Chiropody
Specialist care for your feet; general condition, circulation and the sensation of your feet are all assessed. Treatment and advice is then given for a variety of foot health problems including callus, thick nails, corns and skin problems.
Biomechanics
Badly aligned foot joints can cause pain within the feet and also knees, hips and lower back. Where alignment is incorrect, orthotics (moulded insoles) can help realign the bones and improve gait to relieve the symptoms. To assess your lower limb alignment and function of your feet, you may benefit from specialist assessment.
Sports and Remedial Massage
Sports and Remedial massage is a safe, effective and proven therapy that is not the sole privilege of the professional athlete. It is provided by our Sports Massage Association/Institute of Sport and Remedial Massage accredited Practitioner.
Learn about Swift, the most advanced and successful treatment for long term, stubborn verrucae.
Thousands of people all over the UK (and the world) have had their verrucas treated and cured with Swift. But it’s the people who have suffered for decades that have been cured in just a handful of treatment sessions that make this treatment so remarkable.
So many people have given up on treatments for stubborn verruca – Swift offers those patients renewed hope, and for almost 80% of patients, complete freedom from the condition.
If you have a verruca and you have tried all the over counter treatments with no success or recently discovered you have a verruca we will be happy to help. Contact us today.
Low Level Laser Therapy
We use this in clinic to help patients with painful conditions.
Low Level Laser Therapy can be helpful to alleviate pain, reduce inflammation, stimulate the immune system, improve wound healing and to promote tissue regeneration.
We see several conditions that benefit from the use of Low Level Laser Therapy as part of your treatment plan. These include Plantar Fasciitis, Achilles Tendonitis, Heel pain, Anterior tibial Tendonitis and pain and flare up’s due to arthritis. Our team of clinicians can discuss if this treatment may help you to recover from your painful condition.
This is also called “Photobiomodulation” or Light therapy, is uses harmless forms of light sources and works because our cells contain “chromophores” which absorb light. Once the light is absorbed, it sets off a complex group of physical and chemical reactions within the cell. These reactions can and do extend to cells that have not even been exposed to light.
Ingrown Nail Surgery
The March podiatry nail surgery service can provide a long term solution to chronic and painful nails that have not responded to other podiatric treatments, for example, recurring in-growing toenails. Nail surgery is a minor surgical procedure to remove all or part of a nail under local analgesia. Following the removal, the nail bed is treated with a chemical to stop the nail from growing back again.
The estimated healing time of post surgery is 6-12 weeks, note this can be longer in some cases.
All patients will attend for assessment and if suitable can be booked in with one of our highly experience podiatrists for the procedure . If you would like further information on the procedure and costs please contact our helpful reception who will be able to give you any further information.
Home Visits
At March Podiatry, we understand that some patients may have trouble coming to our clinic. That’s why we provide home visits in the March area. Our podiatrists can offer the same quality of service at your home as they do at our clinic. You can choose between morning or afternoon slots, but we cannot guarantee a specific time due to traffic and distance factors.
If you are interested in booking a home visit for yourself or a loved one, please call our reception team. They will assist you with scheduling an appointment and give you all the details you need.
Toe Nail Reconstruction
Toenail reconstruction is a cosmetic or medical procedure performed by a podiatrist. We use a specialist gel that is layered either directly onto the nail or nail bed if no nail is present due to trauma or surgery. This creates a brand new nail or covers unsightly or misshapen nails so that the nail is more aesthetically pleasing.
Nail reconstruction is not a permanent solution. The length of time that the nail reconstruction lasts will vary from person to person. The new nail will generally last between 4 and 6 weeks but can last longer depending on how much of the nail is damaged; after this time the reconstructed nail is removed and reapplied.
The treatment procedure:
-
If you have a nail the podiatrist will begin by reducing the nail and removing as much of the diseased nail as possible. The nail is then roughened with the file
-
The toenail is cleaned to remove oil and disinfected
-
A solution containing an anti-fungal is applied to the nail plate/nail bed to enhance the bonding of the gel
-
The podiatrist will then apply the gel in layers, with each layer being hardened under a UV light. As soon as the desired look and thickness has been achieved the nail is then filed and buffed smooth
-
Finally, if desired, a high gloss layer can be applied
-
A reconstructed toenail may be treated in exactly the same way as you would treat a normal nail, this means that you can also apply nail varnish and use a nail varnish remover
