Our Story
Welcome to Restore Medical Foot Spa.
We are a local business committed to the health and beauty of our community and making a real difference in the lives and mobility of our clients. We are proud to bring these unique and important services to Northern Michigan and are committed to providing exceptional care that helps our neighbors thrive.
How It All Began
Restore started with a simple but important vision: to offer reliable, high-quality, medical-grade foot care to the people of our community. We are driven by a desire to fill a gap in healthcare for these types of services and to provide local residents with a trustworthy, sterile and safe place to help manage their unique foot care needs.
Our Mission
We are committed to building strong, lasting relationships with our clients and being a service people can rely on and recommend to friends and family. We believe great service goes beyond just delivering specific results — it’s about treating every client like a neighbor and caring for the whole person. We aim to deliver top-notch, safe, and individualized foot care that will help clients be as healthy and mobile as possible. We are here to serve our neighbors, provide solutions that improve our clients' everyday life, and foster a sense of trust and support.
Why We’re Different
What sets Restore apart from other pedicure services in the area is our emphasis on safety, hygiene, and clinical-level care. A medical pedicure is a version of a salon pedicure but it is based on a medical model of care focused on technician training, infection prevention and our clients’ overall health. We don’t aim to just offer a one-time service. We aim to offer a solution and peace of mind that comes with knowing you’re working with a trained professional that cares about and understands your specific issue and underlying health conditions.
We also believe in transparency and honesty. That means no hidden fees and no dealing with the uncertainty of insurance coverage. We are a straightforward fee-for-service business you can trust and rely on. Our team is passionate about making a difference in the lives of our clients, and we believe in doing things right every time.
Giving Back
As a locally-owned business, we’re invested in the well-being of our community. We aim to partner with local organizations, participate in community events, and support charitable causes that make a positive impact on the lives of those around us. For us, success isn’t just about growth — it’s about making our community a better place for everyone.
Join Us on Our Journey
Your feet are the foundation of your entire body. They play a crucial role in mobility, balance, and overall health. Strong, healthy feet are essential not only for walking, running, and standing but for maintaining independence and preventing pain or injury in other parts of the body. Without proper care, your feet can lead to serious health issues. It’s time to prioritize your foot health and give them the attention they deserve. We look forward to giving you the high quality care your feet deserve. If you have any questions or want to learn more about our services, don’t hesitate to reach out. We’d love to hear from you!

Chris Kennedy, DPM, Owner
Dr. Kennedy began serving the local communities in Petoskey and throughout Northern Michigan in 2020 and quickly recognized a need for more readily available, safe and individualized general foot and nail care - outside of the medical office.
He and his wife sought to bring their vision of a sterile, personalized pedicure service to life for years before finally finding the right community and professionals to launch Restore.
Mary Zingler, Licensed Nail Technician, CNA
Mary started her nail care career in 2007 with her nail technician license. She worked at various salons throughout southeast Michigan, gaining invaluable experience and starting to specialize in foot and nail care. In 2015, she started a family and began her own mobile, in-home, nail care business for the disabled, elderly, and bedridden. Wanting to provide more clinical care for her clients, Mary earned her nursing assistant certification in 2023 and is now enrolled in nursing school. Her plan is to become a fully licensed foot health nurse.
Mary has a passion for providing wellness pedicures for those in need. She has experience in working with complicated foot care issues, as well as general pedicure care and beautification. Mary is excited to become a part of Restore Medical Foot Spa and to offer her services to this community.
