Our Services
We are your foot musculoskeletal experts, with the most comprehensive treatment programmes for treating heel pain.
Diagnosis and Education
Understanding the root cause of heel pain is vital. Our clinic focuses on educating patients about various conditions contributing to heel discomfort, offering clear insights into the diagnosis process. We aim to empower individuals by imparting knowledge that aids in identifying and comprehending the specific factors causing their heel pain.
Manual Therapy
Our clinic offers hands-on techniques as part of heel pain management. Through skilled manual therapy, we employ various specialised methods such as soft tissue mobilisation and joint manipulation. These techniques target specific areas contributing to heel pain, aiming to reduce tension, improve flexibility, and enhance overall foot function.
Dry Needling
Our clinic introduces Dry Needling, a specialised hands-on technique administered by our expert physiotherapists. Through the precise insertion of thin needles into trigger points, this non-invasive approach effectively addresses muscle tightness and discomfort associated with heel pain.
Taping, Padding and Compression Socks
These methods serve as supplementary support for heel pain management. Our clinic offers taping techniques, strategic padding, and compression socks tailored to alleviate discomfort. These interventions aim to provide immediate relief, reduce strain, and promote healing in conditions like plantar fasciitis, offering additional support alongside our comprehensive treatment plans.
Exercise Prescription
We customize exercise regimens tailored to alleviate heel pain and enhance foot health. Our specialized exercises target strengthening, flexibility, and stability, addressing the underlying issues triggering discomfort. These personalised routines are designed to complement treatment plans, aiding in recovery and preventing future occurrences of heel pain.
Orthotic Therapy
Our clinic provides custom-designed orthotics to support and alleviate heel pain caused by biomechanical imbalances. These orthotic solutions are crafted to suit individual foot structures, correcting alignment issues and offering the necessary cushioning and support. By utilising orthotic therapy, we aim to optimise foot function and mitigate the discomfort associated with heel conditions.
Shockwave Therapy
Utilizing focused sound waves, shockwave therapy is a non-invasive treatment for heel pain. This approach stimulates healing in affected tissues, reducing pain associated with conditions like plantar fasciitis or Achilles tendinopathy. Our clinic offers this proven method to accelerate healing and alleviate chronic heel discomfort effectively.
Footwear Education
Choosing the right footwear is key in managing heel pain. Our clinic offers guidance on selecting supportive shoes that alleviate discomfort. We provide tailored recommendations for footwear designed to offer stability and cushioning, empowering patients to make informed choices for relieving heel-related issues.
Night Splints
Our clinic offers custom-fit night splints to alleviate heel pain, especially associated with conditions like plantar fasciitis. These devices gently stretch foot tissues overnight, promoting flexibility and reducing morning discomfort and stiffness.
Immobilisation Boots
For severe cases of heel pain, particularly after injuries or trauma, our clinic provides immobilization boots. These specialized boots offer support and stability, allowing the affected area to rest and heal effectively. By restricting movement, these boots aid in reducing strain, promoting recovery, and minimizing discomfort associated with heel injuries or conditions.
Injection Therapy
Our clinic has established strong affiliations with accomplished sports physicians and orthopaedic surgeons who are proficient in administering specialised injections, including corticosteroids or platelet-rich plasma (PRP). These skilled professionals play a pivotal role in delivering minimally invasive treatments, specifically tailored to address persistent heel pain, such as that associated with conditions like plantar fasciitis, ensuring optimal care and effective relief for our patients.
Surgical Options
Our clinic maintains a close partnership with skilled orthopedic surgeons. This collaboration ensures comprehensive care for complex cases of heel pain. By working hand in hand with these specialists, we ensure a multidisciplinary approach to provide the best possible treatment options and care for our patients.
