Foot, ankle and lower-limb care for athletes and active people at every level.

What we look at

A thorough, practical assessment

  • How the injury occurred and what you have already tried
  • Current training load, footwear and playing surface
  • Movement patterns, strength and joint mobility
  • What a successful return to activity looks like for you

    How we can help

    A plan that fits your circumstances

    • A staged plan rather than a one-size-fits-all protocol
    • Activity modification while you keep moving where it is safe
    • Progressive loading, footwear advice and supports as needed
    • Referral or imaging discussion if the assessment suggests it

    Conditions this service often supports

    This information is general and does not replace an individual assessment.

    Flat feet

    Flat feet are common and do not always cause problems. Assessment focuses on symptoms, movement and function rather than appearance alone.

    Shin splints

    Pain along the shin can be associated with training load, running mechanics and recovery. A detailed assessment helps rule out other causes and shape a return-to-activity plan.

    Achilles tendinopathy

    Achilles pain is often linked with changes in load and tendon capacity. Management may include activity modification, a progressive strengthening program and footwear advice.
