Sports Podiatry

Sports Podiatry

Sports podiatry focuses on the assessment, treatment and prevention of foot, ankle and lower-limb pain related to sport, training and physical activity. We assess how your feet, ankles, knees and hips work together to identify factors that may be contributing to pain, overload or injury.

Whether you are a runner, athlete, gym-goer or simply active, our goal is to reduce pain, improve movement and support a safe return to activity.

Our Support Podiatry service focuses on managing discomfort, improving mobility, and maintaining overall foot health. We assess your condition, provide targeted care, and offer practical support to help reduce pain and prevent further issues, ensuring long-term comfort and stability.

Running Gait Analysis

Running gait analysis assesses how your body moves from the hip to the toes during walking or running. It can help identify movement patterns, load issues, asymmetry or biomechanical factors that may be contributing to pain or injury.
