GREAT FOOT HEALTH IS ABOUT MORE THAN JUST TAKING GOOD CARE OF YOUR FEET

 

OUR SERVICES


  • GENERAL PODIATRY
    • Management of nails, corns and callus (hard skin), warts, fungal infections (of the nails and skin), ingrown toenails and more.
  • MEDICAL PEDICURE
    • Trim your toenails, remove hard skin from the heels and balls of your feet, moisturise your feet, remove any nail polish or shellac you might still have on, moisturise skin with cream.
  • PACT Nail Fungus Therapy
    • Using PACT, bacteria, viruses and fungi can be killed off effectively on skin surfaces and nails without pain.
    • Upon application of the PACT Fungal Nail Gel, the dye selectively targets the fungal cell walls, making them sensitive to light. The fungal cells can then be destroyed upon exposure to light of a specific wavelength. This results in a chemical reaction that kills targeted cells without harming healthy tissue.
    • PACT requires 3 treatments, one week apart. Ongoing requirements will be determined by your Podiatrist, taking into account the length of time that you have had the infection, as well as the severity.
