🎉 A Huge Congratulations to April! 🎉

We are absolutely thrilled to celebrate April, who has officially completed her Footcare Hygienist Certificate! 🙌💙

Over the weekend, our team travelled to beautiful Tatum Park just outside Wellington for the Resonance & Friends Conference — and it was here that April was proudly awarded her certificate.

April is an integral part of Feet First Podiatry, leading the way in Footcare Hygienist services. From her exceptional Just Toenails care to her expertise in nail bracing and nail reconstruction, she brings skill, compassion, and genuine dedication to every patient she sees.

We are incredibly proud of her achievement and grateful to have her as part of the Feet First family. 🌟

Please join us in congratulating April on this fantastic milestone! 👣💐

Where do fungal nail infections come from?
Spoiler: You don’t have to be barefoot in the jungle to get them.
💦 Shared showers
🧼 Nail salons
🏊 Public pools
🧖 Saunas and gyms
👟 Even your own shoes if they stay damp!
They spread through direct contact or fungal spores in the air—so protecting your feet in public areas is a must. 👣
Pro tip: Wash your socks hot, and don’t skip drying between the toes!
