24.01.2022 Fungal nail infections can spread within your household - especially if you're sharing showers, socks or bedsheets! We used to see so many patients that had tried the #antifungal creams and lacquers for their feet and nails with NO success that we knew that we needed to do something about it and offer a better solution. This is exactly how our antifungal LASER nail treatment came to our clinic! While the term #laser makes many of our patients excited at the innovation, i...t also makes some people hesitant because they're worried that it may be painful. Don't worry - laser therapy is PAIN-FREE! And we've been seeing success rates of up to 88% with it in our clinics - compared to 5-10% with the previous creams and topical treatments Come in and see if you're eligible for antifungal laser treatment by booking in with one of our #Podiatrists today!

15.01.2022 Did you know that gout used to be known as 'Rich Man's Disease'? Interestingly, back in the old days before there was a clear medical understanding of the disease process in gout, it was often referred to as the rich man’s disease because wealthy men would be the most common sufferers of gout. The likely reasoning behind this was because their diet contained more expensive high-purine foods than what the average man would consume. This included alcohol, certain seafood and... shellfish, certain meats like liver, venison, veal and turkey, and more.

04.01.2022 When you have foot or #legpain or an #injury, your SHOE is NOT just a shoe. We actually look at it like a medical device that's going to keep your feet stable, controlled and supported throughout your #recovery They're going to control how much your ankle rolls freely from side to side, the way you put pressure through areas of the foot, the force and shock that goes through your bones when you take a step - and MUCH more.... That's why #footwear is such an important part of your treatment plan. You need to keep walking, right? But if the way you walk is one of the reasons you've developed that pain in the first place, then what's going to stop your pain from getting worse instead? That's right - your shoes. And some orthotics if we assess that you need them. Your shoes will become the ground you walk on - and you want that ground to be helping your recovery - not slowing it down. Need help finding the right shoes for your feet and your life? Our knowledgeable team can help!
