Clinical Pedicure
At CureSpa, we provide specialist podiatry-led clinical pedicures in Dublin that go far beyond cosmetic treatments. Our focus is on foot health, comfort and aesthetic results, using medical-grade sterilised equipment and podiatric knowledge to treat and prevent common foot conditions. Every treatment is delivered in a hygienic, clinical setting by fully qualified and registered podiatrists.


What is a Clinical Pedicure?
A clinical pedicure is a medically informed foot treatment designed to improve the overall health, condition and appearance of the feet. Unlike beauty pedicures, clinical pedicures are performed by trained podiatrists who understand the structure, biomechanics and pathology of the feet.
These treatments address calluses, cracked heels, corns, fungal nails, thickened toenails, and other dermatological or nail issues. The process is safe, effective and tailored to the unique needs of each client.
What to Expect During a Clinical Pedicure
Every appointment at CureSpa begins with a thorough consultation, where our podiatrist assesses your feet, nails and skin condition. The treatment is then tailored to your specific concerns and may include the following:
-
Nail trimming and shaping to reduce pressure or correct alignment
-
Cuticle and nail bed care using sterilised tools
-
Removal of corns, calluses and hard skin
-
Fungal nail treatment and topical therapies
-
Cracked heel care with intensive hydration
-
Application of medical-grade moisturisers or emollients
-
Advice on footwear, hygiene, and aftercare
Every treatment is completed with a gentle buffing to restore the natural shine of your nails and skin, leaving your feet feeling revitalised, healthy and visibly improved.
