Services
Routine Podiatry Treatments
Comprehensive management of common foot conditions including nail care, corn and callus removal, verrucae treatment, and athlete's foot management. Our podiatrists provide regular maintenance for ongoing foot health, addressing both cosmetic and medical concerns while maintaining strict hygiene standards.
Custom Orthoses
Prescription insoles tailored to individual biomechanical needs, treating conditions like heel pain, flat feet, bunions, and metatarsalgia. Created using advanced gait analysis technology, these devices improve alignment and reduce pressure points to enhance mobility and comfort during daily activities.
Diabetes Foot Checks
Specialist foot health evaluations recommended by Diabetes UK, including circulation and nerve supply assessments. These comprehensive checks help prevent complications through early detection of potential issues, forming part of both initial consultations and ongoing treatment plans for diabetic patients.
Nail Surgery
Surgical treatments for chronic nail conditions including ingrowing and thickened nails. Packages include procedure, follow-up appointments, and dressing supplies. This permanent solution addresses recurring issues through minor surgical interventions performed under local anaesthesia with comprehensive aftercare support.
Biomechanical Gait Analysis
Advanced movement analysis identifying abnormal foot mechanics causing pain in feet, ankles, knees, hips, or lower back. Using digital technology, we create custom treatment plans combining orthotic therapy and physical interventions to correct alignment issues and improve overall mobility patterns.

I visited back in July and before visiting was very nervous but the lovely lady on reception (my apologies I cant remember her name) made me feel very welcome and Wendy did a brilliant job on my feet, and is also a lovely character too. I will definitely be back and I definitely recommend.

I visited Aimee at St owen's street Podiatry, on first impressions the receptionist on the phone was very helpful in answering any questions I had and arranged an appointment straight away for me. Aimee resolved this for me promptly and I haven't suffered since. The advice she gave me was very helpful too. Thank you for your service.
