Chiropody

Chiropody is a primary healthcare profession which specializes in the assessment, treatment and prevention of foot disorders. Chiropodists can help children, adults and seniors with a variety of foot problems. In children, early detection of many foot problems (flat feet, in or out toeing) can prevent more serious complications from developing later (knee, hip or low back pain).  The geriatric population can benefit from chiropody service for treatment of painful lesions resulting from the long-term effects of diabetes, rheumatoid osteoarthritis and biomechanical anomalies.

 

Chiropodists are often called upon by physicians and other healthcare professionals for consultation and treatment of common foot problems such as:

 

  Thick nails and conservative ingrown toenail treatment

 

 Permanent ingrown toenail treatment by surgical management with local anesthetic and phenolization.

 

 Painful corns or callous formations

 

 Fungal nail or skin infections

 

 Plantar warts or lesions

 

 Localized heel or arch pain

 

 Management of the diabetic foot specializing in wound management and rheumatoid foot

 

 Custom prescription orthotics / footwear

 

Chiropody in Ontario is not covered under OHIP but is covered by most Third Party insurance, Extended Health Care plans, Veteran’s Affairs Benefits and Workman’s Compensation.
