Podiatry is the diagnosis, treatment, rehabilitation and prevention of health complaints of the feet, ankles and lower limbs. Podiatrists in Australia complete a bachelor degree and spend up to four years training, so they are the most qualified people to consult about concerns of the lower limbs. Whether you have pain in these areas, or a pesky problem such as warts or corns, a podiatrist may be able to help you. They can also help athletes to improve performance and function using podiatry techniques such as joint mobilising, bio-mechanical re-training & strengthening exercises.
Podiatry can help people of all ages and abilities. For example, if your healthy, active lifestyle is being held back by foot or lower limb concerns, a podiatrist at Upwell can help.
