Services
Orthotics
Our custom orthotics are designed using advanced gait analysis technology to address individual foot mechanics. These prescription devices correct biomechanical issues, alleviate pain, and improve mobility for various footwear types. Each pair is crafted by skilled orthotists to ensure optimal support and comfort.
Ingrown Nail Treatment
This non-invasive procedure permanently prevents ingrown nails through chemical matrixectomy. Patients experience minimal discomfort, no scarring, and immediate return to daily activities without requiring time off work or school.
Diabetic Foot Care
Specialized care for diabetic patients includes nerve conduction assessments, circulation checks, and preventative foot maintenance. Our services reduce amputation risks through early detection and education on daily foot care routines.
Children's Podiatry
We diagnose and manage foot development issues in children, offering interventions for gait abnormalities and footwear assessments. Treatment plans consider growth patterns to prevent long-term mobility problems while ensuring age-appropriate care.
Gait Analysis
Using TOG GaitScan technology, we analyze walking patterns to identify mechanical inefficiencies. This assessment informs treatment plans for foot-related pain in knees, hips, and lower back through visual feedback and customized orthotic solutions.
