Foot pain is sometimes not just about the foot at all. It can be linked to the way your muscles, joints, tendons and bones work together when you walk, stand and move. When something in that system is not working as efficiently as it should, it can lead to aches, pains and discomfort. Our Podiatrists are highly skilled at assessing lower limb biomechanics and helping identify what may be contributing to the problem.

During your assessment, we will look at how your feet and ankles move, how well they function, and whether things such as limb length differences, knee alignment or other factors could be affecting the way you move. We take a thorough look at the whole picture and then explain our findings in plain English, helping you understand what may be causing your symptoms and why.

There are a range of treatment options available, depending on your individual needs. We may recommend orthotics, which we can provide, and/or a personalised exercise programme designed specifically for you.
