Podiatry is the professional, medical treatment of the feet and nails. It goes well beyond cosmetic pedicures — trained podiatrists diagnose and treat a wide range of foot conditions, from nail disorders and calluses to ingrown nails and fungal infections.
In Austria, podiatry is a regulated profession. Petra is a licensed podiatrist with over ten years of experience treating clients of all ages, including those with diabetes, circulatory conditions, or particularly sensitive feet.
Whether you're dealing with a persistent foot issue or simply want expert care, a podiatry session at Silky Skin leaves your feet genuinely healthy — not just temporarily presentable.
Professional foot care tools & technique
Comprehensive nail trimming and shaping, removal of calluses and hard skin, and a soothing foot massage. Ideal as a regular maintenance treatment.
Everything in the basic treatment, plus deep moisturizing foot mask, cuticle care, and an extended relaxing massage. A complete foot wellness experience.
Specialist treatment for ingrown, curved, or misshapen nails. We use gentle corrective techniques to relieve pain and guide healthy nail regrowth.
Specially adapted treatment for clients with diabetes, poor circulation, or heightened sensitivity. Extra care, extra hygiene standards, adapted techniques.
Dedicated treatment protocol for nail or foot fungus. Includes thorough assessment, targeted care, and guidance on home treatment to support recovery.
Precise removal of stubborn calluses, corns, and pressure points using professional instruments. Immediate relief from discomfort and restored skin smoothness.
Changes in nail texture, color, or thickness can indicate fungal infection or other nail conditions best treated early.
Painful, red, or swollen nail edges — especially on the big toe — should be treated professionally rather than cut at home.
Hard skin that keeps returning despite home care, or causes pain when walking, needs targeted podiatric treatment.
Regular pain in the heel, ball of the foot, or toes may have treatable causes — a podiatrist can assess and advise.
People with diabetes or circulatory conditions should see a podiatrist regularly for preventive care and to avoid complications.
You don't need a specific problem to benefit from podiatry. Regular professional care keeps your feet healthy and comfortable long-term.
We begin with a brief assessment of your feet, nails, and any concerns you'd like to address. For new clients, this also includes a short health questionnaire.
Your feet are cleaned and softened with a warm foot bath or professional preparation products, depending on the treatment.
Using sterile, professional instruments, we carry out the full treatment — nails, hard skin, cuticles, and any specialist care needed. Everything is done with precision and care.
Your feet are finished with nourishing products and we'll give you personalized aftercare advice and recommendations for home care between sessions.
