Swift Microwave Verruca Treatment
Swift Microwave Technology delivers targeted energy to eradicate stubborn verrucae without freezing or cutting. This clinically proven method stimulates the body's immune response, offering lasting results with minimal discomfort. Ideal for patients seeking a modern alternative to traditional treatments.
Nail Surgery
Permanent or partial nail removal procedures address recurrent ingrown toenails. Performed under local anaesthetic, this treatment provides long-term relief from painful nail conditions. Post-operative care ensures optimal healing and prevention of future complications.
Diabetic Foot Assessment
Comprehensive evaluations identify potential foot complications for diabetic patients. Regular monitoring prevents serious issues through early intervention. Our specialists provide tailored advice on maintaining foot health and circulation.
Corn and Callus Removal
Professional debridement of hardened skin reduces discomfort and prevents pressure-related injuries. Manual techniques safely remove build-ups caused by friction or ill-fitting footwear. Follow-up advice helps prolong treatment effects.
Biomechanical Assessment
Advanced motion analysis identifies structural and functional foot abnormalities. Custom orthotics and corrective exercises address issues causing knee, hip or back pain. This service combines technical precision with practical rehabilitation strategies.
