Sound familiar?

You've tried everything. Here's why it's not working.

Salicylic acid from the chemist

Tried it for weeks. Same result.

Freeze spray at home

It came back. Again.

Months of waiting

Maybe years. Still there.

Avoiding the pool

Socks in summer. Hiding your feet.

There's a reason over-the-counter treatments don't always work — and it's not your fault. Verrucas are caused by HPV. Most topical treatments attack the surface but don't destroy the virus. Swift does.

What is Swift – and why does it work when nothing else has?

Swift is a clinically proven, UK-developed microwave therapy used by podiatrists to treat verrucas at their source. A precise burst of microwave energy is delivered to the affected tissue, triggering your immune system to recognise and destroy the HPV virus.

Call us and we'll book your verruca assessment — often the same week. Your podiatrist examines the verruca in person, talks you through every option, and recommends the best approach for you.

Your first Swift session

~30 minutes


We deliver your first Swift treatment. Brief, sharp warmth — no anaesthetic needed.

Sessions 2 & 3

every 3–4 weeks


Your immune system responds between sessions. Visible changes. We monitor progress.

Clear feet

typically 9–12 weeks total


Verruca gone. Back in the pool, back in your trainers. Done.

From first appointment to clear feet:  Typically 9–12 weeks.  Compare that to 12+ months of failed home treatment.

✓ Swift is safe and effective for children — popular with school-age patients.

What our Swift patients say

"My daughter had a verruca for nearly two years. We'd tried every treatment going — nothing worked. After three sessions at City Centre Chiropody, it's completely gone. I wish we'd found Swift sooner."

Sarah M. Parent

"I booked online on Monday and had my first appointment on Wednesday — lunchtime, city centre. Couldn't have been easier. Three sessions and it's completely clear."

James T. Working professional

"The verruca was starting to affect my training. The team were brilliant — explained everything clearly, the treatment was fast, and I was back to normal activity straight away."

Karen B. Runner

Common questions about Swift treatment

  • Does Swift treatment hurt?

    A brief, sharp warmth lasting one or two seconds — comfort is a momentary thing. No lasting pain, no recovery time. Back to normal straight away.

  • How many sessions will I need?

    Most patients need three sessions, three to four weeks apart. At your assessment we'll give a realistic picture for your case.

  • Is Swift suitable for children?

    Yes. Safe for children, often the best option for young patients. Quick, no wound, straight back to school.

  • How much does Swift cost?

    Swift is a premium, results-focused treatment, and the right plan depends on what the podiatrist finds — so we go through costs with you at your assessment, once your verruca has been examined and your options explained.

  • What if it doesn't work for me?

    80% clearance rate — significantly higher than any over-the-counter alternative. At assessment we'll confirm suitability and set realistic expectations.

  • Do I need a referral?

    No — you can book directly with us, no referral needed.
