55 Plus

As we get older, a lifetime of walking and keeping active can start catching up with us and our bones, joints and muscles and may not perform in the same way.

Arthritis & Diabetes

Arthritis and diabetes are both systemic conditions that have adverse - and often uncomfortable or painful - effects on the body. While some damage cannot be reversed, it can be managed so you can remain as comfortable as possible on your feet.

Athletes

From kids excelling in their chosen sports to professional players, we work with a number of talented sportsmen and women to help them optimise their performance of the field, court, track, or wherever they perform!

Biomechanical Examination

A biomechanical examination is a comprehensive assessment of the joints, bones, muscles and ligaments of the feet, legs and pelvis, relating to your issue or injury. We analyse the way your body functions together to get you moving and feeling steady on your feet. By assessing what is and isn’t working effectively.

Dry Needling

Dry needling is a great way to address tight or restricted muscles. It is also effective in managing localised pain, where fine needles are used to release painful knots present in the muscles.

Footwear Assessment

Given that most of us spend all day in shoes, it is very important to have the right, supportive and comfortable shoes to keep you going throughout the day.

General Foot Care

Over time, and under certain circumstances, caring for your feet, nails and skin can become very difficult. Nails grow thicker, skin becomes harder, and feet can become more difficult to reach.

Injury & Pain Management

Pain and injuries should never be put up with or ignored. Effectively managing injuries and pain is important to stop them from getting worse or returning in the future.

Kids Foot & Leg Problems

Kids are always growing and changing - but that doesn’t mean they should be in pain. If you’re worried about your kids’ feet, their development or anything unusual you’ve noticed, you’ve come to the perfect place.

Medical Pedicure

We help your feet and nails feel fantastic with our safe, sterile and professional medical pedicures. Enjoyed by men and women of all ages.

Neurovascular Assessments

Maintaining a healthy level of blood flow and sensation to our feet is crucial for our health and well-being, regardless of our age or medical conditions.

Orthotics

Orthotics can help to improve the way you move, help heal injured muscles and tissues, alleviate pressure from painful foot surfaces and significantly improve your quality of life.

Running Assessment

Remaining injury-free as a runner is a task only a very small proportion of people are able to achieve and that’s exactly what we help you do. By optimising your running technique so your feet and legs.

Shockwave Treatment

Shockwave is an innovative and effective way to reduce pain, inflammation and stimulate the body’s healing and repair process. It’s non-invasive and uses acoustic and kinetic energy to achieve this.

Splints & Braces

Certain injuries or conditions require that extra level of control to optimally position or control the movement of feet and legs. We have a range of splints and braces available precisely for this purpose.

Stretching & Strengthening Prescription

Stretching and strengthening exercises are so much more than just a daily routine or general advice - they work to strengthen and lengthen crucial muscles throughout the body. In turn, these muscles stabilise the surrounding structures.

Toenail Surgery

Ingrown toenails can be extremely painful and carry a significant risk of infection if not effectively managed. We offer a number of solutions for ingrown toenails, including permanent surgical correction.

Workers

When your job involves standing for long hours, the last thing you need is foot or leg pain or discomfort holding you back. We work with a number of treatment modalities to help keep you feeling comfortable and stable on your feet throughout long shifts, on hard surfaces, while climbing stairs, and whatever else your work involves.
