Step Into Wellness Footcare has been nominated!!!

When I opened the doors to my footcare clinic in April 2025, I honestly wasn’t sure what I was getting myself into. Starting a business on my own was something I never imagined I could do.

But then, my hometown showed up! 🥹❤️

To every client who has trusted me with their care, every community member who has referred a friend or family member, shared a post, recommended my services, given me feedback, encouraged me, or simply cheered me on — **thank you.**

You have helped turn something I was nervous to begin into something I am incredibly proud to have built right here in the community I call home.

And now, my little business has been nominated for the **Canadian Choice Award**! 🏆

If you've experienced my footcare services, referred someone to me, or simply believe in supporting small, local businesses, I would be so incredibly grateful for your encouraging nomination/ vote!

👉 Please take a moment to click on the link below to add your (anonymous) nomination and help put Vankleek Hill's "Step Into Wellness Footcare" on the map!

Thank you for believing in me, supporting local, and helping me grow this dream — I truly couldn’t have done it without you. ❤️

Canadian Choice Award recognizes the best businesses in Canada of all sizes from SMB to mid-size enterprises. Give the recognition!

🦶 Give your feet a few minutes of care every day! Gentle stretches, toe curls, ankle circles, and foot massage can help relieve pain, improve flexibility, and strengthen the muscles that support your feet. These exercises may ease common discomforts like plantar fasciitis and tired feet, but persistent or severe pain should be evaluated by a healthcare professional. 💚👣

Clinic will be closed July 8-20th inclusive .

Any messages, emails, texts or calls will be returned in order they were received upon my return.

📢 **Client Update**

At this time, intake for new footcare clients is temporarily closed for both in-clinic and mobile services.

I will be resuming new client bookings as of **August 25**, 2026.

Current client appointments that are scheduled beyond this week (July 6) will be maintained ( I will contact you if you are booked and anything needs to be rescheduled ).

This pause is due to personal matters that require my immediate attention, and I appreciate your understanding and patience during this time.

Thank you for your continued support as I take the time required to navigate these matters. 💛

To my valued clients 🤍

Due to some urgent and private matters, I need to cancel appointments on short notice & the clinic will be closed this week (June 15-19)

This is not something I take lightly, and I sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. I have reached out already to those this may have impacted & have done my best to reschedule you in a timely manner.

I truly respect your time and appreciate your understanding

I appreciate the loyalty and support—it truly means more than I can express.

The best way to reach me is by text or email in the upcoming week - I may not be as prompt to reply but I promise you I will get back to you.

Thank you so much for your patience and kindness 🫶

Kind regards ,

Wool Toe Spacer & Interdigital Wool Care Instructions

Wool may be recommended between the toes to help reduce friction, absorb moisture, improve comfort, and support skin protection for conditions such as:

* Interdigital corns (corns between the toes)
* Toe rubbing or pressure areas
* Moisture buildup between toes
* Mild toe overlap or irritation

Wool is naturally soft, breathable, moisture-wicking, and anti-microbial, making it an excellent option for helping keep the spaces between the toes drier and more comfortable.

Benefits of Wool Between the Toes

* Helps reduce rubbing and pressure
* Absorbs excess moisture
* Allows airflow between toes
* Naturally anti-microbial
* Can help reduce skin softening (maceration) caused by trapped moisture
* Comfortable and moldable to the shape of the toes

Daily Care

* Remove and inspect the wool regularly.
* Check the skin daily for redness, irritation, drainage, or worsening moisture.
* Ensure the area is clean and thoroughly dry before reapplying wool.
* Replace wool if it becomes heavily soiled, compressed, or damp.
You may wash the wool with soap and water, not overly vigorously, then let air dry on a drying rack and you may use when fully dry to do not use wet wool

📣 NOTICE TO ALL 📣
*****Effectively immediately***there will be a surcharge / flat rate of $10 per mobile visit (per residence) that is outside of the immediate Vankleek Hill area (9+km or more)

Meaning- if you are a couple in the same residence, you’d share the $10

Gas prices have gone crazy & many businesses (not just footcare!!!) are choosing to add this surcharge to cover costs.

I apologize for any inconvenience!

Should you wish to book an in-clinic appointment instead of at home, I would be happy to accommodate!
Thank you!
