to twelve months. This laser is safe,

effective, and only requires two or

three treatments over a three-month

period. There’s no real risk compared

to taking a particular drug which can

have bad consequences on your liver,

for example”, Jason says.

According to Jason, each patient has

to be looked at individually. “There’s

not one recipe, it’s based on the

individual”, he explains. The dedicated

practitioners have to observe the

patient for any obvious signs, take an

in-depth look at their medical history

in order to determine any factors that

might be influencing their conditions,

and perform a wide range of tests. As

the clinics only use evidence-based

treatments, treatment plans need to

be tailored to each patient in order to

ensure the highest levels of care and

success rates.

Providing tested and safe treatments

Another example of a tried-and-

tested care option is the shockwave

treatment. The technology, which

came from Germany, was originally

used to break down kidney stones.

However, once the intensity is turned

down, it can be used to treat chronic

soft tissue issues like tendons.

More specifically, it reduces the pain

associated with those types of injuries

so that the clinics can then implement

additional treatments like stretching

programs. Conditions like Achilles’

tendon problems highlight the need

for this technology. Importantly, this

kind of treatment is rarely used on its

own as it’s more often used as part of

a wider treatment plan.

Investing in the future

As dedicated podiatrists, the clinics

usually see an older demographic.

To amend that, Jason is planning a

new website and marketing scheme

along with other initiatives that

will be designed to getting younger

demographics into the clinics.

Services like online bookings and

other conveniences will also be
