Helping People Heal

I’ve been a bartender over ten years and have struggled with a common medical condition career bartenders are often faced with. I’ve had Paronychia on my hands, commonly known as Bar Rot for almost my entire career. This condition is caused by a combination of contact with harsh cleaning substances, slicing citrus fruits, and constant hand washing. I’ve experienced pain and have nearly lost my fingernails multiple times from this infection. It’s a tough issue to fully resolve for bartenders because you can’t get rid of it completely unless you stop working. I’ve tried steroids and antibiotics and tons of OTC skin creams and nothing ever seemed to help. About 6 months ago I found Santa Lucia Salve Company’s Skin Relief product and it’s been a game changer. I’ve used it daily and it truly helps, the infection is kept in check. I experience almost no pain now, no more swelling underneath my nails and no more fear I’m going to lose my nails. I can’t thank you enough for creating this effective product!
