Cracked Heels: Your Summer Foot Care Guide
Summer should be the season of carefree bare feet and beautiful sandals, but for many people, cracked heels become a
I’m Ola Pankiw, a fully qualified, registered foot health practitioner with a clinic in Broadheath. I cure common foot and lower limb problems, much like a chiropodist or podiatrist. I work with private clients, helping them to manage common foot problems and keep their feet healthy and happy. Treatment at Footrespect is so much more than a pedicure.
Are callouses, corns or nail problems causing discomfort and impacting daily life?
Are your feet or lower legs in constant pain, making it difficult to walk?
Is it getting harder to bend down and cut your own toenails?
Your feet are so important, good foot health maintenance is essential to keep problems under control. For some people it’s a challenge to keep feet in tip top condition, especially as you get older. Without professional care and attention, neglected feet can cause discomfort and make it difficult to walk or do your favourite activities.
My job is to make sure the people of Altrincham and surrounding areas have pain-free, comfortable and attractive feet. After a single visit with me, your feet will feel lighter, better and quite possibly a size smaller!
Insoles (orthotics) relieve persistent pain in the feet, ankles, knees or hips, allowing you to live your life more normally. Life enhancing results are common with the correct insoles (orthotics).
A full orthopaedic consultation identifies the root cause of your pain. One session is often all it takes to eliminate pain once and for all. You purchase the recommended insoles (orthotics) online yourself. This method is straightforward, fast and cost-effective.
Get back to being you within a couple of days!
Imagine how great your feet could feel with regular foot care treatments. I offer routine and one-off appointments for toenail cutting, hard skin removal, corn and callous removal, veruccae care, and treatment and prevention of ingrowing and fungal toenails.
Regular foot health maintenance is important for supporting diabetic foot health. It also relieves aching feet, toes and heel pain.
Lots of clients choose to combine their appointment with a foot massage.
Massage is restorative, relaxing and rebalancing. It’s a blissful treatment to soothe painful, aching feet, manage dry or problem skin, and improve circulation in the feet, ankles and lower legs.
It has the same effect as reflexology and also benefits mobility, feeling in the feet (neuropathy), and general energy and wellbeing.
I guarantee you will start to feel the difference straight away.
My clinic is in Broadheath Community Hall, behind the Bramley Farm Pub and close to Waitrose. It’s all on ground level with free parking on site and no waiting list for appointments. I offer daytime, Saturday, and evening appointments. I also do home visits across Altrincham, Bowdon, Hale, Hale Barns, Sale, Timperley and Broadheath for housebound clients.
Whoever you are, whatever your foot condition, you WILL feel better after treatment!
