Fungal Nail Pedicure: The “Anti-Fungal”

fungal nail pedicure: the anti-fungal

Nail fungus does not cure itself.

But never fear! Located in Edmonton, Alberta, our spa offers a fungal nail pedicure to treat nail fungus, The Anti-Fungal.

A nail fungus can be compared to a parasite: Unless you remove one of the ideal conditions, fungus will continue to thrive. Ideal conditions include humidity, darkness, warm temperature, and nutrients (for example, dirt or dead skin cells).

How can I tell if I have nail fungus?

Firstly, it will cause embarrassing odour. If left untreated long enough it starts to mutate. The fungus starts growing roots under the nails which bury themselves in the nail bed causing it to “pump” itself up. This pumping manifests as thick nails.

First Response: What can I do immediately?

  • Stop sharing socks or shoes.
  • Stop wearing acrylic/nylon material socks as they are more likely to cause feet to sweat.
  • Do not wear the same shoes 2 days in a row, especially closed-toed shoes made from material that builds moisture. 
  • Do not wear poor quality shoes. Some shoes are made of plastic and the paint on the shoes is also plastic which causes sweaty feet and bacteria. 
  • Clean and dry feet properly after bathing.
  • Do not cut nails so short that it breaks the seal.
  • Wear sandals in locker rooms.
