Services
Diabetic Foot Assessments
Our diabetic foot assessments focus on early detection of foot complications, preventing severe issues through regular check-ups. We evaluate circulation, sensation, and structural health to maintain mobility and reduce ulcer risks. Tailored advice on foot care and footwear ensures patients manage diabetes-related foot challenges effectively.
Orthotics Provision
We prescribe custom orthotics to realign feet and body posture, alleviating pain from misalignment. These insoles address biomechanical issues like flat feet or plantar fasciitis. With over 15 years of expertise, we ensure orthotics provide targeted support, improving gait and reducing strain during daily activities.
Shockwave Therapy
Shockwave therapy delivers targeted energy pulses to stimulate healing in chronic pain areas like plantar fasciitis or Achilles tendonitis. This non-invasive treatment accelerates tissue repair and reduces inflammation, offering a drug-free solution for persistent foot and lower limb pain without surgery.
Children's Foot Assessments
Specialised assessments for children identify developmental foot issues early, ensuring proper growth and mobility. We address concerns like gait abnormalities or sports-related injuries, combining NHS paediatric expertise with playful, child-friendly techniques to promote lifelong foot health and activity.
Nail Surgery
We perform minor nail surgeries under local anaesthesia to resolve ingrown or thickened nails. This procedure alleviates pain and prevents recurrence by removing problematic nail sections. Post-operative care ensures swift recovery, restoring comfort for daily activities like walking or sports.
