All Change- for the Better!
I love running my clinic from my specially purposed home conservatory (28 Langdale Road, Carnforth). Lovely and light, with a separate entrance and accessible ramp, it enables me to provide a caring and professional service which clients find very comfortable and welcoming, as well as maintain a valuable work/life balance.
Slipping Into Summer
Because it’s worked so well, the builders are currently in making it an even better, dedicated, separate clinic space with a permanent roof to keep the heat in (and out!). So for a few weeks all appointments (Mon-Wed) will be held at Nether Kellet Congregational Church Hall, Main Road, Nether Kellet, LA6 1EP. Just 5 minutes’ drive from Carnforth, I chose it for its easy access and parking; a map is on my booking page [link]. I look forward to seeing you there- as we countdown to our smashing new clinic room!
Do Your Feet Deserve a Holiday?
Holiday or staycation, summer is a great time to give your feet some love- and if you’re showing them off in sandals, flip flops, or wriggling bare toes into warm sand, you want twinkletoes to be proud of. Holidays contain a surprising amount of trip hazards for your feet, from unsuitable footwear to spider bites. Hot, sunny weather causes feet to swell, sunburn, sweat and dry out- then add in salty water and stinging sand- so it’s important to stick to good foot hygiene and care routines.
A little thought, a lot more fun
Enjoy raising a glass, but alcohol is actually dehydrating, so make sure you alternate with soft drinks or water (a clearer head can also make the night- and next morning- more fun!) Treat your feet to a gentle warm soak when home, and dry well, it’s amazing how refreshing it feels, too.
Looking back over a year of blogs, from top tips and travel to moving the clinic and renovations, I wonder how I’ve fitted it all in! I’ve loved sharing all my news with you, but with a busy New Year ahead, I’m scaling down these regular blogs for a few months to focus on seeing my lovely clients.
You can get in touch for appointments and queries anytime by calling 07725 300290. You can leave a message and myself or Sue will call you back to secure you an appointment. Also keep an eye on my Facebook, where I’ll still be posting my regular updates, tips and news (like the imminent return to super-smart Carnforth Chiropodist Central!). Remember, you can always leave me a private message on my Facebook.
Have a wonderful festive season and start to 2025; I’ll be busy collecting spring feet updates to share!
All the best, Carol x
