Notes
The comparison includes six podiatry and foot care companies. Prices are from the companies' own price list pages. The content and duration of treatments vary, so the duration of each compared treatment is stated in the note.
Information that was not found on the company's pages is marked as missing, with reasons, and gets zero points from that motive. Prices are not guessed.
About this comparison
We scored 6 foot care and podiatry clinics on 20 metrics. The key question: is the price of treatment shown in euros online and who will treat you, or is the price only revealed by phone or when booking?
When choosing a foot care salon or podiatry clinic, two things often remain unclear before booking: what the treatment costs and who treats you. Some clinics publish the full price list in euros and openly state the practitioner's qualifications, while others reveal the price only on the phone or when booking. The comparison scores these transparency factors so that you can see in advance what you are paying for.
What transparency means in this category
Treatment prices shown publicly in euros (30), appointment can be booked online (16), practitioner's qualification stated (registered podiatrist or foot care specialist) (14), treatments and their content described (12), availability of home visits and surcharge stated (8), business ID (Y-tunnus) or operating company shown (10), independent review source shown (10)
How to read the comparison correctly: Half of the points come from buyer's questions, i.e. things the buyer finds out before deciding. The other half measures how openly the company publishes its prices, terms and contact details. Clear differences in points indicate a genuine difference: one tells you the price immediately, another only after logging in. Close scores should not be read as a ranking order, because every measurement has a margin of variation. The measurement accuracy and the full calculation formula are open in the methodology.
Customer experience is brought into the assessment separately. We also collect customer feedback and customer experiences about companies through separate surveys. The survey results will be added to the overall assessment later.
Who is on the list? Clinics offering foot care and podiatry services to consumers that have their own live site and operate in company form. The pool covers different localities (Naantali, Espoo, Helsinki, Joensuu), because the sector is local small-business activity. The comparison does not tell which clinic is closest to you but how openly each states prices, the practitioner's qualification, booking and home visits before contact.
Podiatrist or foot care practitioner? A podiatrist (jalkaterapeutti, UAS degree) is a healthcare professional licensed by Valvira, whose title is protected by law and who has completed a university of applied sciences degree of about three and a half years. A foot care practitioner (jalkojenhoitaja) is a practitioner with shorter training whose title is not protected. Both can do high-quality work, but we state which of the two is involved at each clinic, because it does not always show in the price.
Why only six? The sector is strongly sole-trader driven: a large share of podiatrists operate as private sole traders whose business ID (Y-tunnus) cannot be found in the Trade Register company search. We do not publish a company whose responsible entity cannot be verified. The business ID (Y-tunnus) of all six has been verified from the Trade Register.
Comparison guide
What to consider in the comparison
A podiatrist (UAS degree) is a healthcare professional licensed by Valvira, and the title is protected by law; the title of foot care practitioner (jalkojenhoitaja) is not protected. The work of either can be of high quality, but it is good to know the difference in advance.
The price may depend on the therapist's level of experience: some clinics openly tier the price, for example into Junior, Specialist and Master levels.
A home visit is a decisive service for many people with limited mobility. Some clinics offer it for a fixed extra fee, others do not mention home visits at all.
For some, treatment prices are only found in a separate online booking service, not on the clinic's own price list page. It is also worth checking the booking calendar.
How Suomen Paras assesses and scores
Every company is measured with the same public formula: half of the points come from buyer's questions and half from basic metrics, which have four pillars: technical quality, transparency, reachability and AI quality score. Ranking cannot be bought, and you can see the origin of each point on the company's profile. Read the full methodology →
Expert tips
Check whether the price list in euros is already online before you book an appointment. If the price is not stated anywhere, ask for it before the visit.
Check which one it is: a registered podiatrist or a foot care specialist. It can affect which ailments the clinic treats.
If you need a home visit, check its availability and any extra charge in advance, as not everyone offers it.
Find out the cancellation terms in advance. Many clinics charge for appointments that are not cancelled.
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between a podiatrist and a foot care practitioner?
A podiatrist (AMK) is a healthcare professional licensed by Valvira who has completed a university of applied sciences degree of about three and a half years; the title is legally protected. A foot care practitioner (jalkojenhoitaja) is a practitioner with shorter training, and the title is not protected.
Why is the price not always shown online?
Some clinics price treatment individually according to the condition of the feet and state the price only at the visit or when booking. At the most transparent clinics, however, the price list is public in euros, and the comparison rewards that.
Can I get a foot treatment at home?
Some clinics make home visits for a fixed additional charge, for example a home visit surcharge added on top of the normal tariff. Not all offer home visits, so confirm availability and price in advance.
