Experienced podiatrists in Kettering

Normally every 6-8 weeks.  This applies when you want us to manage the health of your feet and treat them as needed. Otherwise, it is entirely up to you to come in as and when you feel the need.

It’s all about preventing pain and keeping you moving.  All problems with the feet are caused the way you walk or by your genetics. Shoes exacerbate the situation, but they do not necessarily cause it. You could be preventing a knee or hip replacement in later life by acting now, because when you are out of alignment in your feet, it has a knock-on effect up the body by firstly causing corns and hard skin, then later on bunions, shin splints, sore knees, and hip and lower back problems.

So it’s important to have your feet checked regularly, just as you would your teeth, your eyes or your car. Having your feet examined by a chiropodist could save years of unnecessary expense and discomfort.

It is also worth noting that the NHS now only takes on patients with chronic circulatory and diabetic problems.

If you attend regular treatments, you don’t need to do much. Just make sure you dry between your toes after a shower or bath. Make sure you regularly apply any anti-fungal or verruca treatments daily. Applying moisturising cream twice a day will prevent dry skin, especially cracks in the heels.

We do try not to hurt anyone.  All we want is for you to walk out of the clinic feeling happier than when you walked in. If you’re ticklish, don’t worry about that either, we hold your feet steady so that you trust us.

This practice primarily focuses on adults.
