1st UK Clinic Offering Cryosurgery with over 20,000 Cases Treated
Cryosurgery is a modern form of treatment for Morton’s Neuroma, which offers patients a minimally invasive, clinic-based procedure with a high success rate and no risk of stump neuroma.
We like to think of Cryosurgery as wiping the slate clean, and returning your nerve to how it was before the neuroma occured. Due to the accuracy and precision used during the Cryosurgery treatment, we are able to selectively target and cause the breakdown of the thickened neuroma tissue, leaving the affected nerve unharmed and undamaged. The subsequent tissue breakdown and reabsorption, will leave you with an intact, healthy, fully-functioning nerve. Just how it was before the neuroma developed.

Cryosurgery involves the use of a cryoprobe which at its tip forms a 6-8mm ice ball that reaches temperatures as low as -67°C. The cryoprobe tip destroys nerve tissue by causing extensive vascular damage to the nerve sheath capillaries. This then causes demyelinazation (breakdown of the myelin sheath) and degeneration of the axon.
For many years Mr Weaver had felt sympathy for those patients who had unsuccessfully tried all the existing remedies for their Morton’s Neuroma symptoms. Such patients were faced with the choice of either living with their foot pain or having standard surgery which could make matters worse.
We felt that Morton’s neuroma patients in the UK should have access to the alternative treatment of cryosurgery which is effective and safe. To this end, he completed his cryosurgical training in the U.S with one of the world’s most experienced cryosurgery trainers. On his return to the UK, Mr Weaver has continued to work with American colleagues to develop and refine the technique further.
Since introducing Podiatric cryosurgery into the UK in 2008, we have now completed thousands of cryosurgery treatments for both Morton’s Neuroma and Plantar Fasciitis and is pleased to have been able to help so many people with their pain.
With nearly 15 years of Morton’s Neuroma cryosurgery behind us, we are now the most experienced Podiatric cryosurgery clinic outside of North America.
