Tired of salon pedicures that look good but don't treat the real issues? At Your Podiatry Room, we offer medical pedicures, also known as Medi Pedis, delivered by qualified podiatrists in a sterile, clinical setting. Designed for both aesthetic and health purposes, a medical pedicure is the perfect treatment if you want clean, healthy feet while also addressing common foot conditions and concerns like corns, calluses, cracked heels, ingrown toenails, and fungal infections.

Unlike beauty salons, our approach is clinical, hygienic, and tailored to your unique foot care needs. Whether you're living with diabetes, have recurring nail problems, or simply want a safer and more effective alternative to cosmetic pedicures, a medical pedicure is a smart step toward healthier feet.

What Is a Medical Pedicure?

A medical pedicure is a non-cosmetic foot treatment performed by a trained podiatrist. Unlike traditional pedicures, which focus on the surface appearance of your feet, a medical pedicure goes deeper — treating both the symptoms and underlying causes of foot issues.
Here's what makes a medical pedicure different from a regular pedicure:

• Sterilised instruments and equipment and a clinically clean environment to avoid cross-infection.
• Delivered by medically trained podiatrists in a medical clinic.
• Focus on the treatment of foot problems, not just appearance.
• Perfect for most people, especially those with sensitive or high-risk feet and health conditions like diabetes.

At Your Podiatry Room, our podiatrists carry out each treatment using hospital-grade sterilisation protocols so you can feel confident about your safety and comfort in our clinic.
​

​What's Included in a Medical Pedicure?

Each appointment varies depending on your individual needs. Whether you have a specific foot concern or just want a deep, professional clean, your medical pedicure will be comprehensive and effective. At Your Podiatry Room, your Medi Pedi includes:

Thorough Foot Assessment

Our thorough foot assessments by a trained podiatrist can help determine or diagnose any issues with the skin and nails of your feet, allowing us to create a tailored treatment plan.

Foot Condition Treatment

Our extensive clinical experience allows us to accurately treat a variety of foot conditions. We provide toenail trimming and shaping, including the reduction of ingrown toenails or fungal nails, and discoloured nails. We can perform cracked heel treatments, help dry skin, as well as remove calluses, corns, and hard skin.

Recommendations for Ongoing Foot Care

Unlike regular pedicures, our medical pedicure treatments delve deeper, focusing on the health and wellbeing of your feet. Visiting our podiatrists can give your feet the treatment they need and allow you the opportunity to address any niggles before they develop into more problematic issues. We provide recommendations and treatment plans for any issues that may be ongoing.

Who Should Consider a Medical Pedicure?

While most people can benefit from a medical pedicure, it's especially helpful for people who:

• Are living with diabetes, arthritis, or poor circulation.
  
• Have fungal nail infections, ingrown toenails, or thickened toenails.
  
• Suffer from corns, calluses, or cracked heels.
  
• Have experienced infections or complications from nail salon pedicures.
  
• Prefer a clinical and hygienic approach to foot care.
  
• Are immunocompromised or have health conditions that make you a high infection risk.
  
• Have difficulty maintaining their own foot, skin, and nail care due to any reason.
  

If you've had a negative experience at a beauty salon or are concerned about hygiene and safety, a medical pedicure is a far superior choice.

Our Clinical Approach to Hygiene and Safety

At Your Podiatry Room, your health is our highest priority. That's why we follow strict protocols:

No Cuticle Cutting

Cutting or removing your cuticles creates a portal of entry for bacteria. This can very easily lead to infection of the cuticle, nail, and its surrounding area. For this reason, any dead skin can be reduced to a safe degree, but complete removal or cutting back of the cuticle is not something we advise or practice at Your Podiatry Room.

No Foot Bathing or Soaking

Foot baths and soaking of the feet might be something performed at nail salons, but it is not something we do in our podiatrist clinic. We avoid this to prevent the unhygienic spread of infection and ensure our infection control procedures.

No Nail Polish Applications

If your private health insurance includes podiatry coverage, you may be eligible to make a claim and receive benefits or a rebate. Please check with your health insurance provider for details.

Autoclaved Tools

All tools are sterilised under high heat and pressure to ensure absolutely no chance of speaking fungal or viral infections through our instruments or equipment.

Sanitised Clinic Setting

Our team of podiatrists and health professionals ensure that all clinic rooms and surfaces are sanitised and cleaned between patients to ensure cleanliness. Our clinical standards ensure a clean, risk-free environment, so you can relax knowing your feet are in expert hands.

A typical Medi Pedi session lasts between 30 to 45 minutes, depending on the condition of your feet, nails, and skin and the level of care required.

Can I claim this treatment on my health insurance?

If your private health insurance includes podiatry coverage, you may be eligible to make a claim and receive benefits or a rebate. Please check with your health insurance provider for details.

How often should I get a medical pedicure?

It depends on your needs, but many clients return every 6–8 weeks to maintain optimal foot health.
