It’s more essential to take care of your feet and lower legs more than you ever know. These complex structures are designed to keep you moving and require special attention to ensure you keep moving at your best.
A podiatrist is your partner in healthcare that treats your feet and lower limbs condition. A podiatrist can help you if you are experiencing pain in your feet and lower legs that prevent you from moving as freely as you would like.
Podiatry contains two main categories: General foot care and biomechanical podiatry – for sore feet and legs. At Capital Podiatry we focus on biomechanical podiatry with a hands-on approach that differs from many other podiatrists’ methods. In focusing on biomechanical podiatry we understand that your feet are unique, and use the techniques that aim to get you back on your feet.
Capital Podiatry near Gordon offers tailored plans that ensure you get the most from your treatment. This may include foot mobilisation, shockwave therapy, dry needling, and biomechanical assessments depending on your goals and needs. We use hands-on therapy to help you feel better and get the best out of your problems, unlike other podiatrists.
Orthotics are not a one-size fits all approach. We use the latest technology to design and 3D print custom orthotics that support the natural shape of your feet, made just for you and only you.
Shockwave therapy stimulates your body’s natural processes to treat conditions such shin-splints or inflamed tendons, plantar fasciitis, and other ailments. Shockwave therapy is applied to the skin using a hand-held application. It does not require medication or surgery.
Warts are more common than you might think. Although they’ve traditionally been hard to get rid of, the latest technology known as Swift Microwave Therapy we use at Capital Podiatry aims to speed up the process.
If not treated properly, ingrown toenails can cause pain and even infection. We offer ingrown nail surgery for those with chronic ingrown toenails. This will allow you to get back into your favourite shoes in no time.
We’ll examine your feet and determine if your foot or heel pain is caused by high-impact exercise, tight muscles, poor walking, or any other reason.
Pain during and after running can really affect an active person like you who is passionate about running. We’ll take a customised approach to your running pain. This may include gait analysis and mobilisation as well as tailored remedial exercises.
If left untreated, fungal nails, which is an infection of the nail, bed and nail plate, can be hard to treat. Capital Podiatry will treat you with their Lunula Laser Treatment. This treatment can reduce the thickness of your toenails, clean them up, and decrease the risk of the infection spreading.
Plantar warts (tender lesions that are found at the bottom of the feet) can be painful. We aim to treat warts with Swift Microwave Therapy, the world’s leading wart treatment technology, in as few 30-minute sessions as possible.
Ingrown nails can cause pain and even lead to chronic problems. Ingrown nails can cause serious complications, especially for those with diabetes. Ingrown toenail removal can be done if you become unable to walk or are experiencing chronic pain.
Plantar fasciitis causes heel pain. It occurs when the thick band of tissue that connects the heel to the toes becomes inflamed, leading to pain near the heel that is often worse in the morning. There are many treatment choices, but custom orthotics might be an option to help distribute the pressure more evenly.
Bunions, which are bumps on the joint located between the big and little toes, can sometimes be found on the opposite part of your little tip. For treatment, you can try custom orthotics, or foot mobilisation.
Achilles tendonitis (also known as tendonitis or tendonitis of your heel) can lead to tenderness, pain, swelling, and reduced range of motion. We will assess your symptoms, goals, and lifestyle to develop a personalised treatment plan.
