Verucae treatment
The podiatrist will treat all your verucae with different medicaments, depending on the type
and size of verucas.
Nail Surgery
For patients who have reoccurring ingrown nail/nails conditions that persist. Our podiatrists will numb the toe using local anaesthetic and remove the nail or part of the nail, a chemical will then be applied to stop the nail from regrowing.
Diabetic assessment
For diabetic patients. Our podiatrists perform an assessment to assess the patients lower limb and foot sensations, along with a routine appointment.
Biomechanical assessment
Biomechanical assessments are the analysis of the body's movements when you stand and walk. This may lead to recommendations, such as stretching exercises and/or orthotics (insoles).
Dry Needling
A procedure used to treat verucae that is persistent. Usually performed under local anaesthetic to numb the foot before proceeding. The vercuae will then be punctured with a hypodermic needle. Which pushes the needle from the top layer of skin (epidermis) to a deeper layer of skin (dermis), the body will then recognise the verucae as a foreign body, triggering the bodies immune response, creating antibodies which will eliminate the verucae until completely gone.
Acupuncture
Our podiatrists can help ease your aches and pains by inserting very fine needles at specific points on the body which are considered to be lines of energy (meridians).
