Hi, My name is Shannon and I am the face behind Healed Sole!

I started my Foot Care journey around 6 years ago. I have been a nurse for 12 years and have experienced a little bit of everything from LTC, community, float nurse at LWDH, Addictions, Mental Health, Teaching, Management, Wound Care and now Foot Care.

I have always known that I have a passion for nursing specialties instead of multitasking with many skills. I was approached by Lou Swancar a Chiropodist in Kenora to get into Foot Care, here my journey started.

As a Foot Care nurse for 6 years I have worked in clinics, northern communities and my own sole proprietorship Healed Sole. I am always learning, taking new courses and have become a Foot Care Nurse educator through Foot Canada Training
