Our Services
We offer a wide range of services to cater to your foot care needs, including:
Laser Therapy
Our laser therapy treatments employ low-level laser light to stimulate the body's natural healing process. This non-invasive treatment has been extensively researched and proven to be effective in treating a variety of conditions, including plantar fasciitis, tendonitis, and chronic pain.
Podiatry
Our podiatrists are skilled in diagnosing and treating a wide range of foot conditions, including corns, calluses, ingrown toenails, and verrucas. We use a combination of manual techniques, such as debridement and acid treatment, to address these conditions.
Reflexology
Reflexology is a complementary therapy that involves massaging specific areas on the feet to promote overall well-being. Our qualified reflexologists use a variety of techniques to stimulate these reflex points, promoting relaxation, reducing stress, and improving circulation.
Common Foot Treatments
We often treat the following conditions:
- Callus: Thickened skin on the soles of the feet caused by pressure and friction. We can reduce the callus using a scalpel and provide advice on preventive measures.
- Corns: Thickened skin with a central hard core caused by pressure and friction. Our podiatrists can treat corns by reducing the callus and providing advice on proper footwear and biomechanical assessment.
- Verrucas: Warts on the feet caused by the human papilloma virus (HPV). We offer various treatment options including acid treatment, cryotherapy, dry needling, and laser therapy to clear verrucas.
- Ingrowing Toenails: When the nail cuts into the surrounding skin, causing pain and infection. Our podiatrists can treat ingrowing toenails by removing the nail spike and providing advice on preventive measures.
