Podiatrist or physio? Here's how to know 🤔🦶

Not sure who to book with? Our team breaks down the simple way to think about it - so you can get to the right person faster and actually fix the problem 💪

Podiatrists treat: Everything from the knee down - feet, ankles, shins, and anything related to how you walk or run 👣

Physios typically treat: Hip pain, back pain, hamstrings, and upper body issues 🏃‍♂️

The crossover zone: If your knee or hip pain is being driven by the way your foot moves? That's where we overlap. Poor foot mechanics can absolutely cause problems further up the chain - and that's where podiatry comes in 🔗
Simple rule of thumb: Knee and below → start with us. Not sure? Just book in and we'll point you in the right direction. We work collaboratively with physios all the time and won't hesitate to refer you if that's what you need ✨

Get to the right care faster. Your body will thank you 💙

3 years of Addy at Melbourne Podiatry Clinic 🎉💙

Three years ago, Addy joined our team and honestly? We can't imagine the clinic without her now.

Whether she's guiding first-timers through their initial assessment, helping athletes get back on the field, or just making someone's day a little brighter - Addy brings passion, expertise, and authenticity to everything she does ✨

Her patients don't just trust her clinical skills (which are excellent) - they genuinely enjoy working with her. That's the Addy effect 🦶

Here's to 3 years down and many more to come. Thanks for being you, Addy 💙

🏜️ Sahara Desert. 270km. 9 days.

An unforgettable experience being part of the medical team at the Marathon des Sables.

Long, relentless days in extreme conditions, working alongside an incredible team to help 1500 runners push through one of the toughest endurance events on the planet. The resilience, mindset, and grit on display out there was next level.

A huge privilege to be part of it and an experience I’ll take a lot from, both personally and clinically.

Podiatrists are officially bilingual 🗣️👂
What you say vs what we actually hear. Nina and Lachie reveal the real translations behind the classic lines we hear every day in clinic 😂

"It's just a bit tight" = inflammation is already starting
"It only hurts sometimes" = early stage problem
"It goes away when I rest" = definitely not fixed
"I changed my shoes" = cause hasn't been addressed

Sound familiar? We hear these every single day - and we can read between the lines 💙
The earlier you address foot pain properly, the easier it is to fix. Don't wait until "sometimes" becomes "always" and "a bit tight" becomes "can't walk" 🦶

If any of these translations hit home... it's time to get it checked properly

POV: Your first podiatry visit and Addy's already set the vibe 😂
If you've been putting off booking because you think podiatry appointments are serious and intimidating... think again 💙

This is the energy you can expect at Melbourne Podiatry Clinic. We'll sort your feet out AND make you laugh while we're at it ✨

First-timers always leave saying "that was way more chill than I expected" - because good healthcare doesn't have to feel clinical and awkward 🦶
Ready to experience the vibe for yourself? Book with Addy (or any of our legends) and see what the fuss is about 💪

Do you actually need a podiatrist? Here's your cheat sheet 📋
Addy breaks down the signs that it's time to book in - because most people wait way too long before getting help 🦶

✅ Morning heel pain that feels like stepping on legos
✅ That ni**le that's been "almost better" for weeks
✅ Toenails doing their own dodgy thing
✅ Walking a bit funny but brushing it off
Sound familiar? That's your sign 🚨

The earlier you catch these issues, the faster and easier they are to fix. Don't wait until you're properly hobbling to get assessed. We see people every day who wish they'd come in sooner 💪
If you're nodding along to any of these - book in. Your feet will thank you ✨

Hyrox athletes: don't ignore these warning signs 🚨

The running component is often the toughest part of Hyrox prep - and your body will tell you when things are heading in the wrong direction. Brian and Niss reveal the early red flags that signal you need to adjust before a ni**le becomes an injury.

Morning heel pain - That stabbing pain on your first steps out of bed? Early sign of plantar fasciitis. Your fascia is irritated from the repetitive running load, and ignoring it will only make it worse 🦶
Calf tightness and shin pain - Your lower legs are copping it from the combo of strength work + running volume. When calves stay tight and shins start aching, your tissues are telling you they're not recovering between sessions ⚡

The athletes who stay healthy through Hyrox prep? They catch these signs early and adjust. The ones who push through? They end up sidelined weeks out from race day 💥

Don't let warning signs become injuries. Listen to your body and get assessed early 💪

⚡️ More than meets the eye 👀

We’re incredibly fortunate to have access to tools like shockwave and point-of-care ultrasound in clinic. They allow us to better understand what’s really going on, particularly in those more chronic, stubborn cases.

Shockwave offers a safe, non-invasive way to reduce pain and stimulate healing, and when combined with ultrasound, it gives us even greater clarity and precision in treatment.

Helping our patients get better, faster, with the right insights and the right approach.

Big thanks to James Ferrie for an outstanding PD session 🙌

Hyrox athletes: the sled won't injure you. The run after it will 🛷➡️🏃‍♂️

The real injury risk in Hyrox isn't the strength stations - it's running on fatigued legs immediately after. Brian breaks down what happens to your running mechanics when your calves and quads are cooked 💥

Post-sled, post-lunges, post-wall balls: you're not running fresh. Fatigue leads to overstriding, heavier heel striking, and trunk collapse. That's when excessive load hits your Achilles, plantar fascia, and shins - the exact injuries we see in Hyrox prep ⚡

The fix? Shorten your stride, lift your cadence slightly, and stay tall through your posture even when you're gassed. Control under fatigue = reduced injury risk 💪
Don't let your running mechanics fall apart when it matters most. Train the fatigue state, not just fresh legs.

Make sure your Hyrox prep is building you up, not breaking you down 🔥

Our Story

Melbourne Podiatry Clinic is dedicated to achieving the best possible outcomes for all our patients. We use the most up-to-date assessment methods to accurately diagnose the problem and develop the most effective treatment and management plan for each individual patient. By using the very latest in video gait technology we are able to measure any biomechanical issues that are causing pain or other problems. Our specialist podiatrists can then accurately prescribe the best available treatment techniques. Do you suffer from frustrating running injuries or want to run faster? We have developed a unique assessment method that allows runners of all levels to maximise their performance while eliminating the risk of injury through overtraining or poor biomechanics. We identify flaws in your running technique and training methods that lead to specific injuries and implement a specific program to eliminate these deficiencies and propel you past your goals!
