Services
Routine Podiatry
Our routine podiatry service addresses common foot conditions including corns, calluses, and ingrowing toenails. Practitioners provide conservative treatments and management advice for fungal infections and verrucae. This essential care helps maintain foot health and prevent complications, particularly for patients with diabetes or circulatory issues.
Shockwave Therapy
Shockwave therapy delivers targeted mechanical waves to stimulate healing in musculoskeletal tissues. This non-invasive treatment effectively reduces chronic foot and heel pain by promoting cellular repair and improving blood flow. Ideal for plantar fasciitis and tendonitis, it offers lasting relief without surgery or prolonged recovery periods.
Nail Surgery
Our nail surgery procedure removes problematic nails under local anaesthetic. Using phenol application to prevent regrowth, we address recurrent ingrowing toenails permanently. This day-case procedure allows immediate mobility with minimal post-operative care, providing long-term solutions for chronic nail conditions affecting daily activities.
Diagnostic Ultrasound
Diagnostic ultrasound creates real-time images of foot and ankle structures to identify tissue damage or inflammation. This advanced imaging technique guides accurate diagnosis of ligament, tendon, and joint conditions. Enables precise treatment planning for musculoskeletal disorders through immediate visual assessment during consultations.
Bespoke Orthoses
Custom-casted orthoses correct biomechanical foot issues through individually tailored insoles. Following musculoskeletal assessment, we create medical-grade devices that improve gait and reduce pain from structural imbalances. These prescription orthotics provide targeted support to alleviate conditions like flat feet and heel spurs effectively.
