To start pedicure/podiatry studies, equipment is necessary. Clippers, files, bandages, it is sometimes easy to get lost in your choice. Podialux, your store specialized in hygiene products for medical pedicure and podiatrist in Belgium, explains which products to buy for your training.
Which podiatrist equipment to choose? The small instrumentation
In the field of pedicure/podiatry, small instrumentation is essential to perform your operations in the best way possible. In this category of equipment, we include the:
- Excavators;
- Gouges;
- Blade holders;
- Files;
- Rasps;
- Milling machines and their bits: among these (also called mills), there are fissure mills for grooves, carbide mills to thin the nail and treat calluses, diamond mills as well as corn treatment mills;
- And many others!
Regarding the milling machine bits, these are not immediately necessary to follow a pedicure/podiatry training and can be purchased later in the year. It is still advisable to get them as soon as possible to avoid organizational problems.
The stainless steel box, an essential part of the podiatrist's equipment
To store your equipment, having a dedicated storage space is important. That's why owning a stainless steel box in which to transport your equipment is more than recommended.
What products do podiatrists use? Compresses and bandages
Although it may make you smile, the compresses and bandages are indeed essential products for a pedicurist/podiatrist. They indeed allow to treat or heal a wound more easily and should not be neglected. It is also important to note that several types of compresses and bandages exist, especially so-called "sterile" ones which are mandatory for high-risk patients such as diabetics.
The importance of medical pedicure equipment
First of all, it is important to note that pedicure and podiatry are two distinct activities. But pedicure also requires very specific equipment. We think in particular of instruments such as clippers, the stainless steel tray and the bottles. So-called consumable products are also important and among these are blades, gloves, masks and disposable aprons as well as shoe covers.
