First of all we have done a search on here and nothing shows up, however when doing a search on goggle a thread comes up from back in 96?
So a little advice and peoples thoughts would be nice?
We have a friend/potential client who is suffering with type 2 diabetes, that would like a pedicure doing and a full body massage, we have not come across anyone with this yet, we are aware that diabetes is a contra indication, but she really wants this doing.
After speaking to her and saying that she will probably need a doctors note, which she understood but was worried about the extra cost of the doctors note, she did mention before that her doctor had said that foot baths should not be used due to the skin being very sensitive and easily burnt although she says she loves really hot baths.
So with a phone call to BABTAC I was very surprised to hear that they did not require a doctors note and it would be my discretion although the lady on the telephone was very clear to point out that the nails must NOT be cut due to how long it take to heal, and she also mentioned that the full body massage would be fine.
After looking at various sites for information they seem to say that metal instruments should be used instead of orange sticks due to sterilization, even though on here back in 96 in says about only using orange sticks?
the sites also seem to say that a foot bath is ok but paying particular attention to sterilization "obvious", and to be gentle with the massage "even though the client want a firm massage"
So please any thoughts would be very useful
Kind Regards
