Services
Podiatry
Our podiatry service addresses foot and ankle conditions using evidence-based treatments. Specialists diagnose biomechanical issues through gait analysis and Doppler ultrasound, prescribing custom orthotics and injection therapies. We treat sports injuries, diabetic foot complications, and chronic pain, combining manual therapies with rehabilitation plans. The team holds advanced qualifications in lower limb surgery and vascular health, ensuring comprehensive care for patients of all activity levels.
Physiotherapy
Physiotherapy covers musculoskeletal rehabilitation, sports injury recovery, and post-operative care. Practitioners use manual techniques, acupuncture, and Shockwave therapy alongside exercise programs. Specialised pelvic health services address menopausal symptoms and post-natal recovery. With experience treating Premier League athletes, our physiotherapists create tailored plans for back pain, joint issues, and chronic conditions, focusing on restoring mobility and preventing future injuries through biomechanical assessment.
Shockwave Therapy
As Chester's first clinic offering Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy, we treat chronic tendon injuries and musculoskeletal pain. This non-invasive treatment stimulates healing in conditions like plantar fasciitis and tennis elbow. Backed by NICE validation, our protocol delivers targeted acoustic waves to accelerate tissue repair and reduce inflammation, often providing relief where traditional methods have failed, with measurable improvements seen in 80% of cases after three sessions.
Chiropody
Chiropody services focus on routine foot care including nail trimming, corn removal, and verruca treatment. Specialists manage diabetic foot conditions and prescribe footwear modifications. The team performs minor surgeries under local anaesthetic, addressing both cosmetic concerns and functional impairments. Regular appointments help maintain mobility for elderly patients and prevent complications from chronic conditions like arthritis and circulatory disorders.
Vitamin Injections
Administered by GMC-registered doctors, vitamin B12, D, and IV drip treatments boost energy and immunity. The Vitamin Clinic follows strict protocols using UK-licensed products traceable to source. Treatments address deficiencies from dietary restrictions or medical conditions, with optional free consultations to determine suitability. All products meet NHS safety standards, avoiding unregulated imports found in some alternative clinics.
