Spring Cleaning for Healthy Feet

As foot care professionals, spring is a strategic time to reset fungal management protocols. Closed shoes and moisture accumulation through winter elevate risk for tinea pedis and onychomycosis, conditions that benefit from consistent debridement, barrier repair, and targeted therapeutics. Pedicare’s catalog makes it straightforward to combine in‑clinic modalities with at‑home maintenance to improve outcomes.

Effective antifungal care begins with thinning and contouring dystrophic nails so topicals reach the nail bed and lateral grooves. Pair mechanical debridement with hygienic maintenance between visits. For home hygiene support, consider pHeet Cleansing Foot Wipes, an antifungal/antibacterial wipe that reduces odor and helps improve dry, flaky skin, making it useful for patients between appointments.

For nails that are yellowed, thickened or brittle and prone to fungal infection, Podoexpert Healthy Nail Tincture helps protect, stabilize, and remineralize the nail plate. Ideal in conjunction with therapy and daily patient use!

If you offer photodisinfection in clinic, Pedicare is the exclusive Canadian distributor of ToeFX ClearToe Therapy. This system pairs the ClearToe Therapy Light with single‑use ClearToe Serum to help clear fungal nails safely and painlessly.

For athlete’s foot‑prone patients who may be familiar with peeling, redness, and itching, Podoexpert Dry, Reddened & Itching Skin Foam uses BarrioExpert® LIPO² technology to strengthen the barrier while offering fungus‑targeting action. Suitable for daily maintenance in between professional care!

With structured prep, targeted antifungal support and barrier repair, clinics can lift clearance rates and reduce relapse heading into sandal season, while giving patients clear, evidence‑aligned routines they’ll actually follow.
