Cam boot fittings: Commonly known as a ‘moon boot’. Used to aid in the recovery of foot and ankle injuries.
General care: We give your feet all the love and care they need. You may need help with skin conditions such as corns or athletes foot. Toe nail conditions such as ingrowing toenails or thickened nails. Or foot deformities such as flat foot or claw toe. We are experts in keeping you standing on your own two feet!

Prolotherapy: This is a safe and effective treatment for pain and inflammatory conditions. It involves an injection that stimulates an inflammatory response. This helps to deposit new fibres and results in repair and increased strength. Relieves pain and promotes tissue healing.
