How Podiatry May Help You
Caring for your feet and lower legs is much more important than you may think. These intricate structures work hard to keep you moving. They require specific attention and care in order to be at their best.
A Canberra podiatrist is your partner in healthcare that treats your feet and lower limbs condition. If you feel pain or discomfort in your feet, or your lower legs that makes it challenging to move as you want, a podiatrist might be able to assist.
Podiatry contains two main categories: General foot care and biomechanical podiatry – for sore feet and legs. Capital Podiatry focuses on biomechanical podiatry. We have a hands-on approach to podiatry that is unique among other podiatrists. Biomechanical podiatry allows us to understand your feet and provide the best approaches to get you back on your feet.
Treatment Techniques
At Capital Podiatry near Monash we use tailored treatment plans so you’ll get the most out of your treatment. You may need foot mobilisation, shockwave, dry needling, or biomechanical assessments, depending on your individual needs. Additionally, unlike some general podiatrists, we work with you directly to understand your concerns and address them as quickly as possible.
Our Podiatry Services Near Monash
CUSTOM ORTHOTICS
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.
SWIFT WART TREATMENT
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.
SHOCKWAVE THERAPY
Shockwave therapy stimulates the body’s own processes in an effort to treat conditions such as shin splints, inflamed ligaments, plantar fasciitis, and more. The aim of shockwave therapy is to accelerate healing without the need for medication, needles, or surgery.
INGROWN TOENAIL SURGERY
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.
What We Treat
HEEL & FOOT PAIN
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.
INGROWN NAILS
Ingrown toenails are painful and can even become recurring. 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.
RUNNING PAIN
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.
PLANTAR FASCIITIS
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. Treatment options will vary, but custom orthotics may be a good choice for you to distribute the pressure on your feet more evenly.
FUNGAL NAILS
Fungal nails– an infection of the nail, nail bed, and nail plate– can take months to control if left untreated. See us at Capital Podiatry as soon as possible, where we may use our Lunula Laser treatment plus work to reduce toenail thickness, tidy up your toenails, and reduce the chance of the infection spreading.
BUNIONS
Bunions are a bump on the joint typically next to the big toe, and sometimes on the opposite side of the foot at the little toe. Treatment options may include custom orthotics or foot mobilisation.
WARTS
Plantar Warts are a type of rough lesion that is usually found on the sole of the foot. They can cause pain if you put weight on them. Swift Microwave Therapy is the most effective wart treatment technology in the world. We aim to treat warts in as little as 30 minutes.
ACHILLES TENDONITIS
Achilles tendonitis also known as tendonitis at the heel or tendonitis on the heel can cause pain, tenderness or swelling. This may affect your flexibility and range of motion. We assess your symptoms, lifestyle, and purposes to create a tailored treatment plan.
