Each treatment plan is tailored to your individual needs, ensuring the best possible outcomes.
General Podiatry
General podiatry focuses on maintaining the health and comfort of your feet through preventative and routine care.
We commonly treat:
- Corns and calluses
- Ingrown toenails
- Thickened or fungal nails
- Cracked heels
- Foot pain and pressure areas
Regular podiatry care can help prevent minor issues from becoming painful or limiting. Our gentle, thorough approach ensures your feet remain healthy and comfortable year-round.
Sports & Biomechanics
Foot and ankle biomechanics play a critical role in how your body moves. Poor alignment or movement patterns can contribute to pain and injury not only in the feet, but also in the knees, hips, and lower back.
Our biomechanical assessments include:
- Gait analysis
- Postural assessment
- Joint range of motion testing
- Muscle strength and flexibility evaluation
Based on your assessment, we may recommend custom orthotics, footwear modifications, or targeted rehabilitation exercises to improve performance and reduce injury risk.
Diabetic Foot Care
People living with diabetes require specialised foot care to prevent complications.
Our diabetic foot assessments focus on:
- Circulation and nerve health
- Skin and nail condition
- Pressure points and ulcer risk
- Footwear assessment
Early detection and regular monitoring are key to preventing serious complications. We work closely with patients to provide education, preventative care, and ongoing support.
Children’s Podiatry
Children’s feet are constantly growing and developing. Early assessment can help identify and address issues before they impact movement or posture.
We assess and manage:
- Flat feet
- In-toeing and out-toeing
- Heel pain (Sever’s disease)
- Toe walking
- Sports-related injuries
Our approach is gentle, engaging, and focused on supporting healthy development.
Shockwave Therapy
Uses high-energy sound waves to treat stubborn foot/heel pain like Plantar Fasciitis, Achilles Tendinitis, and heel spurs by stimulating natural healing, increasing blood flow, breaking down scar tissue, and reducing inflammation making it a non-invasive option for chronic issues unresponsive to other treatments, with sessions typically lasting 10-15 mins and requiring a few weekly sessions for best results.
How it works
- Stimulates Healing: Delivers acoustic (sound) waves deep into injured tissues, prompting the body to release growth factors, increase blood flow, and regenerate cells.
- Breaks Down Issues: Helps break up calcium deposits and scar tissue common in chronic tendon issues.
- Pain Relief: Interrupts pain signals and promotes healing for chronic, stubborn conditions.
Common Conditions Treated
- Plantar Fasciitis: Stabbing heel pain.
- Achilles Tendonitis: Pain and stiffness in the Achilles tendon.
- Heel Spurs & Shin Splints: Bone growths or inflammation in the shin.
- Stress Fractures: Helps accelerate bone healing.
The Treatment Process
- A gel is applied to the skin, and a handheld device sends waves into the affected area.
- Sessions are quick (10-15 mins), often with 3-5 weekly sessions needed.
- You can usually return to daily activities, but resting for 24 hours helps healing.
Who it’s for (and not for)
- Ideal for chronic pain (6+ months) not responding to rest or orthotics.
- Not for: Pregnancy, open wounds, infections, bone tumors, or severe circulation/nerve issues.
After effects
- Temporary soreness or tenderness for a few days, which signals the healing process.
Dry Needling
Dry needling in podiatry is a, safe, minimally invasive technique used to treat musculoskeletal pain in the foot and lower leg by targeting myofascial trigger points with fine, sterile needles. Performed by trained podiatrists, this therapy releases muscle tension, reduces pain, and improves mobility for conditions like plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendinopathy, and shin splints.
Orthotics
Orthotics are custom-made or over-the-counter shoe inserts and braces designed to correct foot, ankle, and lower limb alignment, improve biomechanical function, and reduce pain. They redistribute pressure, support arches, and treat conditions like plantar fasciitis, flat feet, and arthritis, often alleviating discomfort in the knees and back.
Instant Fungal Nail Testing and Treatment
Fungal nail infection, medically known as onychomycosis, is a very common condition that affects people of all ages. In fact, studies show that 1 in 4 people over the age of 65 experience fungal nail problems. Proper diagnosis is essential to ensure the right treatment plan is chosen.
Many patients come to us after trying multiple over the counter or home remedies without success. Fungal nails can become thickened, discoloured, brittle, and difficult to manage if left untreated. Early assessment and professional guidance significantly improve treatment outcomes.
Our instant fungal nail testing allows for accurate and timely diagnosis, helping us recommend the most effective and evidence based treatment for your specific condition.
KeryFlex
KeryFlex is a cosmetic, painless, in-clinic podiatry treatment that uses a flexible, durable resin to restore the appearance of damaged, fungal, or discolored toenails in under 30 minutes. It is non-porous, allows natural nail growth, and lasts 6–8 weeks. It is not a cure for fungus, but rather a temporary, natural-looking covering applied only by trained professionals.
Key Features and Benefits:
Cosmetic Improvement: Transforms unsightly, discolored, or brittle nails into natural-looking, flexible, and durable nails.
Application: Applied in a single visit by a trained podiatrist using a resin, bonding agent, and UV light to harden.
Durability: It is resistant to nail polish, acetone, and detergents.
Safety: Safe for skin, hypoallergenic, and non-porous.
Limitations:
Not a Cure: Does not treat underlying fungal infections or nail diseases.
Professional Only: Must be applied by a certified podiatrist.
Reapplication: Requires maintenance every 6–8 weeks as the natural nail grows.
Common Uses:
- Fungal infections (onychomycosis)
- Nail trauma or damage
- Brittle or split nails
- Discolored nails
Contraindications:
- Peripheral vascular disease
- Peripheral neuropathy
- Active ingrown toenails or infections
- It is ideal for patients wanting to improve the look of their feet for events, sandals, or confidence.
