What Does a Podiatrist Do?
A podiatrist helps identify the cause of foot and lower limb problems and creates a personalised treatment plan to address them.
This may include:
- Assessing how you stand and walk
- Treating foot pain, heel pain and arch pain
- Managing sports and activity related injuries
- Providing biomechanical and gait assessments
- Prescribing custom orthotics or insoles
- Offering routine foot care and foot health advice
Podiatrists treat people of all ages and activity levels - from those with everyday foot discomfort to runners and active individuals looking to improve movement and prevent injury.
