Services
Sports Podiatry
Specialising in sports-related foot and ankle injuries, our podiatrists use biomechanical assessments and gait analysis to create tailored treatment plans. We treat acute and chronic conditions with therapies like shockwave and laser treatment, ensuring safe return to sport. Our team works with athletes from recreational to elite levels.
Orthotic Therapy
We design triplanar orthotics to correct biomechanical imbalances, addressing conditions like plantar fasciitis and shin splints. Using non-weight-bearing casting techniques, our devices control all three planes of motion for comprehensive skeletal support. Follow-up reviews ensure long-term effectiveness.
Paediatrics
Specialised assessments for paediatric foot development, including gait analysis and posture evaluation. We address conditions like toe-walking and Sever's disease, offering orthotic therapy and parental guidance. Our approach combines clinical expertise with child-friendly care.
High Level Laser Therapy
This non-invasive therapy uses concentrated light to accelerate tissue repair and reduce inflammation. Effective for chronic pain and acute injuries, it stimulates cellular regeneration without side effects. Treatments are painless and typically require 3-6 sessions for optimal results.
Podiatric Surgery
Minimally invasive procedures for ingrown toenails and chronic foot pain. Performed under local anaesthetic, our walk-in/walk-out surgeries include phenol cautery for permanent nail correction. Post-operative care ensures rapid recovery with minimal discomfort.
