Podiatry

Are you struggling with foot and ankle pain, corns, callouses or verrucas?

Does this describe you?

  • YOU’RE SUFFERING ONGOING foot or ankle pain…
  • YOU feel like you have a pebble in your shoe under your heel…
  • YOUr ingrowing toenails are killing you…
  • YOU’RE worried you’re starting to develop a bunion
  • YOU AREa a runner and you’re getting lower limb pain and are thinking of getting insoles…

Then you have come to the right place.

At Wandsworth Physiotherapy and Osteopathy our expert podiatrist will assess your foot posture and flexibility and put together a bespoke treatment plan to get you quickly out of pain. Whether referred by another medical professional or you just want some advice and direction we endeavour to provide accurate treatment and care to maintain a high standard of recovery and rehab.

Podiatrists (also known as Chiropodists) are experts at assessing, diagnosing and treating problems with the foot and lower limb. Podiatry and chiropody differ, however most practitioners do both.

Our podiatrist can treat:

  • Nail problems and nail surgery for in grown toe nails
  • Ankle pain such as ankle sprains and tarsal tunnel syndrome
  • Treatment for corns and verruca
  • Sports injury including Achilles tendon pain
  • Medical pedicure for rough skin and calluses
  • Shin pain such as shin splints
  • Diabetic feet for foot and toe care
  • Forefoot pain including Morton’s neuroma and metatarsalgia
  • Plantar pressure gait scan and custom made orthotic insoles
  • Heel pain such as plantar fasciitis or Baxter’s nerve entrapment
  • Toe pain including bunions, toe arthritis and Freidbergs disease

Chiropody is the treatment of ingrown toe nails, fungal nail infections, athletes foot, verrucas, corns, calluses and bunions. Podiatry is the analysis of the position and movement of your feet (called foot biomechanics) and how you walk (called gait).

Gait can be assessed with Plantar Pressure Gait Scan. This is a dynamic, weight-bearing scan of the feet during gait. It tracks the way pressure is transferred through your foot, and allows us to isolate individual areas of your foot and correct them with insoles (orthotics) and specific exercises. A podiatrist can also work with the physio’s and osteopaths on the team to work on improving your biomechanics and function.

**Insole orders are placed within 48 hours of your appointment and can take 2-4 weeks for manufacture and delivery. Once we have received them we will contact you for a fitting**

Ready to Make a Change?

At Wandsworth Physiotherapy & Osteopathy we're focused on getting you out of pain and back to what you love doing, from simply sitting comfortably to playing with your kids, getting back into the gym or being able to run 5k again, our expert Physiotherapists, Podiatrists & Osteopaths are here to help!

About Our Podiatrist…

With all of the procedures undertaken in the clinical setting, the highest level of expertise and care are employed. Whether gait analysis, orthotic manufacture, nail surgery or simple chiropody, all aspects of the treatment are undertaken in professional surroundings with a holistic, patient focused approach.

As a fully registered and insured Podiatrist who has worked extensively with physiotherapists, Jack’s interest in treating the full body filters through to his patient and it is not uncommon to be referred to other specialists to ensure full and comprehensive care is achieved.

Jack has worked in all aspects of Podiatry from diabetic and wound care clinics, nail surgery and reconstruction, rehab and post-surgery care including acupuncture, ultrasound and laser therapies.

He has a keen interest in improving the environment for the foot to function in and uses a plantar pressure and plantar force platform to make sure we analyse the correct data to ensure this, therefore allowing insole/orthotic prescription manufacture and adjustment to achieve specific targeted results.

Jack Lidyard qualified from Brighton University as a Podiatrist in 2008 and immediately began working with athletes from an amateur to national level.

For any nail, skin, foot, orthotic or rehab questions, please contact myself or the clinic directly.

Brilliant all round experience. After sustaining a marathon injury during training Wandsworth Physiotherapy managed to fit me in the next day and was back up and running within 2 weeks after three 30 minute sessions. Gave me exercises to go away and do in my own time too so felt like I was making the most of their and my time too.

Marina Williams

These guys are fantastic! Really quick to reply and they found me an appointment on the same day. I've since had regular treatments with Alessio who is excellent, and my torn IT band, shoulder and other ailments are much improved. Brilliant for both sports injuries and wellness.

Gerry Sweetland

Booked an appointment for the same day on a Saturday. Adele has been very welcoming and helpful, providing useful advice as well as efficient treatment. Great local clinic, will definitely come back and recommend.

Jean Reverdy

Steve was excellent. Long term/complex shoulder injury treated over a number of sessions - patient, curious and methodical. Great treatments and programme of exercises and I'm back to pain free swimming.

~ Nick Outlaw

I've been several times for several different problems and Steve has always been excellent. He listens really carefully and asks good questions to find out exactly what's wrong, and is very clear with follow-up exercises to continue the therapy at home. Highly recommend him!
