Welcome
Hello my name is James i am a fully qualified, insured Foot Health Practitioner. I come to see you in your own home and will spend up to 45mins to 1 hour so no quick in and out job. I have many patients, those with diabetes, arthritis, mobility and eyesight problems as well as those who love to give their feet a treat. Your feet are one of your most important parts of your body and are put under pressure all day long. It is best not to ignore any foot pain and problems, but to see a Foot Health Professional at the earliest opportunity. Why seek help? Foot problems are very common and can affect all ages. From corns and calluses, to fungal nail and skin conditions, what often may appear as something small and insignificant, can pose great difficulties with daily activities such as walking and exercise. Health issues such as diabetes, arthritis and poor circulation may cause foot problems but with regular care complications can be reduced. I offer a FREE Foot Health Check prior to your first appointment, where you will be treated in an unhurried, thorough and professional way. Following this initial consultation a treatment plan will be discussed and your first treatment performed. Foot treatments and routine maintenance offered can include:
FREE Foot Health Check and advice
Routine toe nail cutting and filing
Thickened and fungal nail management
Removal of painful corns
Hard, dry skin and callus removal
Routine assessment and foot care for high risk and diabetic patients
Advice on maintaining your foot care between appointments
Finger nail trimming is available as additional services of £5
Patient safety, hygiene and confidentiality are paramount. Great emphasis is placed on clinical cleanliness and I abide strictly to the care guidelines set out by the British Association of Foot Health Professionals. Feet are cleansed with antiseptic before treatment, with aseptic work techniques used during treatment and all work surfaces are cleansed between patients. Instruments are sterilized in an autoclave and remain sterile in a vacuum sealed pouch until opened during treatment so there can be no risk of cross contamination or infection. Why use a Foot Health Practitioner? Foot Health Practitioners (FHPâs) are trained and qualified in both the theoretical and practical aspects of Foot Health to enable them to assess the condition of your feet, treat as appropriate and refer you if necessary. FHPâs provide routine foot care and maintenance for your feet using the latest procedures and techniques to ensure that you receive the best possible treatment for your feet. I have undergone specialist training and examinations at The SMAE Institute in Maidenhead. I am a Member of the British Association of Foot Health Professionals (MAFHP) and a Member of the College of Foot Health Professionals (MCFHP) and am bound by the Code of Ethics and Rules of the Association. I undertake continual professional development (CPD) to keep my skills and knowledge up to date.
