Foot Pain

Main work is in the field of podiatric biomechanics, sports & musculoskeletal podiatry with a particular focus on running injuries, heel pain and Achilles Tendon pain. We offer a specialist shockwave treatment service as an evidence-based and effective treatment to help with such injuries as well as providing an advanced clinical gait analysis service and exercise plans.

We see patients from the surrounding running clubs, dance schools, rugby and football clubs, professional & non-professional sports personnel, for various foot, ankle and knee related issues. We have excellent referral networks with many private and NHS clinics and are always looking to build on these.

We are members of Gait & Motion Clinics and we have a strong focus on using the latest pressure and force mapping technology to analyse foot function in greater detail (https://rsscan.com/). Where required we combine this analysis with the latest in 3D-printed Phits Orthotics – as worn by elite runners and athletes but made accessible to our patients. Our orthotics are specialist & uniquely designed devices. These are based on detailed biomechanical analysis of foot function and actual dynamic gait parameters not just a static plaster cast (traditional method).

Using the latest technology allows us to understand the problem better, engages our patients with their findings and results in a strong platform for successful patient outcomes.
