/24-7PressRelease/ - TERRYVILLE, CT, August 24, 2008 - Pedicures are supposed to be relaxing for the mind and body. They usually consist of a nice warm foot bath where your feet are soaked and rubbed. You can sit back in your chair and unwind and wash away the hectic day you just had. The end result of the pedicure being beautifully groomed feet that will make you proud. This is not the case for diabetics, where a pedicure can be a very stressful occurrence. Getting a routine pedicure can open up a world of the possible infections and diseases for diabetics. However, now there is a product called Pediclear that will help alleviate the fears and concerns associated with this procedure for diabetic patients whose immune system may be compromised due to their disease.
By using Pediclear at the start of a pedicure, you are disinfecting the water in the foot spa basin. This protects you from infection by preventing potentially harmful contamination from ever touching your body. Pediclear works fast; killing 99.99% of all harmful contamination that causes infections in the foot and leg in just 30 seconds. Pediclear is designed to provide disinfection through the entire pedicure service. Pediclear is the first EPA registered Disinfectant approved specifically for use in foot spas.
According to Alan L. Bass, DPM, FACFAOM, a board certified podiatrist practicing in Manalapan, New Jersey, "The reason that Pediclear is important is from an infection control standpoint. Diabetics are in a different category than your average patient. With increases and decreases in blood glucose (sugar), a diabetic patients' immune system can become compromised. In my practice I stress prevention to diabetic patients. While your average patient is more likely to be able to fight an acquired skin infection, a diabetic will have a more difficult time in fighting infection, therefore prevention is the key."
Whether you are a diabetic or not, get peace of mind the next time you get a pedicure with Pediclear: One simple step - two little grams.
