Fungal Nail Infections
Fungal nail infections are so embarrassing for people and most fungal nail infections are so unsightly due to the discolouration. The condition can be uncomfortable due to the thickness of the nail as the fungus sits on the nail bed and pushes the nail upwards. Most topical treatments do not have a positive effect, but there is a solution although it does take persistence and patience as toenails grow very slowly in most cases taking approximately 12-18 months. Sara will guide you on the best option available. Sara has experience a fungal toenail herself so she understands the need to clear the infection.
Nail Trimming
Nail trimming is an important part of caring for your feet.
Cutting nails badly can cause lots of problems, which can lead to needing nail surgery as ingrowing toenails cause discomfort and pain.
Sara cuts the nails correctly and can also help with removing spikes of nail that have been left in place that dig into the skin.
Footcare for Diabetics
Diabetics have to be very careful when caring for their feet as they can suffer with neuropathy, numbness & the loss of feeling in their feet, and the slower healing process.
Therefore having their feet maintained by a qualified practitioner is extremely important. Sara has been working with diabetics for over 10 years in residential homes/day centres and hospital settings.
Callous & Corn Removal
Hard skin & corns can be very painful, if left untreated. Removing hard skin and removing corns eradicates the pain and discomfort. Relief for the patient is immediate after treatment. Sara takes the time and effort to achieve complete pain relief for the patient.
Foot assessment
Not sure if a practitioner can help? If you need your feet checking, a bit of professional foot health advice or signposting to other services and types of treatment then this service may be just the thing for you.
At this appointment we will assess the health of your circulation, sensation, skin and nails along with recommendations for any treatment which may help.
