Children’s Feet

As children grow and develop, it is not uncommon for them to experience foot related pain. We have experience dealing with in-toeing, Sever’s disease, Freiberg’s infraction, shin and knee pain, flat feet and more.

We understand the child developmental process and how to best manage child foot care, having had personal experience with similar issues growing up. Our treatment programs are designed to not just relieve pain but prevent permanent damage, and prevent re-injury.

Custom Foot Orthotics

Orthotics are custom-made medical devices designed to change abnormal walking patterns or offload painful structures within the foot. They provide support while standing, walking, and running, altering the loads and timing at which the foot progresses through the gait (walking/running) cycle. This allows damaged structures to recover - relieving pain, swelling and inflammation.

BodyFocused Podiatry use the latest technology in scanning, materials and orthotic manufacture to provide you with the most comfortable and effective foot orthotic on the market.

Nail Care

Having a medical professional take care of your nails is an essential service to those who suffer from frustrating or painful nail conditions.

Our podiatrists have a number of treatment techniques and years of experience to relieve symptoms associated with:

• Fungal nails
• Thickened tough nails
• Ingrown toenails

Sports Injuries

The levels of stress athletes and dancers put on their feet during competition and training are far greater than average. Understanding these demands is an important part of developing a customised treatment program for you.

We will carefully assess your injury and training workload to provide you with a plan to get you back to full fitness as soon as possible.

We regularly treat the following sports related injuries:

• Achilles Tendinopathy and Bursitis
• Plantar Fasciitis and Heel Spurs
• Heel Pain
• Shin Splints
• Repetitive Strain Injury
• Stress Fractures
• Recurrent Ankle Sprains
• Patella Femoral Syndrome

Plantar Warts

Warts can be a very painful and frustrating condition to suffer from. Many people choose to just ignore them as they do not always respond to conventional treatment options. However, due to their highly contagious nature we would recommend you seek intervention as early as possible.

At BodyFocused Podiatry we have multiple treatment options for warts. Some are pain free and are best suited to children, and for warts that have failed conventional treatment we use SWIFT, a revolutionary new treatment that sends pulses of microwave energy into the wart, heating up the water molecules and stimulating an immune response.
