Podiatry Oxley
Expert podiatrists who have a wealth of knowledge and are ready to help you get back on your feet.
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 an allied health practitioner who aims to treat conditions affecting the feet and lower limbs. 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 major categories of podiatry include general foot care and biomechanical podiatry for sore legs and feet. Capital Podiatry focuses on biomechanical podiatry. We have a hands-on approach to podiatry that is unique among 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.
Treatment Techniques
Capital Podiatry near Oxley uses tailored treatment plans to ensure you get the best out of your treatment. You may need foot mobilisation, shockwave, dry needling, or biomechanical assessments, depending on your individual needs. Additionally, unlike many general podiatrists, we use hands-on therapy so that we get a real feel for your concerns and make sure we address them as efficiently as we can.
Our Podiatry Services Near Oxley
CUSTOM ORTHOTICS
Orthotics aren’t a one size fits all solution. We use the best technology to 3D-print custom orthotics that are made specifically for you.
SWIFT WART TREATMENT
Warts are more common than you might think. The Swift Microwave Therapy, which Capital Podiatry uses, is a new technology that speeds up the removal of warts.
SHOCKWAVE THERAPY
Shockwave therapy stimulates your body’s natural processes to treat conditions such shin-splints or inflamed tendons, plantar fasciitis, and other ailments. The aim of shockwave therapy is to accelerate healing without the need for medication, needles, or surgery.
INGROWN TOENAIL SURGERY
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.
What We Treat
FOOT AND HEEL PAIN
We can determine whether your heel or foot pain is due to high-impact exercises, tight muscles, walking style, or a combination of both.
INGROWN NAILS
Ingrown toenails may be painful or even chronic. This means that the ingrown nail will keep recurring. Complications can occur from ingrown nails, especially for people with diabetes, so it’s important to seek treatment. Ingrown toenail removal can be done if you become unable to walk or are experiencing chronic pain.
RUNNING PAIN
Pain during and after running can really affect an active person like you who is passionate about running. Our tailored treatment for running pain will include gait analysis, mobilisation, as well as customised remedial exercises.
PLANTAR FASCIITIS
Plantar fasciitis is a common cause of pain in the heel. 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.
FUNGAL NAILS
If left untreated, fungal nails, which is an infection of the nail, bed and nail plate, can be hard to treat. 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, 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. There are two main options for treatment: custom orthotics and foot mobilisation.
WARTS
Plantar warts, which are usually located on the bottom of your foot, can cause tenderness or pain when you place weight on them. Swift Microwave Therapy (the world’s best wart treatment technology) is used to treat warts. It can be done in just 30 minutes.
ACHILLES TENDONITIS
Achilles tendonitis, also known as tendonitis in the heel, can cause tenderness and pain that can reduce mobility and flexibility. To create a customised treatment plan, we assess your lifestyle and objectives.
