Why see a Podiatrist?
It’s easy to underestimate the role of our feet, but when we think about how long we spend on our feet all day, it’s not hard to see why it’s so important to look after this part of our body.
Podiatrists are university trained health professionals who deal exclusively with the feet and the lower limbs. This includes disciplines such as paediatrics (children), general podiatry such as ingrown toenails, diabetic care, sports injuries, gait analysis, the elderly, post-surgical podiatry and general foot care.
Do I need orthotics?
As well as a comprehensive range of treatments we also offer custom orthotics using foot scanning and milling technology.
Your Gold Coast Podiatrist may suggest an orthotic to treat your foot, knee or ankle concern. Before your orthotics can be manufactured your Podiatrist will first perform a biomechanical assessment of your lower limbs. This is important to ensure that your orthotic prescription is accurate. This assessment will investigate your flexibility, muscle strength, posture and walking patterns.
