    Skin and Nail Care

    We treat all manner of skin and nail conditions including:

    • Ingrown toenails (both conservative management or surgical management options available)
    • Fungal nail and skin infections
    • Acute toenail damage
    • Corns
    • Calluses
    • Verrucae or plantar warts
    • Dry or cracked heels and feet
    • Blistering
    • Diabetes related foot pain

    We know you might be nervous about receiving treatment on your feet, especially if they are already in pain or if you feel embarrassed about their appearance. We always take the utmost care to ensure that you are comfortable from beginning to end of your treatment, and leave feeling more confident and more comfortable with your feet.

    If we are unable to diagnose or provide suitable management options for your skin or nail condition, we can refer you to an appropriate medical specialist such as a dermatologist.

    We also know that the way that your feet look is as important as the way that they feel, so Bronwyn, Katie and their team developed the Resonance Podicure®.

    Radial Pressure Wave (RPW) – Shockwave Treatment

    We are committed to improving your comfort and function here at Capital Podiatry Centre, and the RPW Shockwave machine has allowed us to continue to advance our skills in helping you to become pain-free using this non-invasive leading-edge technology.

    Radial Pressure Waves are acoustic waves, which cause acute inflammation at the site of chronic injury. They help to reset the body’s response to chronic injures, encouraging increased blood flow and often improvement in symptoms in as few as 3 treatment sessions.

    There are many factors that can cause foot and leg pain and injury. These may present in the form of foot, arch or heel pain, calf or Achilles pain, shin pain, or knee pain, and are often linked to postural or structural imbalances causing overload and therefore pain. We will assess your biomechanics, gait, joint movement, strength and footwear, and provide you with a clear plan to help improve your pain and reduce the risk of future issue. All resonance podiatrists are ACC registered and hold an ACC contract for the funding of foot orthoses as part of the management plan following an accident.

    Resonance Podicure

    The Resonance Podicure is where Podiatry meets beauty. As podiatrists, we know the importance of comfortable feet, and now they can look as good as they feel. The Podicure is a bespoke medical pedicure, which is performed in our hygienic clinical setting using only the highest quality products. We can tailor the treatment to your needs, safely restoring skin to baby smooth and ensuring nails are trimmed and shaped correctly using our knowledge and experience.

    We also utilise the Keryflex Nail Restoration treatment, for people who have damaged or lost part of their nail(s) and wish to have them restored to a more regular shape for a special occasion or holiday.

    Video and 3D gait analysis

    MotionLab at Capital Sports Podiatry offers state of the art technology for gait evaluation and biomechanical analysis.

    Katie is our MotionLab expert, utilising dual camera 2D, as well as 3D video gait analysis: a system which allows us to use 3D data to quantify the clinical picture. This 3D data from your running or walking is measured against a statistical ideal, which assists us to identify the cause of any biomechanical imbalances which have the potential to cause pain or dysfunction during running or walking. This tool is helpful both for runners and walkers alike who wish to make changes to their gait in order to improve efficiency, reduce their risk of injury in the future, and be secure in the knowledge that they are being guided by experts in this field.

    Meeting your needs

    We welcome collaboration. It is at the heart of what we do.

    We work alongside other health professionals and maintain relationships with some of the best physiotherapists, massage therapists, GPs, Sports Physicians, Pilates & Yoga instructors, nutritionists, dermatologists & Orthopaedic surgeons Wellington has to offer.

    If we can’t help you with what you have come to see us about, we will always refer you on to an appropriate professional who we believe can. This may be physiotherapy, a sports doctor, a specialist physiotherapist, sports nutritionist, or even to a surgeon or dermatologist.  We will always help you to find the right path to achieve your goals.
