Hydrotherapy Foot Soak Program
Program Synopsis​
A patient-friendly, safe, effective and comfortable way for patients to manage many clinical issues of the feet. This is a LOW-TO-NO-COST program for many patients (if a co-pay applies, it is often under $7).​
​
Clinical Rationale
-
Foot infections can be treated TOPICALLY placing the medication where it belongs to heal infections or help treat in-grown toenails.
-
Hydrotherapy foot baths ELIMINATE the possibility of dangerous systemic side effects.
-
Drug interactions that are typical of oral medications are of NO CONCERN with this program.
-
For many patients who are overweight or not agile enough to topically apply medications on their feet, the hydrotherapy foot bath is a perfect solution!
-
Patients find the foot bath experience very soothing and comfortable. Typically, two 15-minute foot baths are prescribed daily.
​
