Nurturing Your Feet: A Journey to Foot Happiness

Connect-Empower: Older Adult Care Partner

You won't believe the fascinating conversation we had with Cindy Jorgensen, the owner of Tending Toes, on our latest podcast episode. It was all about foot care and we learned so much about the importance of taking care of our feet as we age.

Cindy shared her journey into the medical foot care field and how she discovered her passion for helping people with their foot health. We also discussed the difference between a medical pedicurist and a salon pedicurist, and why it's crucial to see a certified medical pedicurist, especially if you have diabetes or other foot issues.

We were blown away by the knowledge Cindy shared about the potential dangers of certain products used in regular salons, like sugar scrubs and sharp-edged foot files. 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! We had some fun discussing Cindy's love for coloring her hair and going on road trips. And can you believe that 70% of Tending Toes' clientele are men? It's true! Cindy has created a comfortable and welcoming environment for everyone, including guys.

So, my friend, if you're curious about foot care and want to learn more about how to keep your feet happy and healthy, you won't want to miss this episode. Trust me, you'll come away with a newfound appreciation for the importance of taking care of your feet. Let's put our best foot forward together!
