Who do we treat?

We see all ages and divide our expertise into two streams. General foot care and services relating to the feet, ankles and legs for those who are active or looking to improve their pain or function. If you are someone suffering from ulcerations, we would suggest you access your local high risk foot clinic to best manage your needs.

What to bring to your initial biomechanical consultation?

- Any relevant scans and history of any recent injuries relating to your ankles, feet or legs, including a list of any medications or medical conditions you may have.
- A selection of your most commonly worn shoes worn in your everyday and activities [a bag or small suitcase is welcomed]
- GP referral is relevant such as an EPC plan or practitioner referral.
- Wear comfortable clothing, like activewear, that allows us to see from your knees to your feet.
