Dealing with very painful plantar fasciitis I was referred to Brandon (Chiropodist) who was very understanding of my situation and set me on the road to recovery. Brandon also referred me to a physiotherapist, Martin, for shockwave treatments and exercises. All of these worked and I have been able to resume my walking with very little pain in my foot.

You may be asking, but why me, and why now! Did you know that as you age, your feet will often change? Changes in the shape of your feet, the support of your ligaments, and complications from previous injuries can all cause strain and can lead to foot pain!

Why is Foot Care Important?
Taking care of your feet is key to staying active, avoiding injuries, and easing pain. Simple habits like trimming nails and moisturizing can prevent problems like ingrown toenails, corns, and calluses that can hurt and even cause infections.
For people with diabetes, regular foot care is very important to stop issues like sores and nerve damage. Healthy feet will not only help you feel more comfortable day to day, but it will also help you maintain your balance and reduce your risk of falling.
You might need to see a chiropodist if you’re experiencing foot pain, discomfort when walking, or issues like ingrown toenails, corns, or calluses. If you have diabetes, regular visits to a chiropodist are important to check for any signs of foot complications. Anyone dealing with ongoing foot issues, balance problems, or concerns about their gait may also benefit from a chiropodist’s care. If your feet feel uncomfortable or you notice changes in your skin or nails, it’s a good idea to get a professional opinion.
During a foot care appointment, the chiropodist will take a close look at your feet, checking for any issues like ingrown toenails, corns, or signs of infection. They’ll also assess your overall foot health, especially if you have any concerns related to diabetes or pain. Treatments could include trimming nails, removing hard skin, and offering advice on comfortable footwear or custom orthotics. The goal is to help keep your feet healthy and address any discomfort you might have..
