Pedicure and Manicure Safety Tips

Pleasanton, CA (PRWEB) – Podiatrist Colleen Schwartz, D.P.M. of Pleasanton, CA announces creation of Sole Savior’s new SOS kit – a personal pedicure kit designed to prevent salon acquired infection.
“For years, my colleagues and I have suggested bringing your own tools to the nail salon to prevent dangerous infections.

Bacteria, fungus and viruses are transmitted when: 1. Metal tools are not disinfected in a hospital grade solution for the indicated time, 2. Files and buffers are used on multiple clients, AND 3. Pedicure spa chairs are not sanitized appropriately. Always choose a nail salon with posted spa chair cleaning protocol or removable basin liners,” explains Dr. Schwartz.

Full size salon quality tools with nippers, clippers, files, brushes, are not readily available. Knowing what tools to buy, where to buy them, and how to use them is a costly and difficult task. Dr. Schwartz has created an easy, portable, cleanable and economical solution: the Sole Savior SOS kit. The slide out SOS drawer kit includes professional quality toenail clipper, cuticle nipper, cuticle pusher with cleaner curette, nail file block, callus file, orange stick, nail brush, toe separators, Sole Savior’s lavender and tea tree Essential Moisturizing Oil 15ml, and instructions to achieve “tip top toes.”

The kit is available at your podiatrist’s or dermatologist’s office or on-line at www.solesavior.com.
