Erika Allison is a pioneer in the nail care industry and is widely recognized for reshaping the pedicure landscape by introducing the medical pedicure concept in her region and becoming the first to use social media to normalize clients with problematic feet seeking care in a private and safe setting. She showed that they could receive the same luxury experience without the discomfort of a traditional nail salon, which grew into what is now known as the Medical Pedicure Movement.

 

After becoming a licensed nail technician and earning her Certified Medical Nail Technician credential, she specialized in advanced foot care and gained hands on experience while working with podiatrists in a clinical environment.

​

Motivated to bridge beauty and health, Erika opened NuFeet Medical Pedicures® in the Atlanta area and built a thriving foot spa by collaborating with podiatrists and offering specialized care for chronically ill and high risk clients. Her work quickly established her as a trusted leader in truly impactful foot care.

​

As her success grew, nail technicians from around the world sought her guidance. Erika shared her knowledge through social media, mentorship, and community education, becoming a leader for state licensed nail technicians and inspiring them to offer more than traditional nail services to their communities.

​

In 2017, she founded NuFeet Academy, a complete training platform that gives nail technicians the clinical skills, business strategies, and confidence needed to enter the medical pedicure field.

​

Today, Erika continues to lead with purpose and a strong commitment to raising the standard of care within the foot care industry.
