Chiropody Services in Tillsonburg
A highly specialized field of medicine, chiropody focuses on the assessment, treatment, and prevention of podiatric conditions. By providing quality foot care options to the Tillsonburg community, we are able to improve everything from skin and nail ailments to biomechanical issues impacting the feet.
Chiropody Assessments
These evaluations seek to understand not only the presenting symptoms, but their underlying causes. To determine these facts, our experienced chiropodist conducts a thorough examination and discusses the issue with the patient. In this way, an accurate assessment can develop; and, through detailed communication with the treating physiotherapist and yourself, an ideal treatment plan can be generated to address your specific individual needs.
While certain conditions may see quick resolution, there are many others which require periodic maintenance in order for the patient’s feet to feel comfortable. If you are experiencing podiatric discomfort, contact our clinic to book your consultation.

Orthopedic Approach
In order to provide comprehensive services, our clinic often couples chiropody with orthotic therapy; since, through the use of orthotics, we can frequently provide significant functional improvement through biomedical correction. Values of this approach include stress relief in:
Feet
Knees
Hips
Lower back
Many measures are taken to ensure the accurate fit of your orthotics, especially our featured custom-molded options. These are manufactured from a corrected plaster cast of the foot, ensuring that the finished device fits accurately. By taking these extra steps, we are able to promote the most efficient functioning possible, thus reducing symptoms of pain and fatigue.
