✨ Don't let winter weather put a chill on your foot health! ✨
As the temperatures drop, it's essential to give your feet the extra care they deserve. Cold, dry air and heavy winter footwear can lead to a variety of issues if not properly managed.
Here are our top tips for happy, healthy feet all season long:
* Moisturise Regularly: Combat dryness and cracked heels by applying a rich foot cream daily, especially after showering.
* Choose the Right Footwear: Opt for warm, waterproof, and breathable boots to protect your feet from the elements. Ensure they fit well to prevent blisters and discomfort.
* Wear Moisture-Wicking Socks: Keep your feet dry and warm with wool or synthetic blend socks that wick away sweat, preventing fungal infections.
* Keep Them Clean & Dry: Wash your feet daily and ensure they are thoroughly dried, especially between the toes.
* keep regular foot care appointments.
Regular trimming and filing of nails can prevent ingrowing toenails and other issues.
"Step up to comfort, go in confidence." With a little attention, your feet will carry you through winter in style and comfort!

🦶✨ Take a Step Towards Healthy Feet! ✨🦶

Our feet carry us through life, yet they often get overlooked in our self-care routines. Here’s why you should give them some extra love:

1. Foundation of Your Body: Healthy feet support your entire body. They help maintain balance and posture, preventing unnecessary strain on other muscles and joints.

2. Prevent Pain and Injury: Regular foot care can prevent conditions like bunions, plantar fasciitis, and other painful ailments. Don’t wait for discomfort to take action!

3. Enhance Mobility:
Keeping your feet in top shape means more freedom to enjoy activities you love. From walking to dancing, healthy feet keep you moving!

4. Hygiene Matters:
Regular washing, moisturising, and nail care not only keep your feet looking good but also prevent infections and unpleasant odours.

5. Mindful Practices: Incorporate foot massages, stretches, and even reflexology into your routine. It’s not just relaxing; it’s beneficial for overall well-being.

Huge shout-out to my good friend and 'festy brother,' Bren, for coming up with the perfect name for my foot business: "Step Up and Go." Originally by Robert Johnson though Brendan’s favourite version is performed by
Brownie McGhee. That little phrase “step up and go” spoken in his fantastic Leeds dialect was the perfect fit. So thank you Brother Bren xx

Athletes foot (tinea pedis) is a fungal infection that thrives in warm, moist environments. It's often found on the feet, especially between the toes. It's contagious and can be picked up from contaminated surfaces like swimming pools.
How to prevent the spread
• Protect your feet: Wear waterproof sandals or flip-flops in public areas like locker rooms and pool decks.
• Practice good foot hygiene: Wash your feet daily with soap and water, and dry them thoroughly, especially between your toes.
• Wear clean socks: Change your socks daily, and avoid reusing them without washing.
• Choose breathable footwear: Wear shoes made of natural materials that allow your feet to breathe.
• Avoid sharing items: Do not share shoes, socks, or towels with other people.
• Wash your hands: Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water after touching an infected area on your foot to prevent spreading it to other parts of your body.

A wonderful Google review xx🙏

I can't praise Julia highly enough. I needed to arrange a nail trimming appointment at home for my elderly Mum at short notice after I was let down for two appointments in a row by my usual podiatrist. I rang at least 5 places, and none of them even bothered to ring me back. But when I found Julia, she responded promptly and was able to fit me in within a couple of days. When she arrived, I was impressed by her warm, friendly and kind manner. She was very patient and chatty with my Mum who has dementia. I was even more impressed by how thorough she was. She examined the condition of my Mum's feet carefully before starting work with tools from her massive 'box of tricks'. My Mum's last podiatrist literally just clipped my Mum's nails and went. But Julia examined between my Mum's toes, used various implements to deal with the lumps and bumps on her feet, 'sandblasted' the hard skin with an electric file, and finally lotioned my Mum's feet and gave her a lovely foot massage that practically had her purring. I want to keep Julia just for my Mum and me, but she deserves to be shared with everyone. Book an appointment with her. You and your feet won't be sorry!

Hello September 🍁🍂

This lady has diabetes and was struggling to manage her thick toenails, one of which was beginning to pierce the skin. This situation presented a significant risk of infection, ulceration, and other serious complications. Fortunately, I was able to prevent these issues, and both of us were very pleased with the outcome x 👣

It uses high-pressure steam to completely destroy bacteria, viruses, and spores — even the stubborn ones.

Why I chose Enbio:
