Footcare
Treatment and advice for healthy feet
Healthy feet play a huge role in how you feel but sometimes having MS can make it difficult caring for them in a way you would like. Whether you have problems reaching your feet or gripping the nippers, a footcare appointment will leave your feet feeling wonderful. Our foot health professional Ruth will help you look after your feet and can offer advice on taking care of them.
Footcare at the Centre ranges from a general tidy up of those bits and pieces of hard skin, cracked heels and thick toenails to treatment of specific issues such as in-growing toenails. Our chiropodist also offers treatments and advice for other foot conditions as well as giving general guidance on good foot management. By taking place at our fully accessible Centre building, footcare is accessible for people of all levels of disability. The number of appointments will depend on your specific needs.
