About Feet

Directions

Charmaine Barnes, BSc. Pod. Med., M. Ch. S., S. R. Ch, is an HPC Registered Podiatrist/Chiropodist with over 30 years experience.

Her speciality is taking a proactive approach to foot health. It is possible to book appointments in surgery or by contacting us on Facebook or by telephoning 02893360049. About Feet offers the possibility to book both evening appointments and home visits (upon request), as well as appointments to visit nursing homes. When treating clients at home or in a nursing home, our aim is to improve comfort and independence without compromise. About Feet has a compact but adequate set-up to ensure clients are treated with the same quality of care they would get in a private consultation room. To prevent cross-infection and safe transportation between locations, all instruments are individually packed and sterilised in separate, single-use bags so that only sterilised instruments are used for each client. About Feet treats a range of foot and lower limb conditions, with their priority being to change the way people think about their feet. They aim to minimise ongoing problems and provide customers with optimal foot health, which they believe leads to improved overall health and well-being. About Feet also offers nail surgery; nail reconstruction; biomechanical assessment; orthoses; and podiatric acupuncture in addition to standard routine foot care. The clinic is located on the ground floor, with off-street parking being available. It is beside Carrickfergus train and bus station and is a short walk from the centre of Carrickfergus and its associated amenities.

✂️ Toenails becoming a bit of a challenge?

It's something that can creep up on us.

Maybe bending down isn't as easy as it used to be.
Perhaps your nails have become thicker or harder to manage.

Or you've previously had regular NHS podiatry appointments and are now looking for someone to continue your care.

Whatever the reason, there's no need to struggle with them yourself. 👣

At About Feet, Charmaine can help with routine nail care and assess troublesome toenails.

You can visit us on Victoria Street, or ask about our home visit service if getting to the clinic is difficult. 🏠

A little regular attention can make a real difference to everyday comfort. 💛

🎃🍂 Just a wee note to let everyone know that I'll be taking next week off for a little city break with my son. 💛

We'll get back to any messages and enquiries as soon as we can on our return.

Thank you, as always, for your understanding and continued support. It really does mean so much. Wishing you all a lovely Halloween, whatever you have planned! 🎃👣

See you when I'm back!

💛 Are you helping Mum or Dad look after their feet?

Perhaps they've always had their toenails cared for through the NHS, but those regular appointments have now stopped.

Or maybe they're finding it harder to bend down, reach their feet or manage their own nail care.

It's something we hear about from families regularly.

At About Feet, Charmaine provides friendly, professional foot care for older patients, helping with troublesome nails, corns, hard skin and other common foot concerns. 👣

And if getting to the clinic is difficult, we can come to them. 🏠

Our home visits can make life that little bit easier for patients and the family members helping to care for them.

Sometimes it's the small things that make a big difference to someone's comfort.

💛 A little something different from me today...

I've come to realise just how important it is to keep moving, maintain flexibility and look after my body. 👣

I've learned that looking after myself means adapting, being consistent and finding movements that work for me.

These exercises are part of that journey. 💪

I thought I'd start sharing a few little videos of what I personally do to help maintain my flexibility, strength and muscle tone. I'm hoping to share more over time. These are simply things I've incorporated into my own routine as part of making positive changes to my lifestyle.

Working as a podiatrist, I spend so much of my time helping other people stay comfortable and mobile. But I've also learned how important it is to look after myself along the way.

And if sharing a little of my own experience encourages someone else to make time for their wellbeing, then that's a lovely bonus. 💛

Here's to keeping ourselves moving, whatever our age!

Charmaine x 👣

* This is just a little glimpse into my personal routine, rather than exercises intended for everyone. Always choose movements that are appropriate for your own health and abilities.
