Sport Podiatry with a Professional Sports Podiatrist Perth

Your ability to walk, run and perform sporting feats gracefully rely on the optimum function and movement of the your feet and legs.  Our perth sports podiatrist know your feet contain 33 joints that can be placed in a strong or weak mechanical position depending of the posture of your feet as you move. The foundation your feet provide to the rest of your leg can mean the difference between winning or losing, running faster over a longer distance or having to replace your knee and hip joints by 50.

Sports Podiatrists Help You Run Faster, Move Stronger and Train Safer

Sports podiatry is about removing inefficient and potentially damaging movement patterns from the feet and legs. Our Perth sports podiatrist can help you conserve energy and perform at your peak. Ensuring your feet are in a strong mechanical position to power you past the competition. Or even get into running for the first time.

It makes sense that when you move more efficiently you also minimise your risk of injuring muscles, ligaments, and joints. Because your muscles don’t need to work as hard they’re less likely to strain. Ligaments don’t need to stretch as far and potentially tear as muscles are no longer straining. Pain free movement during sport can be achieved when joints are not being held so tightly by strained muscles.

Check the alignment and observe your foot movement — visualising what happens when you stand and walk. This way, we will know the best way to approach the pain and the direction of the treatment.
