SERVICES
To make a booking online please visit ezybook.co.nz and go to the Albany City Podiatry page for a list of available appointments.
Biomechanical and Gait Assessments: I will assess the way your body functions during ambulation whether it be walking or running, to determine any part that may be either; out of alignment, restricted in movement or imbalanced. I can then build a picture as to why you may be getting pain and work with you on how to resolve it.
Orthotic Therapy: This is where I prescribe a device that inserts into your footwear to help alter the way your feet function, giving you added support, enhanced cushioning and relieving your aches and pains. These devices should never be uncomfortable and I like to pride myself on making sure that you are completely happy with your device so that you wear it.
Footwear Advice: Many people are wearing the wrong kind of footwear. I will not dictate to you what shoes you should wear, but I will give you invaluable advice on what to look for when shopping for shoes so that you can make a more informed choice for your beloved feet.
Exercise Prescription Advice: There are 107 ligaments and 5 layers of muscles in each foot!!! Most of which are quite small and inefficiently used. I will help educate you on specialised foot exercises to help strengthen your feet to carry you about easily everyday.
General Podiatric Care: If your heels are cracking or you have other areas of intense hard skin, the best way to resolve it is to come and have your feet 'debrided' (a process of skillfully removing the hard skin).
Corns are areas mainly on the soles of your feet (or between your toes) that hurt when you weight bear and feel like a stone or like something in your foot. These are easily removed and you will be instantly relieved of your pain!!! I Promise.
If you have trouble cutting your own nails because you cant; reach or see them or they are a 'funny shape', then I can help. I have specialised equipment to easily get your nails looking and feeling better.
