History
Your practitioner will take a full medical, occupational & lifestyle history if you have never visited the clinic before, or review it if you have. All your information is taken in a private room and stored on our secure database for your privacy & security.
Assessment
Before any treatment, your practitioner will undertake a visual and physical and 3D Footscan© to assess the underlying cause of your condition and create a treatment plan they will follow to achieve the best outcome.
Treatment
Once you and our practitioner are happy with the treatment plan, you will be rehabilitated using the latest technology so we can provide the highest standard of care in-line with evidenced based medicine.
Frequently Asked Questions
What are your treatment fees?
We aim to provide professional, affordable foot care at all times. Our treatment fees therefore reflect the high standard of care we provide.
What is a sports podiatry treatment plan?
The first step to recovery is understanding the cause of your condition which will be explained to you during your assessment.
In many cases we provide a bespoke stretching/strengthening plan to help you rehabilitate at home.
Should you require any further interventions, such as: insoles, shockwave therapy, laser therapy or X-rays and scans, additional costs may apply.
Who will benefit from a sports podiatry appointment?
Anyone who's sport / lifestyle is impacted by a lower limb reoccurring problem or injury would benefit.
For reoccurring problems we can investigate the cause and where possible prevent the reoccurrence.
For injuries we can treat the presenting complaint and issue a rehabilitation program to aid recovery.
