Podiatry Treatments
General Podiatry
At the centre, we treat the different deformities of the feet and toes, as well as the conditions that appear in them: corns and hard skin, ingrown toenails, fungal infections of the nails and skin, papillomas (warts), reconstruction with acrylic nails and infiltrations.
In addition, we provide comprehensive foot care focused on both the prevention and treatment of common conditions, adapting each procedure to the specific needs of each patient. Our aim is to relieve pain, improve functionality and prevent long-term complications, especially in patients with risk factors.
We work with up-to-date techniques and a personalised approach to guarantee effective, long-lasting results, offering a safe and trusted environment. We support the patient throughout the entire process, providing recommendations and care guidelines to maintain foot health in day-to-day life.
Biomechanical Gait Analysis
With a biomechanical gait analysis, you will find out whether you walk or run correctly, helping to prevent injuries not only in the feet, but also in the knees, hips and back, thereby improving quality of life.
We have the latest technology for computerised gait analysis with the T-Plate pressure platform for all types of patients, including athletes.
This is a latest-generation platform that incorporates all the latest technological advances on the market, allowing a detailed biomechanical analysis of gait.
Sports Podiatry
- Biomechanical gait analysis and muscle and joint assessment.
- Custom-made insoles.
- Injury prevention.
- Active feedback with colleagues from other disciplines such as physiotherapy, sports medicine and rehabilitation.
Foot Surgery
We carry out a comprehensive biomechanical and radiological analysis, as well as a pre-surgical assessment, always seeking the most suitable procedure to achieve maximum foot functionality after surgery.
The advances in anaesthesia, osteosynthesis and the minimally invasive surgery we use allow for a rapid recovery with no post-surgical pain. We therefore offer our patients the best and most advanced surgical techniques.
Most procedures are performed under local anaesthetic and sedation, allowing the patient to walk home the same day. We treat conditions and deformities such as:
Ingrown toenails | Papillomas (warts) | Calluses | Bunions (Hallux Valgus) | Hammer and claw toes | Morton’s neuroma | Plantar fasciitis | Subungual exostosis | Foot tumours.
Children’s Podiatry
A child’s foot is different from an adult’s, as the bones are constantly developing during childhood. It is therefore important to monitor excessive plantar pressure, torsions or abnormal rotations in order to prevent future alterations.
Many problems in adulthood are caused by not having acted from an early age, which is why at Julia Álvarez Medical Centre we recommend regular check-ups for the youngest members of the family.
We offer personalised care, as each child will have a different developmental progression.
Some of the most common conditions are:
Flat feet | High-arched feet | Knock knees | Heel pain | Walking with the toes turned inwards Toe walking | Bow legs.
Geriatric Podiatry
Throughout our lives, our feet are responsible for carrying us, supporting the weight of the body for years. This is why age produces a series of changes in the skin and nails that need to be cared for.
A very common condition in older age is the displacement or loss of plantar fat, causing it to lose its shock-absorbing capacity and creating high pressure on the metatarsal heads, often leading to numerous injuries.
At Julia Álvarez Medical Centre, we offer specialised treatment for the conditions affecting older patients, as well as support such as footwear or insoles that help improve the patient’s wellbeing and independence.
We provide home visits for incapacitated patients who are unable to attend the clinic.
Diabetic Foot
Diabetic foot is a condition that occurs in people with diabetes in the form of infected wounds, loss of sensitivity and the frequent appearance of ulcers.
At Julia Álvarez centre, a podiatry clinic in Sotogrande, we are aware of the scale of the problem, which is why we prioritise prevention in order to avoid complications.
There is no professional more committed to the feet of our diabetic patients than the podiatrist, which is why regular check-ups are recommended in order to avoid higher-risk complications.
At our clinic, we carry out:
Circulatory-vascular study with echo-Doppler | Neurosensory study | Specialised biomechanical study of pressure distribution | Footwear therapy | Ulcer care.
