Your whole foot routine, no haul required 👣
Save this. It's genuinely all most people need:
✅ Wash daily and dry properly, especially between the toes
✅ Moisturise the tops and soles, but not between the toes
✅ Cut nails straight across, not too short and not down the sides
✅ Check your feet for changes in skin, nails or feeling
✅ Wear shoes that fit and put on clean socks every day
✅ See a podiatrist when something changes or won't settle
No nine-step shelf of scrubs and gadgets. Six habits, that's the routine.

Heel and arch pain, and the culprit might be your big toe.
It's called the windlass mechanism. Lift your big toe and the band of tissue along your sole tightens and pulls your arch up. When that toe gets stiff, the whole system stops working the way it should, and the ache turns up somewhere you'd never think to blame.
This is exactly the sort of thing a biomechanical assessment picks up. The pain and the cause aren't always in the same place.

A nail trim sounds simple. The bit you don't see is everything that happens before the clippers come out.
Every new patient gets a proper assessment first, because what looks like a routine cut sometimes isn't the whole story. Once your podiatrist knows what's actually going on with your feet, then we decide if nail cutting is the right call. Sometimes it is. Sometimes there's something worth sorting first.
It's not us being awkward. It's us doing the job properly.

Feet are good at hiding things, which is part of why we look closely.
A dark streak on a nail that bleeds pigment into the skin around it has a name, Hutchinson's sign, and it can point to a melanoma growing under the nail. It's rare. It's also the kind of thing that's easy to dismiss as a bruise or a knock you don't remember.
We're not here to alarm you. We're here to say that odd nail changes are worth a look, and a quick check beats wondering.

Eva left us five stars after her Ostenil treatment with Endija, which is the kind of thing we never get tired of seeing. Ostenil is an injection that helps with joint pain caused by arthritis, and we offer it for the right cases after an assessment. If your joints have been making themselves known lately, book in.

Scotland has done the unthinkable and given us a full week of sun.

Which means one thing. The feet are about to make their annual public appearance.

Here are three small habits that will save your feet over the next (hopefully) few sunny weeks. Sunscreen the tops, let them breathe, hydrate the heels.

And if there's something underneath that needs proper attention, that's what we're here for.
