Your feet are your foundation 👣 We would always explain biomechanics like the tracking in your car - if your tracking is out , it can have an affect on your ankle, knees, hips and posture! As we get older our feet flatten from being on them for how many hours a day etc. our feet are a fantastic piece of equipment that keeps us mobile and if you look after them, they will stop you getting older quicker 😊 👣

Everyone has two legs 👣!

And they are doing a very good job of carrying your body weight around all day every day- working, running, up and down stairs, 9 months of pregnancy, climbing your favourite mountain, cycling your favourite route, standing at a concert, going shopping, and the list could go on but your legs do all the work!!

We are 23 years open this year (crikey!!!) and you must remember we have gained a wealth of experience regarding the human gait pattern. Everyone is different and the differences can cause problems which is our job to fix!

It’s never normal for your legs to be causing you problems, be smart and get them assessed. We all need an NCT to keep us ticking over and to stop us getting older quicker. Educating the patient is the key to a healthy lifestyle. 😊👣🏃‍♀️🥾

Keep moving as best you can and if foot pain, heel pain or aching legs get in your way, Killarney/Tralee Podiatry Clinic is here to help you move better.

Common problems such as heel pain, plantar fasciitis, knee pain and back pain often get worse with inactivity. There’s a time when rest is appropriate but too much inactivity often makes things worse. So make sure you keep moving -our motto is little and often! Keep on walking, running, cycling and playing and we’ll be here to help if aching feet or painful legs get in the way!

Adolescents are our biggest cohort of biomechanical assessments where alignment problems really come to the forefront when sports are involved ⚽️ 🏃‍♀️ 🏀 🏑 🥅
If there are secondary problems arising during sport. It’s pretty much guaranteed that an alignment issue/weakness is part of the problem.
The sooner a child is assessed for any weaknesses, the quicker the outcome!
Patient education is key 👣 And that’s one thing we are good at!

2 flat tyres 🤔! 👣 👞🚶‍♀️

Yep we would definately recommend Casted Orthotics to put the feet back into a neutral alignment position. 😊

Conversation with patient today :
Patient : Do I have flat feet?
Podiatrist :Jesus you need to go to spectsavers 🤣

We like the honesty policy with patients - but in all fairness patient education is our main objective for any Biomechanical Assessment patient. We are in business 23 years and have seen how gait affects people’s lives as we progress through the ageing process. If we can educate and prevent - then we are on the pigs back with slowing down the ageing process to maintain a healthy balanced active lifestyle 👣
