Forefoot
The forefoot includes the toes and the ball of the foot, and it often bears the brunt of your daily activities. Podiatrists treat a wide range of forefoot conditions, such as bunions, hammertoes, neuromas, corns, and calluses. Whether caused by improper footwear, genetics, or repetitive stress, issues in the forefoot can cause discomfort and impact mobility. Our specialists are here to provide tailored care to get you back on your feet.
Midfoot
The midfoot forms the arch of the foot and provides essential support and stability during movement. Problems like flat feet, high arches, arthritis, and stress fractures can lead to pain or difficulty walking. Our podiatry team offers expert diagnosis and customized treatment options to relieve pain and restore proper function to your midfoot.
Hindfoot
The hindfoot includes the heel, ankle, and Achilles tendon—critical areas for movement and weight-bearing. Conditions such as plantar fasciitis, heel spurs, ankle sprains, and Achilles tendonitis are common sources of pain in this area. With a focus on advanced therapies and rehabilitation, our podiatrists help you recover and regain confidence in your stride.
Our experienced podiatrists provide comprehensive foot and ankle care, treating conditions such as plantar fasciitis, tendonitis, and skeletal injuries.
​Plantar Fasciitis
​
Plantar fasciitis and plantar fibromas are conditions that causes pain in the sole of the foot and heel. The Plantar Fascia is a thick, web-like ligament that connects the heel to the front of the foot. If it is overused or stressed, it can become inflamed and cause severe discomfort and pain.
Heel pain, especially stabbing heel pain, is most often caused by plantar fasciitis, a condition that is sometimes also called heel spur syndrome when a spur is present. Heel pain may also be due to other causes, such as a stress fracture, tendonitis, arthritis, nerve irritation, or, rarely, a cyst.
Because there are several potential causes, it is important to have heel pain properly diagnosed, to distinguish between all the possibilities and determine the underlying source of your heel pain.
​​
Plantar Fibroma
​
Low Dose X-ray Therapy is a non-invasive and precise approach to treating plantar fasciitis. It involves the application of low-energy x-rays directly to the affected area, stimulating the body's natural healing processes. The therapy focuses on reducing inflammation and promoting tissue regeneration, offering a potential breakthrough for those seeking more effective and lasting relief.
Tendonitis
​
​Tendons, ligaments and muscles are essential components of your body, enabling basic movements and activities. It's crucial to remain informed about their condition and take proactive steps to maintain their health. If you require medical attention or guidance, don't hesitate to contact us today.
​
An Achilles tendonitis injury occurs when you overuse the tendon connecting your calf muscles to your heel bone. Typical symptoms encompass pain, swelling, stiffness around the heel, and loss of range of motion.
Runners and those in sports involving running, jumping, or abrupt movements might feel pain if they stretch their tendons too much. Specific actions can worsen a problem that frequently arises. To effectively address this condition, it is advisable to incorporate rest and modify activities. However, a precise diagnosis and suitable treatment plan from a medical professional are equally essential.
​
Skeletal Injuries
​​​
Bone-related conditions can range from minor discomfort to severe mobility challenges, requiring specialized attention and care. Our experienced podiatrists are equipped to diagnose and treat a variety of issues affecting your skeletal health. If you're experiencing pain or suspect a problem, don’t wait—reach out to us today for expert support and treatment.
