25.01.2022 Are your high heels causing you pain at work? High heels are a necessity for many occupations, yet they have been shown to: Significantly increase the pressure on your forefoot... Compromise your stability Increase your risk of falls Rotate your pelvis, increasing the curvature of your spine Shift the position of your knees in hips to one that places more pressure on the inside of your knee We can help you wear high heels more comfortably by helping manage any pains and problems that are being exacerbated by your high heels.

18.01.2022 Why are shoes with adjustable fastening (laces, velcro, buckle) much better than slip-ons for kids? They: Secure the shoe to the foot so the toes do not claw to grip the shoe Allow you to adjust the shoe when your child grows Give the foot and ankle the most support, step after step... As podiatrists, we will always recommend these over slip-ons - for kids and adults alike! If you need to speak to us please visit www.healthpointpodiatry.com.au 02 8734 3266

02.01.2022 Is your child regularly walking on their tip-toes? When children are first starting to learn to walk confidently, they may tiptoe, and it may then become a habit. Tip toe walking should be outgrown by the age of 3. If it is not, it is recommended to have an assessment to rule out more serious causes of the toe walking and possibly treat physical and developmental conditions.... We love helping kids stay happy and active on their feet! www.healthpointpodiatry.com.au 02 8734 3266
