We have always had the highest standards of infection control this includes rigorous hand washing, cleaning and sterilization of equipment and instruments for every patient and the cleaning of all clinic chairs and surfaces between appointments. We will wear disposable gloves, aprons and will use surgical masks (and a visor if necessary).

You will be contacted before you attend your appointment and a symptom check will be carried out. You will be asked if you have a high temperature, persistent cough or a loss of the sense of taste or smell.

If you have any of these symptoms to protect you,us and others your appointment will be rearranged and the governmental advice is that you should self isolate and book in for a Coronavirus test.

We also regularly provide treatments for patients who are on their feet a lot or have recurring foot problems.

Nail surgery

A minor surgical procedure to treat and remove painful toenails with use of local anaesthetic. Ingrowing and damaged toenails can be very painful, prone to infection, and interfere with walking and standing.

We will examine your nail issues and identify the best surgical treatment, whether it requires a simple adjustment or local anaesthetic. After the treatment, you will be advised on healthy nail care and ingrowing nail prevention.

Fungal nail treatment

Effective fungal nail treatment and prevention. We use the Lacuna Method, which targets the infection at its source, preventing it from spreading and helping the damaged nail regrow.

We will make micro holes in the nail plate with a small micro burr drill, so the Lamisil anti-fungal spray can penetrate the nail plate and reach the nail bed. The patient will then apply the same fungicidal spray daily at home, and come back to the clinic for a 6-8 week review with to check the infection has cleared and the nail is healing.

VERRUCA TREATMENT

Verrucae can be completely painless or very painful and are sometimes mistaken for corns. Our therapy includes proper diagnosis, and treatment which is evidenced based. As a verruca is caused by the wart virus they can often disappear on their own.

Warm Wax Therapy

A soothing treatment to soften skin and ease joint pain. Recommended for arthritic feet and hands, warm wax therapy uses melted paraffin wax to treat a variety of foot/hand problems.

Your feet/hands will be coated in warm, soothing paraffin wax, which will soften dry skin, ease arthritic pain.

Warm Wax Therapy is an add on treatment to the Routine Chiropody treatment.

What our clients say:

Alex visits me on a regular basis and makes my feet feel wonderful, and I look forward to her visits. She has a very pleasant and cheerful manner, and has always been the same all the years I have known her.

My husband and I have been so pleased to find Alex. My husband is disabled and Alex has handled our situation with both skill and concern. We can highly recommend her.

I have had my feet treated by Alex Houghton and have always found her to be professional and friendly as well as knowledgeable about my after care.
