About PediStick

We are excited to introduce a novel device, the PediStick, designed by podiatrist to help patients maintain their foot health. Key facts • Dry skin affects a third of UK adults, rising to 9 out of 10 adults over 80 • Dry skin on the feet can cause irritation, pain and infections, and can be risky if you have any underlying medical conditions such as diabetes or rheumatoid arthritis • Applying emollient to the feet can reduce dry skin • Over 8.5 million adults in the UK have osteoarthritis, which can make it difficult to bend and reach their feet Unfortunately, dry skin often goes undiagnosed and isn’t treated effectively, and when it comes to the feet, many people have difficulty reaching them to apply emollient properly. Currently there is no product on the market which can help patients reach their feet with ease to apply cream. No current aids exist in the UK market to help you apply cream if you struggle to do this yourself. Many patients feel embarrassed about asking others for help with this type of personal care. PediStick has been invested to solve this problem, t features a unique pad with a lightweight telescopic handle, assisting patients to apply emollient to their feet. The pad is designed to contour most foot profiles so the end-user can successfully apply cream to the top and bottom of their feet and including the heel area, whether they are sitting or lying down if bed bound.
