Thank you...
....for you interest in this, the official web site of Dr.
Mike Ingle, a state registered chiropodist
in private practice on the North Wales - Shropshire
borders in the UK. Information on the services offered
by this practice, plus details for obtaining footcare advice and
other useful contacts, follows.
- Overview
- This practice offers both home visits
and a clinical service. Patients come
from all age groups and backgrounds with a wide variety
of problems of diverse origin.
-
- Routine Chiropody
- Routine chiropody forms the backbone of this practice.
Many patients have concurrent medical conditions which
require close liason with the patients' medical
practitioners. An appointment can normally be offered
within 3-4 days, given some element of flexibility in the
timing!
-
- Biomechanics - Orthoses
- Sports Injuries
- Pain under the sole of the foot during the run? Or shin
splints? Arch or heel pain after working all day? Maybe
it's low back pain, and the problem worsens when walking
uphill? Downhill? Shooting pain round the big toe joint,
especially when teeing-off!
- A full service for diagnosis and treatment is available.
This practice is registered with the Medical
Devices Agency for
the provision of foot orthoses and devices. If an
orthosis is prescribed then it will normally be ready for
fitting and collection within 7-10 days (3-4days for
overseas customers).
- Besides casted othoses, custom made functional insoles
can also be provided.
- OVERSEAS ENQUIRIES ARE
WELCOMED.
- Nail surgery
- A service for the treatment of ingrowing and excessively
curved nails is available, with a range of options and
procedures. Where necessary the nail bed can be treated
to prevent a regrowth. Please note that some procedures
may not be offered if there are certain concurrent
medical conditions.
- OVERSEAS ENQUIRIES ARE
WELCOMED.
-
- Footcreams and Essential
Oils
- Euped footcreams
and essential oils are available from this address. These
creams are only available to the public through
chiropodists/podiatrists. The creams are hypoallergenic,
they contain no animal derivatives (are wholly vegan),
and are excellent emollients. The variety Ultra
contains no fragrances and is therefore especially
suitable for diabetics. (The preservatives used are
phenoxyethanol and parabens.)

supplied at competitive prices in 20ml dispensing
containers.
