What is a Foot Health Practitioner?

A Foot Health Practitioner is a trained professional who assesses, treats and manages a wide range of common foot conditions, from hard skin and nail care to more complex complaints. It is a people-focused, clinically skilled role that makes a genuine difference to patients’ comfort, mobility and quality of life – and demand for qualified practitioners is growing right across the UK.
