Podiatry

It’s hard to be active when your feet hurt, and when there’s something wrong with your foot the rest of your body is affected. 

Think of feet like the foundations of a house, supporting the weight of everything north of your ankles.  The slightest problem with the bones and muscles of the foot can cause a chain reaction of adjustments in your posture and the way you walk….which can put stress on joints higher up in your body and lead to more serious problems.  Couple this with the fact that the average person takes around 8,000 steps a day, and I think you are starting the get the picture – your feet are worth looking after!

Our podiatrists can help you with all manner of foot problems including:

• Sports biomechanics, foot pain, achilles problems, knee injuries, hip and back pain
• Pediatric foot problems such as in-toeing (pigeon toed) and out-toeing (Charlie Chaplin walk)
• Diabetic foot care

And like everyone here at Capital Sports Medicine, our podiatrists will provide you with the most efficient and up to date treatments to keep you pain free and on the move.
