Our Heel Clinic Podiatry Services
We offer various Podiatry treatments and services to get your feet feeling better, including:
Heel Pain
We help to diagnose and treat all things related to heel pain, whether it’s from being on your feet all day, a sporting injury, general wear and tear, kids with growing heel pain, or you are struggling with plantar fasciitis.
Shockwave Therapy
Shockwave Therapy, or Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy, is a safe, non-invasive and effective treatment for pain in the feet, ankles and lower leg. It offers pain relief and accelerates the healing process. It is effective in treating plantar fasciitis and Achilles tendinopathy.
Orthotic Therapy
Orthotics can be part of your overall treatment plan to help improve mobility and reduce pain. We have extensive experience in using orthotics to treat various foot and leg problems. Many orthotic options are available, from 3D scanning technology for 100% custom orthotics to medical-grade prefabricated orthotics. We will help you decide which is right for you.
Prolotherapy
A regenerative treatment that stimulates natural healing, this minimally invasive procedure involves injecting a solution to strengthen weakened ligaments and tendons, potentially reducing pain and improving joint stability without surgery. Prolotherapy can be an effective treatment option for heel or Achilles pain, particularly in cases of chronic Achilles tendinopathy or plantar fasciitis.
Diagnostic Ultrasound
Diagnostic ultrasound is a valuable tool that enables more precise diagnoses of the cause of heel pain. It is non-invasive and radiation-free, allowing us to assess your foot during movement dynamically through real-time imaging. The immediate results enable prompt treatment and potentially avoid unnecessary intervention as it helps us to differentiate between various causes of heel pain that may mimic plantar fasciitis.
Gait Analysis
Making sure your feet function pain-free is of great importance. The foot is a complex structure, and if your feet are not operating as well as they could, the result is pain. The pain can be in the foot itself. However, it can radiate to other parts of the body, such as the knee, hip and lower back. Conducting a thorough biomechanical assessment, including video gait analysis, is a crucial part of this.
Sports Podiatry
Whether you’re running a long-distance event such as a marathon or taking a leisurely stroll, you need strong, healthy, pain-free feet to continue enjoying any kind of sport or activity. It is common for injuries and foot pain to occur no matter what your fitness level. Overuse, poor posture and many other factors can cause foot pain. I can help you return to your exercise routine and normal everyday activity sooner with my comprehensive diagnosis and quality treatment.
