It’s more essential to take care of your feet and lower legs more than you ever know. These complex structures help you stay up and move, so they need to be looked after.
A podiatrist is your partner in healthcare that treats your feet and lower limbs condition. A podiatrist could be of great service if you experience pain in your feet or lower legs that restricts your ability to move around as much as you like.
Two main types of podiatry are general foot care, and biomechanical podiatry (for sore feet and legs). Capital Podiatry’s focus is on biomechanical podiatry. Our hands-on approach differs from that of many other podiatrists. We recognise that every person’s feet are different and we use the biomechanical podiatry methods to help you get back on your feet.
Capital Podiatry near Isabella provides tailored treatment plans to ensure you get the best possible treatment. This may include foot mobilisation, shockwave therapy, dry needling, and biomechanical assessments depending on your goals and needs. We also use hands-on therapy, which is not common among general podiatrists. This allows us to get to know you and your concerns, and ensures that we do our best to address them.
Orthotics are far from 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. They are difficult to eliminate, but Capital Podiatry’s Swift Microwave Therapy technology aims to speed things up.
Ingrown toenails are painful and can lead to infection if not treated. Ingrown toenail surgery can be a great option for you if you have a persistent ingrown toenail/s.
We can determine whether your heel or foot pain is due to high-impact exercises, tight muscles, walking style, or a combination of both.
When you’re an active person who loves to run, pain during or after running can really get you down. Our customised approach to this condition may include gait analysis, mobilisation and tailored remedial exercises to help you get back on your feet.
Fungal nails (an infection of the nail and nail bed) can be very difficult to mend if it’s not addressed right away. Capital Podiatry may be able to offer a Lunula Laser treatment. We can also trim your toenails and prevent the infection from spreading.
Plantar warts are rough lesions usually found on the bottom of the foot which may cause pain or tenderness when you put weight on them. Swift Microwave Therapy, which is the world’s most popular wart treatment process, will be used to treat warts within as little time as possible.
Ingrown nails can cause pain and even lead to chronic problems. Complications can occur from ingrown nails, especially for people with diabetes, so it’s important to seek treatment. We can perform ingrown nail surgery if your condition gets so severe that you cannot wear certain shoes or have difficulty walking. It may take as little as 45 minutes.
Plantar fasciitis, a common cause for heel pain, is typical. Plantar fasciitis is a condition where the thick band of tissue connecting the heel and the toes becomes inflamed. This causes pain near the heel that can often be worse in the morning. While there are many treatments available, custom orthotics may be an option. They can help spread the pressure on your feet 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. Custom orthotics and foot mobilization are possible options.
Achilles tendonitis, otherwise known as tendonitis of the heel, tends to cause pain, tenderness, or swelling that may reduce your range of motion and flexibility. We will assess your symptoms, goals, and lifestyle to develop a personalised treatment plan.
