Foot Problems

Don't suffer with painful feet!


Painful feet? - you are not alone


If you suffer from painful feet you are far from being alone. Many people suffer from painful feet, but most wait until the pain becomes unbearable before affronting the problem. Our footwear specialists will be able to advise you on the best course of action for your individual needs and according to the severity of the foot pain or other problem.

Several ailments can lead to foot pain


There are multiple ailments that could be at the root of your foot problems, and because of this it is essential to firstly diagnose the problems correctly, as only then can the right solution be found, whether orthopaedic footwear or a simple orthotic.

Why do foot problems start?


The foot possesses an amazing support mechanism. However, the low arch, pronating foot is simply unable to support itself as this system fails. As force reaches its peak on the ball of the foot the heel lifts, the arch collapses and all supporting muscles and ligaments become susceptible to injury. Our feet support our whole body weight so when things go wrong this can cause problems elsewhere in the body. At the same time, changes in body posture can lead to problems in the feet.

Corns, bunions, fallen arches or heel pain


If you suffer from obvious foot problems such as corns, bunions, fallen arches or heel pain there is an 80% chance that you have or will develop a postural problem which can result in foot, hip, back and knee pain and eventually lead to 'wear and tear' arthritis. Our feet are more fundamental to our health than most people realize and treating them with care and respect will only benefit you in the long run.
