Services
Podiatry
Our podiatry services address lower limb pathologies, focusing on toenails, soft tissues, and musculoskeletal health. We treat chronic conditions like diabetes and rheumatoid arthritis, preventing complications through tailored interventions. By combining clinical expertise with patient education, we enhance mobility and maintain foot integrity for long-term wellness.
Chiropody
Specialised chiropody treatments manage common and complex foot problems, including nail care and skin conditions. We provide preventative care for at-risk patients, reducing fall risks associated with foot impairments. Our approach integrates manual techniques with lifestyle advice to improve overall foot function and comfort.
Biomechanics
Biomechanical assessments evaluate walking patterns and lower limb function to identify abnormalities. We use advanced diagnostic tools to create custom treatment plans, including orthotics, that correct alignment issues and alleviate pain. This service helps patients regain stability and prevent further musculoskeletal damage.
Orthotic Prescription
Custom orthotic devices are designed to correct foot posture and distribute pressure evenly. We prescribe tailored insoles for conditions like flat feet and plantar fasciitis, enhancing comfort during daily activities. These devices are crafted using precise measurements to ensure optimal support and long-term effectiveness.
Nail Surgery
Nail surgery procedures address ingrown toenails and other nail pathologies through minor surgical interventions. We perform these treatments under local anaesthesia, ensuring patient comfort while preventing recurrence. Post-operative care includes hygiene guidance to promote healing and maintain foot health.
