General Foot Care

General foot care should not be undervalued. We are on our feet every day and should be doing all we can to look after them! Podiatric foot care will not only have your feet looking great but feeling amazing too. This treatment may include the removal of corns, callous, rough skin and treating thickened or hard toenails.

Diabetic Foot Care

People with diabetes must take extra care to look after their feet. Diabetes can make us more prone to foot complications such as reduced blood flow, peripheral neuropathy (nerve dysfunction) and foot deformity. Your podiatrist can check your blood flow and nerve function and provide advice on how you can manage your condition in order to reduce the risk of diabetic related foot complications.

Fungal Foot Infections

Fungal diseases can affect anyone and can frequently occur in the skin and nails of our feet. Fortunately, our podiatrists can work with you to not only treat your fungal condition, but also figure out why it occurred, and how you can prevent reoccurrence.

Orthotic Prescription

An orthotic is a shoe insert that is designed to support your foot, altering alignment and pressure, in order to improve foot function and reduce pain.

At Total Comfort Podiatry, we offer both semi-custom and fully custom orthotics.

Semi-Custom Orthotics

With this style of orthotic, your podiatrist will acquire your foot size. From there, adjustments can be made to the prescription in order to best treat your condition. This method is a cost-friendly option for children or for those with mild foot pain.

Fully Custom Orthotics

Our podiatrists use foam box casting for fully custom orthotic prescriptions. These foam boxes allow for a mess-free and highly accurate impression of your feet, allowing your podiatrist to tailor-make your orthotics to your exact requirements.

Plantar Fasciitis

Plantar fasciitis is one of the most common conditions that podiatrists see. It is an overuse injury that affects the heel and the arch of the foot. Sufferers of this condition frequently feel the pain first thing in the morning and after extended periods of rest. There are a number of factors that can cause a flare up of this injury.

If you think you may be suffering from this condition, book an appointment today for a full biomechanics assessment with your podiatrist.

Warts

Plantar foot warts are caused by the Human Papillomavirus and can be tricky to treat. Here at the clinic, we have access to advanced topical preparations to treat plantar warts.

Dry Needling

This is a technique that podiatrists use to treat myofascial trigger points. These are tight areas within a muscle, that often cannot be treated by stretching alone. Dry needling releases these “knots” to reduce pain and increase muscle function.
