warm your feet too quickly – avoid hot water bottles or heaters directly on your skin!

Don’t scratch or rub the area (it’ll only make things worse!)

Don’t ignore broken skin – it can lead to infection, especially if you have diabetes

If you’re unsure whether it’s chilblains or something else, or if they keep coming back, I’m here to help. Pop me a message to book an appointment – let’s get your feet comfortable and ready for winter again! 💖

I currently have around a 3-week waiting list for appointments — thank you all so much for keeping me so busy! 💕

Something I hear quite often at the end of a visit is:

“I’ll contact you again when my nails have grown.”

While that sounds like a good plan, the problem is… when you’re ready for your next appointment, I might already be fully booked for the next few weeks 😣 — unless there’s a cancellation, I often have to say, “I’m really sorry, but I haven’t got anything available right now.”

✨ To avoid disappointment, the best thing to do is book your next appointment at the end of your current one. This way, you’ll stay on my ‘regulars list’, meaning you’ll always have your next visit sorted👍

👣 Not sure how often to book?
That’s a common question! I have clients I visit every 4, 6, 8, or 10 weeks — it really depends on your individual needs!

For your second visit for regular nail-trimming and general TLC, I usually recommend booking an 8-week appointment, and from there we can assess what interval works best for you.
..but it could be you have pesky corns and callus and would benefit from a 4 weekly appointment! Everyone’s nails (and feet!) are different!

💙👣 Caring Feet, Caring Hearts 👣💙

🌿 A Little Update from Foot Health by Jane 🌿

Sorry for the silence, everyone! What was meant to be a lovely holiday took a turn when I ended up poorly — and it’s lingered since I got home. Thankfully, Dr. Spiros did his bit (though I think he was more worried about his IMMACULATE sandals than my symptoms… I was silently judging his hard skin though 👀🦶).

I’m finally on the mend and will be catching up on all messages over the next day or so. Thanks for your patience — normal service (and soft feet!) will be back soon! 💙

🌴👣 Gone Walkabout! 👣🌴

Just a quick post to say I am now on holiday until October 7th. ✈️I shall reply to any messages then

While I’m away, I’ll be working on perfecting my flip-flop tan lines and giving my own feet a little TLC

In the meantime, keep those feet fabulous, and try not to start any verruca parties without me. 😉

👣 Hardin’s Big Decision! 👣

Yesterday, Hardin watched intently whilst Nanny's feet got a bit of attention and thought long and hard… ''If it’s good enough for Nanny, maybe it’s good enough for me''

But not before he gave me the full once-over, sizing me up like a tiny CEO interviewing a new employee. After a very serious inspection of my tools, he hopped onto the chair like a pro and gave the official Hardin seal of approval. ✅👦✨

Looks like I passed the test!
