What causes foot pain?

Foot pain and heel pains are Debilitating because they severely limit socialising and mobility. Approximately 80% of people suffer some kind of foot pain in their lifetime, however, I am here to help you. I treat a wide range of foot & heel conditions. I don’t do day to day maintenance like hard skin removal or nail cutting, however.

Your feet are damaged by today’s environment because they were designed to walk on grass, soil and soft surfaces. Instead, we have concrete, paving and harsh surfaces damage our feet daily. Therefore we suffer loss of our foot arches (flat feet for instance). In addition, this is sometimes made worse by low quality or poorly fitting shoes.

These arches, however, can be supported by use of prescription orthotics. Moreover, they provide a long term solution whilst also correcting your standing posture. They are superior to the ‘off the shelf’ arch supports, because they are individually produced to your needs. Would you buy reading glasses as opposed to seeing the Opticians? So why buy inferior products that don’t consider all aspects of your foot’s requirements.

Bad feet result in poor posture because of the reasons outlined on this page’s video. Likewise, poor posture puts more stress on the feet. At MyOsteo I ensure both are working in harmony and, as a result, you will be on balance. Because Chiropodists and Podiatrists don’t always do this, they are not as effective as they should be. Unlike myself, they aren’t qualified to correct your entire body alignment.

Because I am a specialist in the structure of the body, I can treat your pains. Firstly, I use back pain & massage treatments. Secondly, and most importantly, I can assess all your posture to see if it can be helped by Orthotics.
