Services
Routine Podiatry
Comprehensive treatment for corns, hard skin, verrucae, and fungal infections. Expert nail care prevents complications while addressing existing issues. Our practitioners use professional techniques to maintain foot health and mobility.
Custom Orthoses
Prescription orthotic devices treat structural conditions like flat feet and bunions. Through biomechanical assessment, we create tailored solutions that improve posture and alleviate pain from heel to lower back.
Diabetes Foot Checks
Specialist evaluations detect circulation and nerve problems as recommended by Diabetes UK. Regular screening prevents complications through early intervention and patient education about self-care practices.
Nail Surgery
Permanent correction for ingrowing and thickened nails. The package includes procedure, follow-up appointments, and aftercare materials. Minimally invasive techniques ensure rapid recovery with reduced recurrence risk.
Biomechanical Assessment
Advanced evaluation of walking patterns identifies structural causes of pain. Combining physical examination with technology, we develop orthotic therapy plans to address ankle, knee, and lower back issues from improper foot mechanics.
