Providing Chiropody Services

In chiropody practice, chiropodists/podiatrists assess, diagnose and treat diseases and abnormalities of the foot. Their work can vary greatly from patient to patient, depending on the problem. The aim of chiropody/podiatry services is to cure the patient's problem and where possible, prevent recurrence of existing foot problems or the development of new foot problems. Health promotion is another important aspect of the chiropodist's work.

Also the aim of providing chiropody services is to maintain and promote positive foot health and mobility within the local population by giving advice, screening, treatment of infections, removal of corns and callous, surgical corrections of nail problems, prescription of orthotics where appropriate, and general foot care by trained assistants for those who are unable to care for their own feet.

To seek a career in chiropody, you will need to go attend chiropody courses in order to become qualified to serve the members of the public as a chiropodist.
