Chiropody
Professional chiropody services address common foot problems including corns, calluses, ingrown toenails, and fungal infections. Treatments focus on pain relief, skin care, and nail maintenance. Patients receive personalised advice on foot hygiene and footwear selection.
Custom Orthotics
Custom-made orthotics correct biomechanical issues through tailored insoles. Using computerised gait analysis, prescriptions address flat feet, heel pain, and sports injuries. Materials and designs vary for everyday use or specific activities like running.
Nail Surgery
Permanent toenail removal procedures treat recurrent ingrown nails under local anaesthesia. Partial or full nail avulsion prevents regrowth while maintaining foot functionality. Post-operative care includes infection prevention and healing support.
