General nail care, corn and callous removal.
Where applicable, advice on corn/callous prevention will be discussed as well as education about why the problem is occurring.  This service is also good for those who have difficulty reaching or seeing their feet.
No foot is too difficult and many people feel embarrassed and say theirs are the worst feet.
We can assure you that yours are probably not the  worst feet we have seen however, problem feet are our business and we are here to help manage and improve all types of foot and lower limb issues usually with no or very little discomfort.

In-growing toenail surgery
This is a procedure where a local anaesthetic is applied to numb the toe and the offending portion of the nail is removed.  The nail bed is then sterilized to prevent re-growth of the nail.
Most people can go about there normal activities the following day and there is usually minimal to no pain after the anaesthetic wears off.
We review the toe within 1 week to ensure everything is healing well. Thorough advice is provided to the client to enable a problem free recovery.

Wart treatment - a range of treatments are available.
Strong acid is used when warts are persistent.  This treatment can only be used on healthy adults and is very effective.  Usually only 3 appointments are needed. Other treatments include applying Salicylic acid which is usually painless but quite effective. Other paints and ointments may be chosen depending on what is most appropriate.

Deep dry needling
 
A very effective treatment which de-activates trigger points located in the muscle and tendons in the body. Useful for many complaints such as shin splints, heel pain, arch pain, knee pain due to injury and arthritis, referred pain, stubborn non responsive problems and also to help adjust to foot orthoses.
Also can help with clawing of toes and bunions.
We use an acupunture needle however this is not an acupunture treatment.
Some soreness can be felt for 1-2 days afterward and then the problem usually resolves. The treatment is usually repeated once a week (twice at the most) for a few weeks. Other causitive factores need to be addressed at the same time to prevent relapse.
