Podiatry for Pain & Injury

Getting you back on your feet

Lower limb pain can be frustrating & debilitating, and our number one goal is to get you back on your feet. Elise will take a thorough, whole body approach to treating your pain- digging deep to find the root cause. Ultimately, helping you understand what’s going on and what can be done to get you moving & feeling better.

BIOMECHANICAL ASSESSMENT

What is it?

When we do a biomechanical assessment, we’re looking at how well your muscles, joints, and nerves are working together. It’s not just about your feet—we consider how your whole body moves and whether things like posture, hip alignment, compensations affecting functional movement or all of it, may linked to what’s happening in your lower legs.

Initial Assessment

This is a thorough assessment of the body as a whole in regards to any concerns, pain or general check of the lower limb. We will integrate a treatment, plan and you will receive a personalised report with exercise intervention after the consult. A 60-90 minute in clinic appointment and approximately 30 minutes behind the scenes tailoring report and treatment plan.

If you feel you have multiple presentations or more than one problem the 60 minutes can extend 15 minute incrementally at approximately $40 per 15 minutes. Click here for more details on appointment types and which is best for you.

Elise is extensively trained in various biomechanical models – from static, dynamic to functional movement. Elise being a keen runner all of her life has further interest and experience in running rehabilitation. Treatments from further studies include but are not only exclusive to: Foot mobilisation therapy, stecco fascial manipulation (1), dry needling, injection therapies, exercise script and loading programs as well as low level laser therapy.

Follow-up Biomechanical

Consult Appointments

Consultation-style appointments ensure I’m providing a thorough assessment of your concern. Quick appointments are limiting and typically focus on the concern only at face-value. I believe that lasting results come from taking the time to look at the bigger picture. Elise has over 10+ years experience and has finished multiple ongoing studies, leading her to a unique approach to functional Podiatry.

Pilates-Certified

Our entire body is connected, and discomfort in one area often stems from another. With that in mind, I completed a Pilates certification to better treat my patients. Alongside manual therapies, I can prescribe exercises to build strength and balance throughout the body.

Natural Footwear

Modern footwear can limit natural foot function. My podiatry style integrates manual therapies, exercise and low level laser therapy to treat your concerns. So that when you’re ready, you can step away from the limitations of modern footwear and orthotics.

Interest in Biomechanics

My desire to approach podiatry from a holistic point of view has lead me to gain further education on the body as a whole. With an understanding of the entire body, I can move past the foot and ankle- connecting the dots to the source of your concern.
