​This year’s theme for Foot Week is ‘Podiatrists are Foot Health Experts.

Podiatrist's assess, treat and keep you on your feet.  The theme highlights the important role that Podiatrist play in keeping people active and healthy.  Podiatrists are trained professionals who can help with a number of different conditions. From nail and skin conditions such as painful corns, ingrown toenails and warts, to injuries such as heel pain and achilles tendinopathy.

In addition to this, Podiatrists can play an important role in identifying health conditions such as circulatory issues, heart conditions and diabetes. The 2022 Australian Foot Health Survey found that almost 2 in 5 Australians who visited a Podiatrist had other serious health conditions identified by the Podiatrist.  Visiting your local Podiatrist is not only a proactive way to manage you foot and general health, but it can also save lives.

Foot week signifies the perfect time to get your feet assessed by a Podiatrist, whether it be for a general check-up, or to address any niggles that may be affecting your ability to exercise or undertake daily activities. A Podiatrist can provide a swift and accurate diagnosis, and create an effective and personalised management plan.

At Active Podiatry we treat and manage a number of foot and lower limb conditions. We provide general nail and skin care, footwear fittings, treadmill gait analysis, dry needling and orthotic and exercise prescription. We also conduct diabetes foot assessments, ingrown toe nail surgeries and swift microwave treatment for warts.

Check in with your feet this Foot Week and book in with your Podiatrist today to priorities your foot health.
