Â
From Visionary to Trailblazer
Â
Katharin von Gavel's journey in the beauty and wellness industry spans over five decades, a testament to her enduring passion and commitment. As a luminary in the field, she has significantly influenced spa practices and foot care standards worldwide. Katharin's career is a powerful narrative of women's leadership and breaking barriers in male-dominated industries.Â
Â
"My vision for Footlogix wasn't just a business venture, it was a mission to elevate pedicure standards globally."
Â
The Birth of Footlogix
Â
Founded in 2007, Footlogix is the world's first and only Pediceutical® foot care line, addressing the unique and challenging needs within the foot care industry. "We want to increase awareness of the importance of healthy feet due to lifestyle changes and elevate the pedicure industry by providing unique products with revolutionary technologies that give transformational results," Katharin emphasizes. With Dermal Infusion Technology® at its core, Footlogix products have set a new benchmark, empowering professionals in over 70 countries to deliver exceptional care.
Â
Why Foot Health Matters
Â
Foot health often gets sidelined, hidden beneath shoes and forgotten until a problem arises. "People stop at the ankle," Katharin notes, "Unsightly skin and nails, bacterial and viral infections, and even possible amputations are some of the severe consequences of neglect." Footlogix is on a mission to change that narrative by promoting regular foot care and debunking common myths.
Â
Debunking Myths
Â
One of the biggest misconceptions is that heavy, greasy salves and lotions are the best way to care for your feet. "In reality, these products can actually trap moisture and cause more harm than good," Katharin explains. Footlogix products, on the other hand, are designed to penetrate the skin quickly and effectively, delivering results within 24-48 hours.Â
Â
Another myth is that letting water and soap run over your feet in the shower is sufficient. "Proper foot care involves more than just a quick rinse," Katharin asserts. "It's about creating a daily regime that includes skin care and preventative measures."
Â
Practical Tips for Happy Feet
Â
Katharin shares some practical tips for maintaining healthy and attractive feet:
Â
- Regular Foot Care: Make foot care a part of your daily routine. This includes cleansing, exfoliating, and moisturizing.
- Proper Footwear: Wear shoes that fit well and provide adequate support. Avoid wearing the same pair every day to reduce wear and tear.
- Healthy Lifestyle: Your diet and lifestyle significantly impact your foot health. "An unhealthy diet and sedentary lifestyle can lead to obesity, putting more pressure on your feet," Katharin points out.

Some of our client’s favourite products are the Ultimate At Home Foot Care Duo, Exfoliating Seaweed Scrub, & the DD Cream Mousse Formula.
Â
Special Considerations for Everyone
Â
Foot care is crucial for everyone, especially seniors, diabetics, and the immune-compromised. "These groups need to be particularly vigilant about maintaining healthy skin and nails to avoid complications," Katharin advises.
Â
