Our feet do a fantastic job, carrying us around all the time. But the wear and tear caused requires attention to avoid complications further down the line. I can trim and file toe nails that the client cannot reach themselves for any reason, for thickened nails I can reduce the thickness and use topical medicaments for treatable issues such as fungal nails. Many people have areas of hard skin, or
callus on their feet. This can cause discomfort and even change the way that they walk as a callus can cause discomfort each time body weight is put through it. Hard corns cause considerable discomfort and even pain, but this is easily treated by a Foot Health Practitioner, with swift results. Verrucas are a common problem, there are different medicaments available, and it can be a matter of trial and error to find the most effective one. Appointments include a brief discussion of medical history, to ensure it is safe and appropriate to proceed with the treatment. All instruments have been sterilised to industry standard to prevent cross infection, and other items are single use. Follow-up advice is always given and documented, and a plan of care where needed.
