More about Foot health:
Foot health is available to everyone, adults and children. The average person takes 10,000 steps per day and the foot has an important part to play in our everyday lives.
Treatment is for a wide range of foot health problems and disorders. Some patients require treatment on a regular 6-8 weeks others may require a general tidy and check up or a course of treatment for a specific problem.
The average person takes 10000 steps per day and the foot is made up of 26 bones and 23 muscles therefore has an important role to play in our everyday lives. It is important that our feet are well maintained and healthy, which is the aim of a foot healthcare professional.
Appointments last 45 minutes and an initial consultation may require up to 1 hour to ensure that a thorough foot examination is conducted and a detailed medical history is taken.
The stages of treatment are discussed with each patient to suit individual needs and requirements. Treatments will include nail clipping and removal of any corns and callus and end with a therapeutic foot massage.
Sarah is currently completing a degree in Podiatry at Huddersfield University (to be completed in 2010) to expand her scope of practice to include Bio-mechanical Assessments, Sports Injuries, ad Toenail Surgery. She is fully committed to Continual Professsional Development.
