A little foot health reminder from a day at Canada’s Wonderland! 🎢

I say this in the clinic all the time: before you walk out the door, think about what your feet are about to do that day.

Are you heading to Canada’s Wonderland? The airport? A trade show? A full day of sightseeing?

Those are the days to wear your good shoes. Maybe even your “ugly” shoes.

I couldn’t help but notice today how many people were walking around in flip-flops, Crocs, and unsupportive footwear while putting in 20,000+ steps. Your feet, knees, hips, and back are going to feel every one of those steps.

When you know you’re going to be on your feet all day, give yourself the best chance of staying comfortable:
✔️ Supportive shoes
✔️ Good socks
✔️ Properly tied footwear
✔️ Leave the fashion shoes for another day

Your feet carry you everywhere. Dress them for the job they’re about to do.

How many steps do you think you put in during a day at Wonderland

Ever wondered what a foot care appointment looks like from our perspective? 👀🦶

One of our amazing patients was kind enough to let me wear a hands-free camera so you could see exactly what I see during treatment.

In this appointment, we tackled everything from nail care to callus reduction, helping make their feet more comfortable, healthy, and easier to manage. While the video is sped up, this is a real glimpse into the detail and precision involved in routine foot care.

It’s not glamorous work… but helping people walk comfortably again is incredibly rewarding.

Would you let us film a POV of your appointment? 😄

Wart needling 👣

Yes… it looks scary. 😅
But the foot is completely numbed, so you don’t feel the procedure at all.

During needling, we intentionally puncture the wart multiple times with a specialized needle. This creates tiny channels that push the wart virus deeper into the skin, helping trigger a much stronger immune response from the body.

Why does that matter?
Because warts are viruses, and sometimes your immune system simply isn’t recognizing them properly. Needling can essentially “wake up” the immune system and encourage the body to finally attack the wart.

“Looks brutal… but this is often what finally gets rid of stubborn warts 👀”

It can work incredibly well for stubborn plantar warts that have failed other treatments. 👣

Some of you know me as Brittney the chiropodist at Footprint… but outside the clinic, I’m also a wife, a mom, a traveller, an artist at heart, and someone who genuinely loves connecting with people. 💙

I graduated from The Michener Institute for Chiropody in 2014 after completing my Kinesiology degree at Wilfrid Laurier University. Since then, this career has taken me on such an incredible journey. I’ve had the chance to travel to over 37 countries around the world — from climbing the pyramids in Egypt, to black water rafting in New Zealand, to skydiving and exploring some truly unforgettable places. Vietnam and Egypt will always hold a special place in my heart.

But as exciting as those adventures were, my favourite place in the entire world is home with my two sweet boys.

In 2018, I opened Footprint Health & Wellness Centre, and watching it grow into what it is today has been one of the proudest accomplishments of my life. What started as a dream has become a place where our team gets to help people in Barrie every single day walk more comfortably, move with confidence, and feel better in their bodies. There’s something incredibly rewarding about a profession where you can make such a real impact on someone’s life.

I truly love what I do. Every day is different, every patient has a story, and foot problems are endlessly unique. It keeps me learning, growing, and smiling every day.

Outside of work, life is busy and full in the best way. My husband and I have been together for 13 years, and between our two active boys, our miniature poodle, and our two baby pet rats… there’s never a dull moment in our house. We love being involved in the South Barrie community, supporting local events, and enjoying everything this city has to offer.

So if you ever see us around town at the park, grabbing coffee, at sports, crafting, or just out enjoying Barrie — please say hi 👋

Thank you to everyone who has supported Footprint over the years and trusted me with your care. It means more than you know.

Hi! I’m Kelly, one of the registered chiropodists here at Footprint Health & Wellness Centre. I’ve been lucky to spend almost 5 years serving the South Barrie community and helping patients feel more comfortable and confident on their feet.

I graduated from The Michener Institute in 2021 after completing my Kinesiology degree at the University of Toronto. Before becoming a chiropodist, I also spent several years working as a chiropody assistant, which helped grow my passion for foot care even more.

Outside of the clinic, I absolutely love to travel, spend time with my husband, and hang out with our fur babies — one dog and two cats who definitely keep life interesting. 🐾

One of the best parts of my job is helping people get back to doing the things they love, whether that means walking comfortably again, staying active, or simply feeling better day to day. I’m so grateful to be part of the Footprint community and look forward to continuing to care for the amazing people in South Barrie!
