Conditions We Treat
At Step First Podiatry, we treat a comprehensive range of foot and lower limb conditions. Early intervention prevents minor problems from becoming long-term issues.
PODIATRY
Our podiatry treatments aim to diagnose and treat minor foot ailments, including pain, growths and infections. We take care of your feet in order to improve your overall health, mobility and wellbeing.
NAIL SURGERY
Nail surgery helps resolve infected, ingrowing toenails or damaged, distorted thick nails. It can provide permanent pain relief and prevent recurrent infections.
VERRUCA
The verruca treatment we use stimulates the body’s immune system to resolve the virus. With minimal discomfort, usually treatments are every 2 to 4 weeks.
SWIFT FOR VERRUCAS
Microwave energy is widely used in a number of medical fields to elevate tissue temperatures and create precise, localised cell response. With treatment times in seconds, Swift provides a precise and easy way of treating skin lesions.
LASER THERAPY
Laser therapy involves directing laser light energy into inflamed or damaged tissues to accelerate the body’s natural healing process.
The laser is placed in direct contact with the skin which enables light photons to penetrate the tissue and interact with molecules within the cells to cause several biochemical effects.
DIABETIC ASSESSMENT
The main aim of the diabetic assessment is to allocate a risk status for ulceration.
BIOMECHANICAL ASSESSMENT
Our body parts are interconnected, and pain in one area can often originate elsewhere. By examining the entire body, including head, shoulders, pelvis, legs, knees and feet, we can help resolve associative pain and injuries.
CURACORN®
Curacorn® is a revolutionary technique using a sterile gel injection to cushion painful corns or pressure areas in the foot from inside the skin.
The procedure can eliminate the need for bulky padding or frequent visits to your podiatrist to have corn or calluses cut away.
Ankle Brachial Pressure Index (ABPI)
The Ankle Brachial Pressure Index (ABPI) is a simple, painless and highly effective test used to assess the blood flow to your legs and feet. It compares the blood pressure in your ankle with the blood pressure in your arm.
