If you are looking for diabetic foot care in Weston-super-Mare, Rechelle Evans from Foot Fitness offers professional, mobile foot care services tailored to the needs of diabetic clients. People with diabetes need to take special care of their feet, as high blood sugar levels can lead to nerve damage and circulation problems
Why is Diabetic Foot Care Important?
For those with diabetes, even minor foot problems can quickly escalate. Nerve damage (neuropathy) can lead to a loss of sensation in the feet, making it harder to notice injuries. Additionally, poor circulation can slow down healing, increasing the risk of infections and ulcers. Without proper care, these conditions can result in serious complications.
How I Can Help
As a registered Foot Health Professional, I am experienced in providing diabetic foot care. My mobile service means I can visit you in the comfort of your home, where I will:
- Assess your feet for any signs of damage, ulcers, or infections
- Provide expert treatment for issues like corns, calluses, and fungal infections
- Cut toenails carefully to avoid damage and reduce the risk of ingrown toenails
- Offer personalised advice on managing your foot health, including proper footwear and daily care routines

Regular Foot Checks for Diabetics
Regular foot checks are crucial for those with diabetes. I will not only treat existing conditions but also help prevent future problems by:
- Monitoring circulation and nerve function in the feet
- Checking for any abnormalities in the skin and nails
- Ensuring that any pressure points are managed to prevent the development of sores or ulcers
The Highest Hygiene Standards
All of Rechelle’s instruments are sterilised in a Prestige Podiclave autoclave, ensuring complete cleanliness and safety during every treatment. Hygiene is especially important when caring for diabetic feet, as the risk of infection is higher.
Specialist Advice
I would advise all diabetics to see if they can get assistance with the NHS podiatry service and I can also help with referrals if necessary. I would recommend making an appointment with your specialist diabetic nurse as well for potential NHS podiatry care. Sirona are the organisation with responsibility in North Somerset.
