Assortment of Visco-Gel® Products Deemed “Diabetic Friendly”

(Brewster, NY) January 6, 2010 – Dennis Case, CEO of the PediFix Footcare Company (www.pedifix.com) announced today that an assortment of the firm’s line of proprietary Visco-Gel® footcare products have been designated as ‘diabetic friendly’.

“Following several years of patient testing, our Visco-Gel® Toe Separators, Spreaders, Spacers, Caps, Tubes and Sleeves have all proven safe for use by patients with diabetes” reports Case.  “Foot specialists can be confident that these soft Gel devices contribute to skin health and their use will help patients with diabetes walk in comfort, without the worry of skin breakdown that some conservative management devices can cause”.

“The use of Visco-Gel products provides foot care experts with additional tools for treating their diabetic patients” adds Jon Case, co-owner of PediFix.  “Along with our unique diabetic socks, insoles and other diabetic-safe devices, our customers have new choices for preventing skin ulceration and resulting complications” Case adds.

A fourth-generation, family-owned firm that dates back to 1885, the PediFix Footcare Company offers a range of more than 200 unique foot care, comfort and health products.  GelSmart® was founded by the original developers of podiatric gel materials. “The specialized medical gel formulations our company has been compounding for more than a decade have never been equaled or replicated by others” said Peter Bickell, vice president of marketing.
