She explained how these can actually harm the feet, especially for diabetics. It was eye-opening to realize that not all pedicures are created equal!We also talked about the importance of asking the right questions when researching for a medical pedicurist. Cindy emphasized the need to inquire about their licensing, training, and experience, as well as their knowledge of specific foot conditions. She even shared a helpful resource, the North American School of Pedology, where you can find certified master pedicurists across the United States.But it wasn't all serious talk!
