Foot Health: The Ultimate Gift This Christmas

Foot Health: The Ultimate Gift This Christmas

Is it aStumped about what to get your loved ones for Christmas this year? After the year we’ve had here in Melbourne, so are we. One thing that this year has highlighted for us is the importance of looking after our health – and with more and more people returning to us after lockdown with a series of new aches and pains resulting from the “new norm” way of living, we thought we’d propose a new kind of Christmas gift for your loved ones this year: taking control of their foot health, pains or problems with a podiatry appointment. 

 

Who can benefit from a podiatry appointment?

 

 

If you’ve never been to see a podiatrist before, or you’ve only seen them for a specific problem, it’s normal that you may not realise the extensive range of services we offer, and the large number of people that we help.

 

We’ve got to add a disclaimer in here: here at Sole Motion Podiatry, we’re not exactly your typical podiatry clinic. We actively seek new and innovative treatments, use techniques for pain-relief that many others can’t – or don’t have the time – to invest into, encourage our team to always be learning and upskilling, and make sure to work with the best. So you can expect to find a level of services and skills here that is pretty unique to Melbourne and the surrounds.

 

We often work with and help:

 

✔️  Children with gait problems like in-toeing, knock knees, regular tripping, that can’t keep up with their friends in sports at school, or that have warts, ingrown toenails and other pains

✔️  Those needing advanced pain management – using innovative treatments like amino neuro frequency (ANF) therapy and laser treatment

✔️  Those that are unhappy with the cosmetic appearance of their toenails – and want a safe, healthy improvement in one appointment

✔️  Those that want the competitive edge in sports – to optimise their performance, foot structure and lower limb biomechanics

✔️  Those with a painful injury in their foot, ankle, leg, knee or hip – whether it has been present for days or years – with a focus on not only managing the current symptoms, but preventing them from returning in the future

✔️  Those wanting to recover their quickest after surgery or a procedure

✔️  Those wanting to stay active, comfortable and independent for as long as possible into their golden years

… and many others. If you have a pain or problem in your lower limbs, even if you’ve been told by others that there’s little that can be done for your ongoing pain, we can help.

 

Five podiatry gift ideas for your family this Christmas

 

Keryflex-Results

1. Healthy, clear and great-looking toenails

Know someone that feels uncomfortable or embarrassed about the way their toenails look? We can transform the appearance of their toenails in one appointment using our Keryflex nail restoration system. Better yet, all our techniques in our clinic are completed using the highest safety and hygiene protocols, so you eliminate the traditional risk of fungal toenails and other infections from visiting a nail salon.

2. No more painful lumps, bumps and cracked heels when walking

There’s always one member of the family that’s happy to ignore a painful problem like corns, calluses and cracked heels on the bottom of the feet. A problem that is very treatable in one appointment, yet they insist that they’re absolutely fine and it’s no big deal

Our skin and nail care appointments treat all these problems, as well as any wounds, while trimming and reducing the thickness of even the toughest toenails. See what else is included here.

3. Proper foot comfort and support at last

If one of your loved ones often comes home at the end of a long day to put their feet up, breathe out a big sigh of relief, and mention how achy their feet had been throughout the day – then let us help them get relief at last, while helping them stay more comfortable throughout the day.

We have many techniques and tools to improve comfort and support, and one of our primary tools is using custom foot orthotics made from an impression of their feet paired with a comprehensive assessment and gait analysis with our podiatrists.

4. Pain relief they never thought they’d feel

This is one treatment that has literally had life-changing results for our patients – giving them the pain relief they never thought they’d have – or had previously been told by other practitioners that they wouldn’t. This therapy uses small discs to get to the cause of the problems your loved one may be experiencing, giving them relief from pain and inflammation and restoring the natural rhythm of the body.

It’s not just for foot and leg pain either – we use ANF on back pain, shoulder pain, the upper body and more. See the details here

5. The right treatment for that pain or injury that has been put up with for months, or years

Been told there’s nothing you can do for your child’s growing pains or in-toeing aside from wait it out? Wrong – we can help.

Tried everything for that Achilles pain at the back of your heel that always creeps back when you hit the basketball court for a social game with your friends? We can help with that, too.

Facing ‘expected’ ongoing pain or discomfort following a surgery or other procedure? You shouldn’t have to. These are all problems that we help with here at Sole Motion – alongside many, many more.

 

Health, well-being and pain relief starts with one step: a podiatry gift voucher

We hope that you’ve been having a lovely December preparing for the silly season – and we’ll see you soon.
