Class IV laser therapy for foot, ankle, nail and skin conditions.
Class IV medical laser therapy may be used as part of a treatment plan for plantar fasciitis, heel pain, Achilles tendon pain, sports injuries, verruca, warts and fungal nail concerns.
A supportive treatment option for pain, inflammation and tissue recovery.
Class IV laser therapy uses targeted light energy over a treatment area and may be used to support pain relief, tissue healing and recovery. At The Podiatry Clinic, treatment is planned around your diagnosis rather than used as a one-size-fits-all option.
Diagnosis first
We assess the likely cause of your symptoms first, especially with heel pain, tendon problems, fungal nails or verruca, so your treatment plan is matched to the condition.
Targeted treatment
Laser therapy is applied to the affected area and may be used alongside podiatry care, rehabilitation advice, footwear guidance, orthotics or other treatment options.
Clear next steps
You will be guided on whether laser is suitable, how many sessions may be advised and what to do between appointments to support recovery.
Conditions that may be treated with laser therapy.
Laser may be considered for selected podiatry and musculoskeletal conditions after assessment.
Your laser therapy pathway.
Assessment
We look at your symptoms, history, diagnosis and previous treatment. New patients should usually book an assessment first.
Suitability check
Laser is not right for every case. We check whether your condition, health history and treatment goals make it a suitable option.
Treatment course
For returning patients, laser may be booked as a follow-up treatment once the correct pathway has been confirmed.
Ongoing care
We monitor response and may combine laser with strengthening, load management, footwear advice, nail care or verruca treatment planning.
