Services
Routine Foot Care
Comprehensive treatment for common foot conditions including calluses, corns, ingrown nails, and fungal infections. Our practitioners provide expert nail cutting, verrucae management, and skin care. Patients receive personalised advice on maintaining foot health between appointments, with particular focus on preventing complications for those with chronic conditions like diabetes.
Minor Surgery
Specialised procedures performed under local anaesthetic for persistent foot problems. Nail surgery options include partial or complete nail removal for ingrown toenails. Verrucae needling treatment stimulates immune response through controlled tissue disruption. These interventions offer long-term solutions for patients seeking relief from chronic foot pain or infections resistant to conservative treatments.
Diabetic Foot Care
Tailored assessment and management of foot health for diabetic patients. Services include annual foot checks, ulcer prevention strategies, and treatment of diabetes-related complications. Our practitioners monitor nerve damage and circulation issues, providing early intervention to prevent serious complications. Regular check-ups help maintain mobility and reduce amputation risks through proactive care.
Musculoskeletal Assessments
Expert evaluation of lower limb function and gait patterns to identify mechanical imbalances. Treatment plans may include custom orthotics, exercise programmes, and footwear advice. Video analysis and digital tracking tools support rehabilitation of sports injuries and chronic pain conditions. This service addresses issues like plantar fasciitis, shin splints, and knee pain originating from foot mechanics.
Orthotics Provision
Custom-made orthotic devices designed to correct biomechanical abnormalities and relieve foot pain. Following comprehensive gait analysis, we create devices that improve alignment, reduce pressure points, and enhance overall foot function. Combined with targeted exercise programmes, orthotics help manage conditions affecting the feet, ankles, knees, hips, and lower back through improved mechanical support.
