🧦 Are You Keeping on Top of Your Diabetic Foot Health?

Diabetes can affect your feet in ways that are easy to miss – until a problem develops. That’s why at InStep of Oakham, we offer thorough diabetic foot checks and ongoing care to help you stay safe, mobile, and confident.

Nerve damage, poor circulation, and delayed healing mean even a small cut or blister can lead to serious complications. Regular foot checks help us spot any early changes, reduce your risk, and give you peace of mind.

👣 Our Diabetic Foot Assessments Include:
Sensation testing using monofilament and tuning fork

Circulation checks using Doppler ultrasound

Skin, nail, and footwear assessment

Education on self-care and early warning signs

Treatment and referral if needed

Whether you’re newly diagnosed or have lived with diabetes for years, your feet deserve focused attention and expert care.

Appointments are gentle, respectful, and tailored to your needs.

🦵Heavy, Swollen Legs? It Could Be Lymphoedema or Lipoedema.

Many people experience chronic swelling or discomfort in their legs, ankles, or feet — but don’t realise that it could be related to lymphoedema or lipoedema, two often misunderstood conditions.

At InStep of Oakham, we provide lower limb assessments to help identify early signs of these conditions and support patients with symptom management, education, and onward referral when needed.

🌿 What We Look For:
Persistent swelling in the feet, ankles or lower legs

Skin changes or thickening

Discomfort or heaviness in the legs

Fatty tissue build-up in the lower body (common in women)

One-sided swelling or pitting

💙 How We Help:
Lower limb assessments by trained clinicians

Skin care advice and monitoring

Identifying at-risk areas to prevent complications

Referrals to local lymphoedema services when needed

Supportive care tailored to your mobility and lifestyle

These conditions can have a huge impact on daily comfort, mobility and self-esteem – but with the right guidance, they can be managed.

If you or a loved one is experiencing chronic swelling, don’t ignore it. Let’s talk.

😖 Heel Pain First Thing in the Morning? It Could Be Plantar Fasciitis.

If you feel a sharp, stabbing pain in your heel when you get out of bed or after resting, you’re not alone – it’s one of the most common conditions we see at InStep of Oakham.

Plantar fasciitis is caused by irritation of the thick band of tissue (plantar fascia) that runs along the bottom of your foot. It’s often linked to tight calves, worn footwear, poor foot mechanics, or sudden changes in activity.

At our clinic, we take a full-body approach to relieving heel pain. Treatment is tailored to your needs and may include:

✅ Gait and biomechanical assessment
✅ Footwear advice and insole therapy
✅ Plantar strapping or padding
✅ Manual therapy and stretching advice
✅ Referral for steroid or hyaluronic injections if needed

The good news? Most patients improve dramatically with the right treatment plan.

Don’t let heel pain hold you back — we’re here to help you get moving again, comfortably and confidently.

🦶Sore, Cracked Heels? Here’s How to Help.

Cracked heels are more than just a cosmetic issue – they can be sore, split, and even bleed if left untreated. At InStep of Oakham, we regularly treat dry, callused heels and provide advice that works.

Often caused by pressure, footwear, or underlying skin conditions, the key to managing cracked heels is routine removal of hard skin and consistent moisturising with the right product.

That’s why we recommend (and stock!) Dermatonics Manuka Honey Heel Balm – a rich, non-greasy formula packed with urea and New Zealand Manuka honey. It’s suitable for diabetics, absorbs quickly, and is one of our most-loved aftercare products.

✅ Softens hard skin
✅ Soothes dry or sore heels
✅ Clinically proven & safe for diabetics
✅ Used by many of our patients with great results

Pair this with regular professional foot care and you’ll be walking on smooth, healthy heels in no time.

👣 Struggling with Painful Ingrown Toenails? We Can Help.

At InStep of Oakham, we always aim to treat ingrown and problematic toenails conservatively first — with advice, nail trimming, and footwear guidance where appropriate. But sometimes, when pain becomes persistent or infections keep returning, nail surgery is the most effective and long-lasting solution.

We offer partial and total nail removal under local anaesthetic, providing permanent relief in a clean, professional and friendly setting. Our experienced clinicians ensure the procedure is gentle and stress-free, and we provide full aftercare to support healing and prevent recurrence.

Nail surgery is a quick, minor procedure — but it can make a major difference to your quality of life.

✅ Local anaesthetic
✅ Clean and clinical procedure
✅ Safe and effective for adults and teens
✅ Full aftercare and dressing advice included
✅ Long-term solution for chronic ingrown nails

If you're constantly dealing with red, swollen, painful nails – don’t suffer in silence. We’re here to help you walk in comfort again.
