Initial Consultation and Treatment 

60 minutes – $95

This appointment is required for all new patients, unless you choose the ingrown toenail only assessment

Here is what you can expect at your first visit.  At FIT Healthcare your foot care nurse will:

• complete a focused medical history
• assess your circulation, nerve function, and mobility
• address skin pathologies (e.g., callus, corns, cracked heels, redness, itchy or dry skin)
• evaluate nail abnormalities (e.g., ingrown, fungal, thickened, or discolored nails)
• provide a nursing diagnosis, and a personalized plan of care tailored to your needs
• educate and advise on how to best care for your feet at home

Your treatment begins with a gentle cleanse of the skin and nails. We ensure proper trimming and filing of the nails, addressing any discomfort or pain you may have. This may include the safe reduction of thickened nails and skin, as well as expert guidance on preventing future complications. Our approach also involves the careful removal of thickened calluses, the reduction of cracked heels, and the alleviation of painful corns, restoring your feet to a healthy, smooth state. We end your experience with a soothing application of warm towels to your feet. Next, we nourish your skin with premium medical-grade lotions and nourishing nail oils, leaving your feet soft, rejuvenated, and pampered. For added luxury, you can choose to enjoy the calming benefits of essential oils.

Healthy, properly trimmed nails and smooth supple skin on your feet reduce risks of infection and can significantly improve the quality of your life!

Additional Treatments 

Swift Therapy for Plantar and Common Warts

At FIT Healthcare we provide Swift Microwave Therapy, a revolutionary, FDA-
approved technology that is a highly effective way to treat common and plantar warts
and resolve these lesions for good. Swift is non-destructive immunotherapy that gives
you the power to defeat warts using your own body’s defenses.

What are the benefits of Swift? 

• 85%+ Efficacy Rate
• Less than 1% recurrence
• Treatment time in minutes
• NO downtime between sessions
• NO bandages, blistering, or wounding
• NO at-home care

How does Swift work? 

Swift attacks the root of the problem. Warts are caused by one of the various strains
of HPV virus, which go undetected by the immune system. This microwave
technology uses heat to awaken the immune system to the presence of HPV, so your
body can now actively fight the virus. Swift is unlike other treatments that only
address the symptom (a wart) versus the root cause (the HPV virus). This is why
Swift ensures there is little to no chance of your wart reappearing after completing
treatment.

Treatment Outlook 

• Average of 3- 4 Swift sessions
• Treatments spaced 4 weeks apart
• Between treatments, the warts will shrink as your immune system works
• Your nurse will evaluate your progress at each appointment
• Follow-up with your nurse 12 weeks after your final treatment

JOBST Medical Compression Therapy 

At FIT, we offer a wide range of venous solutions, more specifically, compression therapy. Compression therapy for legs means wearing special medical compression stockings that come in different lengths and styles, to suit a variety of venous diseases and individual needs. So, why wear compression stockings? Because they help to normalize the blood flow, to close venous valves better again, and ease typical problems such as heavy legs. For this reason, compression stockings may also help to reduce heavy, swollen legs during pregnancy or long days of sitting or standing at work. Compression therapy is also a good solution for people who regularly take long flights or journeys: compression stockings for travel are specially designed for this purpose. JOBST compression garments can be a major relief and provide help for a number of different venous or lymphatic diseases. Regardless of the severity of your condition, JOBST has an expertly designed product to suit your need. What conditions do JOBST compression stocking treat? Spider veins, varicose veins, deep vein thrombosis, lymphedema, foot, ankle, and leg ulcers, chronic venous insufficiency, chronic edema or swelling, lymphatic or venous diseases, lipedema, and much more.
