Services
Podiatry
Our podiatry services address biomechanical issues, sports injuries, and systemic condition effects on feet. We provide gait analysis, musculoskeletal assessments, and conservative treatments for conditions like plantar fasciitis and Achilles tendonitis. The service combines clinical expertise with patient education to improve mobility and prevent recurrence through evidence-based interventions.
Orthotics
We offer comprehensive orthotic solutions from over-the-counter insoles to custom-made devices. Our thermoplastic orthotics correct biomechanical imbalances while condition-specific options target plantar fasciitis and degenerative joint disease. Temporary modifications allow cost-effective trial fittings before permanent prescriptions, ensuring optimal pressure distribution and gait improvement.
Chiropody
Specialist treatment for common foot problems including corns, calluses, ingrowing toenails, and fungal infections. Our practitioners perform safe nail surgery and verrucae treatments using modern techniques. The service focuses on pain relief and prevention through regular maintenance, particularly benefiting patients with diabetes and arthritis.
Osteopathy
Registered osteopaths treat musculoskeletal conditions affecting posture, joints, and mobility. Specialising in sports injuries and chronic pain management, the service employs manual therapy techniques to address back pain, neck issues, and sports-related injuries. Treatment plans incorporate rehabilitation exercises and lifestyle advice for long-term recovery.
Sports Massage
Targeted soft tissue therapy for sports injuries and muscular tension. The service aids recovery from strains, improves flexibility, and prevents injuries through deep tissue techniques.
