Looking for an experienced podiatrist in Melbourne CBD? Step right up to Collins Place.

What is a Podiatrist (And Should You See One)?

Bearing a significant amount of the body’s weight, your feet are much like the foundations of a building. If they are structurally sound, they shouldn’t cause any problems. But if they’re not in good shape, the whole thing will come crashing down. In the body, this means other structures will overcompensate for any lower limb dysfunction, leading to biomechanical imbalances, referred pain and possibly even headaches.

Thankfully, there is a whole field dedicated to the health of your feet—podiatry. Skilled healthcare professionals, podiatrists diagnose, treat and assist in the prevention of foot, ankle and lower limb conditions. On any day, they’ll see a diverse mix of patients with a range of musculoskeletal, circulatory and neurological disorders affecting the feet.

If you are experiencing pain or have any of the following conditions, book an appointment with our Melbourne CBD podiatrist:

• Toe, foot or ankle pain
• Heel pain (or plantar fasciitis)
• Over-pronation (flat feet)
• Diabetes and circulatory conditions
• Arthritis
• Skin problems
• Nail conditions
• Gait abnormalities
• Balance problems
