What is Musculoskeletal Podiatry?
Walking to work, playing with your children, going to the gym or training for the marathon all have an impact on your feet. This video explores the options available to patients when needing to manage conditions that may affect you when wanting to stay active and healthy. It covers gait analysis, assessment, evaluation, preparation of care plans and podopaediatrics. Treatments such as steroid injections, stretching and orthotic interventions are highlighted as some of the modalities a podiatrist may use.
If you want to run but are worried about developing OA, a physiotherapist can examine your risk factors and discuss the benefits and drawbacks of running for you as an individual. They can assist you in developing a specific plan and techniques to help you avoid injury, such as strength and conditioning programmes or relaxing stiff joints and muscles, and they can also assist you in properly rehabilitating injuries if they do occur.
