The Practice
Biomechanics
Musculo-skeletal podiatry aims to improve lower limb function and alignment, often by the use of insoles which are custom made. Pain occurring in the foot, leg or lower back may have a biomechanical cause which will respond to treatment with insoles. I use video gait analysis with a treadmill to help identify problems.

Homoeopathic Podiatry
I have undergone postgraduate training in homoeopathic podiatry at the Royal London Homoeopathic Hospital and can treat a range of foot related problems with Marigold Therapy and homoeopathy. This allows me to treat problems which respond poorly to conventional approaches and to offer gentle pain free treatment of verrucae.
On Site Insole Manufacture
I make all insoles on-site. These vary in the method of construction from very simple insoles made from templates to functional orthoses made by vacuum forming thermoplastics over modified casts of your feet. A range of materials are used including EVA, Poron4000, Acrylics and Carbon Fibre composites.
