17.01.2022 STOP!!! DON'T MAKE THESE 3 MISTAKES BEFORE YOU START RUNNING AS A NEW FORM OF FITNESS Running is a great way to keep active and at the clinic, we have seen a l...ot more people taking up running. We have found that everyone has been enjoying getting out and running along the coastlines, through the parks and even pounding the pavement around the local streets. What we have noticed is that as more people take up running there have been more injuries. These injuries can be very painful and quite debilitating and can stop the once keen runner right in their tracks. At Switch, we help people to continue moving and at the moment we are seeing the impact that increased running is having on both new and experienced runners alike. The once keen runner is now in pain and battling to get back out there and run again. We have identified 3 factors which cause this: 1. Running overload 2. Poor running shoes 3. Poor running technique At Switch, we encourage runners to get out there and achieve their goals whether it be to keep fit and active or to run a marathon. For people who want to achieve their running goals, we're offering 3 gap-free running assessments each week. The assessment includes: 1. A comprehensive history of your running/fitness history 2. Full biomechanical assessment 3. Computerised gait and running technique analysis 4. Detailed program outlining your gaols, accountability tools and injury prevention measures The assessment is for people with private health insurance and podiatry cover, but for those who don't have podiatry cover, we'll reduce the cost from $189 to only $49. Please call our lovely reception team on 9585 8844 or go to: https://thekneepainclinic.com.au/gap-free-running-assessme/ to become a robust runner who can keep running sustainably...injury free!

01.01.2022 Plantar Fasciitis is often misdiagnosed leading to people getting the wrong information on what to do about their pain and even worse, getting the wrong treatme...nt If there is pain on the bottom of the heel and it's been there, well and truly over 2-3 months, chances are it's not plantar fasciitis. Waking up in the morning with no pain, but as the day goes on there is a burning pain around the ankle and into the heel, chances are it's not plantar fasciitis. And if the pain is more into the arch of the foot and not the heel, again even more chance it's not plantar fasciitis! Now here is the most important information that will help determine if the pain is true Plantar fasciitis and will help dispel any wives tales, incorrect or old school diagnosis or the good old dr google misinterpretation of plantar fasciitis: True plantar fasciitis is a sharp pain in the front portion of the heel that can turn into a dull ache during the day. The pain is in 1 distinct spot and it has been there for less than 2 months. An accurate diagnosis of Plantar fasciitis needs to make sure that the pain is in the front portion of the heel and the pain is in 1 distinct spot, if not then treatment will not be effective and the pain will not respond or get better, instead the heel pain can get worse or impact the foot even further. To make sure that plantar fasciitis in not misdiagnosed we have a thorough assessment process that will ensure that we are able to accurately diagnose the pain in the heel and provide the right treatment plan to reduce the pain. Each week we offer 3 expert gap-free heel pain assessments. The assessment is for: People who get out of bed limping People who are frustrated that they can’t exercise and stay healthy People who are saddened that they can’t play and keep up with the kids People who are hobbled getting out of a chair when they've been sitting for a period The GAP FREE Expert Heel Pain Assessment Includes: Detailed history taking Biomechanical assessment Lower limb assessment 3D gait analysis A diagnosis and no-obligation treatment plan Normally valued at $189 but you have no out of pocket expense if you have podiatry cover. If you have no podiatry cover - no problem. You only pay $49. Go to https://switchheelpainclinic.com.au/gap-free-plantar-fascii or call 9585 8844 to get pain-free today!
