Treatment components and process
Therapeutic Pedi-Care is a clinical foot-care session centered on careful nail and cuticle care, gentle exfoliation, and targeted callus management. Technicians focus on hygiene and comfort for clients who require medical-level maintenance, applying methods intended to preserve skin integrity and support routine foot health without cosmetic-only procedures.
An initial assessment determines the appropriate plan: how much callus management is safe, the scope of nail trimming, and which circulation-stimulating techniques are appropriate. These decisions balance effectiveness with the need to avoid irritation or compromise to fragile skin, and the technician documents the condition that shapes each choice.
Safety for diabetic clients
For clients with diabetes or circulatory concerns, the session emphasizes gentle technique and close inspection of skin and nail condition. Technicians ask about neuropathy, medications, recent wounds, and mobility limits so care can be adapted. Communication about medical history is essential to reduce risk and guide conservative decisions during treatment.
This service may qualify for HSA/FSA reimbursement when prescribed by a licensed medical provider and supported by a Letter of Medical Necessity. Clients should confirm coverage with their insurer, bring any required documentation, and discuss prescriptions or medical notes with staff before the appointment.
Scheduling, location, and access
Studio Chique is located in the Langdon neighborhood of Washington, conveniently accessed from the Rhode Island Ave–Brentwood Metro and serving Brookland, College Park, Hyattsville, and nearby communities. Flexible early-morning and evening booking options help commuters, parents, and shift workers fit clinical foot care into busy schedules around Metro connections.
Sessions run 60 minutes and are priced at $179, allowing time for assessment, cleaning, callus management, and circulation-focused care. If mobility or home-care limitations affect maintenance, technicians will discuss follow-up frequency and practical plans that account for local climate factors like humid summers and seasonal changes in skin and callus behavior.
