Pedicure that is wellness and care at the same time

Would you like to work in a nail salon and offer pedicures or foot care? There are various forms of foot care, such as the popular French pedicure and also the wellness variant including massage and special foot care. Do you already have a beauty salon or would you like to open one and still lack the knowledge of foot care? Do you perhaps already have experience in nail care, but only for fingernails, and would you like to gain knowledge in foot care?

 

You can find further training in pedicure at www.Ausbildung-Weiterbildung.ch. Here you can also learn how to give a foot massage and really pamper your customers. You can also give your customers expert advice on problem feet. You can find out more directly from the individual schools at www.Ausbildung-Weiterbildung.ch.

Questions and answers

Pedicure training teaches the following skills:

  • Practical work on the feet
  • Care of the nails and skin on the foot
  • Correct nail shortening and shaping
  • Removing the hard skin
  • Care of pressure points
  • Handling and working with foot care equipment
Je nach Anbieter variieren die vermittelten Inhalte eines Pedicure-Seminars. Im Folgenden sind einige Schwerpunkte aufgelistet, die Sie in der Regel während einer solchen Ausbildung erlernen:
  • Anatomie des Fusses
  • Schneiden, feilen und behandeln von Zehennägeln
  • Hornhautentfernung
  • Nagelfalzreinigung
  • Einführung in die Fussmassage
  • Nagelerkrankungen
  • Lakiertechniken
  • Pflege
  • Hygiene
  • Produkt- und Instrumentenkunde
Nach einer umfangreichen Ausbildung in der Pedicure ist es Ihnen möglich, selbständig zu arbeiten und dies sowohl im Angestelltenverhältnis, als auch freiberuflich. Das bedeutet, dass Sie auch eine eigene Podologie-Praxis aufmachen können, sofern Sie sich sicher fühlen, diese Aufgabe bewältigen zu können. Bedenken sollten Sie, dass neben einer umfassenden Ausbildung auch Erfahrung wichtig sind, um eine professionelle kosmetische Fusspflege anbieten zu können. Arbeiten Sie daher nach Möglichkeiten zuerst einmal in einem Pediküre-Studio und sammeln Sie die notwendigen Erfahrungen, bevor Sie sich selbständig machen.

Cosmetic foot care involves care and decorative measures on the healthy foot by a nail technician. Medical foot care involves preventive, therapeutic and rehabilitative treatment on healthy feet that are at risk of damage. Only a medical chiropodist (podiatrist) with knowledge of medical foot care can take measures on an already damaged foot.

Die Dauer einer Pedicure Ausbildung kann zwischen einigen Tagen bis zu mehreren Monaten variieren, je nach Schule, Vorbildung und gewähltem Kurs. Eine Grundausbildung in kosmetischer Fusspflege dauert bei einer Schule vier Tage verteilt auf zwei aufeinanderfolgende Wochenenden, bei einer anderen etwa 120 Stunden, die individuell nach Ihren Wünschen verteilt werden können. Eine Weiterbildung zu einem bestimmten Spezialgebiet, etwa B/S-Spangen-Technik oder Permanent French Pediküre dauert häufig nur einige Stunden und findet meist an einem Samstag statt, so dass Sie diese auch neben Ihrer Berufstätigkeit besuchen können.

In a foot care training course, you learn the following treatment methods:

  • Footbath
  • Foot scrub
  • Simple foot massage
  • Shorten nails
  • Clean the nail bed
  • Grinding toenails
  • Nail corner care
  • Nail fungus treatment
  • Foot care for deformed toes

The right way to deal with corns and plantar warts is also discussed in the pedicure course.

Eine Ausbildung im Bereich der Pedicure richtet sich in der Regel an keine spezielle Berufsgruppe und hat demzufolge keine oder nur sehr begrenzte Teilnahmevoraussetzungen. Einige Schulen fordern von Ihren Teilnehmern jedoch ein Mindestalter von 18 Jahren. Wer sich in den Bereichen der kosmetischen Fusspflege, des Naildesigns, der Permanent French Pediküre, Wellness Pediküre oder einem anderen Spezialfach weiterbilden möchte, der sollte vor allem Spass am Umgang mit Menschen mitbringen, konzentriert und detailgetreu arbeiten können, hygienisch und sorgsam sein, keine Berührungsängste, auch bei stark deformierten oder ungepflegten Füssen und Nägeln haben, kontaktfreudig und freundlich sein, selbständig arbeiten können, kreativ und kundenorientiert sein.

The learning objectives in a pedicure course are as follows:

  • organize their workplace and work independently
  • Assessing findings as part of foot care and providing simple advice on foot problems
  • have expertise in treatment and quality assurance
  • Demonstrate methodological competence in manual and instrumental work techniques as well as in process-oriented interpretation and action
  • Demonstrate self-competence in independent, client-oriented action as well as discretion and a manner appropriate to the situation
