Orthotics, Orthoses or Insoles are devices used to alter or modify foot function in order to treat biomechanical foot pain related disorders. Orthotics are an effective method of treating foot, ankle, knee, hip and lower back pain. Our Orthotics are 100% bespoke and custom made from a cast mould of your feet and an individual video gait analysis which formulates the prescription.
A biomechanical or Gait Analysis assessment is very beneficial if you are experiencing pain in your feet or lower limbs but no cause has been established. A biomechanical assessment is the starting point for understanding the cause of your problem, what treatment is needed or whether further investigations are necessary. The analysis allows us to write an accurate prescription for your Orthoses, otherwise it is like buying eye glasses off the shelf with no prescription.
We offer a wide range of minor surgical procedures, the most common being Nail Surgery for ingrown/ingrowing or thickened toenails. Nail surgery is performed under local anaesthetic for the treatment of painful toenails.
Verrucas are stubborn and highly contagious viral infections of the skin. Here at OsteoGait Podiatry we utilise the very latest research and most effective surgical and non-surgical methods to help eradicate your Verrucas for good. This is often in the form of Liquid Nitrogen (Freezing), Salycylic Acid (Burning) or a more recent highly safe and effective method known as Verruca Needling.
We specialise in the management of lower limb pain and injury, working closely with athletic individuals. Some foot and ankle injuries can be managed with rehabilitation and preventative measures such as immobilisation and orthoses or insoles. Some injuries may require referral for surgical management, which we are able to further advise you on.
Foot care should be an important part of every diabetic’s plan for preventing complications of high blood sugar.
As well as specialising in sports injury and minor surgery, we offer routine podiatry or chiropody care. This includes the management of a broad range of pathology such as removal of painful corns or callus, ingrown or ingrowing toenails, nail cutting, skin conditions, gout or foot fungus.
Foot care in the early formative years is vitally important and can save many problems in adulthood.
100% custom made bespoke devices which are placed either on the foot or in the shoe to improve foot function in much the same way that spectacles improve imperfect eyesight.
Our highly-skilled physiotherapists specialise in restoring your normal function and movement patterns so you can get on with everyday life.
