Tradition meets modern foot care

Since 1933, per piedi has been synonymous with professional footcare in Basel. What started with a single treatment booth became a success story. Today, we offer state-of-the-art podiatry in Basel's city centre. Tradition, innovation, and experience ensure the health and wellbeing of your feet.

1984

The origins of per piedi date back to the 1930s:

  • On June 9 1933, the first treatment booth for the disease was opened in what was then the Falken shoe store on Freie Strasse in Basel.
1984
  • In 1951, due to high demand, there was an initial relocation to Gerbergasse with initially three cabins in the Gerbe shoe shop. By 1953, there were already six cabins there.
  • In 1964, the per piedi moved again, back to Freie Strasse, this time in the Pfauen. It had room for nine cabins.
1990er
  • In 1983, the relocation to Weisse Gasse 15 finally took place, featuring 14 cabins. In 1984, the shoe shop Per Piedi was added on the ground floor.
  • In 2022, the premises became too cramped once again, and since then the podiatry clinic, now with 18 cabins, has been located over two floors in the corner building at Freie Strasse 38/Pfluggässlein. The shoe store specializing in healthy shoes has been integrated into the Pfauen.
