Foot Pain, Biomechanics & Footscan Analysis
If your symptoms are linked to how you walk or how your feet load, we may recommend a Footscan & Gait Analysis.
This assesses how your feet, ankles, knees and hips move during walking and helps us identify the root cause of recurring pain or imbalance.
Optional soft line for upsell without saying “orthotics”:
If needed, we’ll guide you through supportive, strengthening or onward care options

Podiatrist vs Chiropodist – Is There a Difference?
Short answer: No.
A Podiatrist is simply the modern name for what many people used to call a Chiropodist.
If you’ve been told to “see a chiropodist”, you’re in the right place — our clinicians are HCPC-registered Podiatrists with the highest level of training in foot and nail care.
Why HCPC Registration Matters
HCPC registration protects you as a patient and ensures your clinician meets strict medical, professional and safety standards.
When choosing a podiatrist or chiropodist, always look for HCPC registration.
