Assessment, treatment, and custom orthotics for foot, heel, and lower limb pain at selected Habit Health clinics.
If foot pain, heel pain, flat feet or a lower limb injury is slowing you down, our podiatry team can help. We provide assessment, diagnosis, treatment, and custom orthotics so you can move more comfortably at work, at sport, and in everyday life.
At Habit Health, podiatry is about finding the cause of the problem and treating it properly.
Podiatry helps when pain, injury, or ongoing discomfort is affecting your feet, heels, or lower limbs. Our podiatrists support people managing foot pain, walking difficulties, lower limb strain, and movement issues that affect daily life, work, or sport.
Treatment focuses on improving comfort, supporting better movement, and reducing strain through the feet and lower body.
Podiatry may be a good fit if you are:
Managing ongoing foot or heel pain
including plantar fasciitis, Achilles pain, or arch pain
Recovering from a foot or lower limb injury
such as an ankle sprain or sports-related strain
Finding walking or standing uncomfortable
due to flat feet, bunions, or pressure-related pain
Experiencing shin splints or overuse injuries
from running or sport
Looking for custom orthotics
after pharmacy inserts have not given you the result you need

Podiatry can support a range of foot and lower limb concerns, including:
If you are dealing with foot pain, lower limb discomfort, or a sports injury, we can assess what is driving it and build a treatment plan around that.
We use advanced walking and pressure analysis to identify movement patterns that may be contributing to pain or strain. Computerised gait analysis gives us an accurate picture of how your feet and lower limbs are loading so we can target treatment more precisely.
Custom orthotics are designed to support foot alignment, improve comfort, and reduce strain through the body. They are precision-made to your feet, your gait, and your footwear.
Exercise is tailored to your specific condition and stage of recovery, helping you build strength, restore movement, and reduce the chance of re-injury.
Hands-on techniques are used to reduce muscle tension, ease stiffness, and improve mobility in the foot and lower limbs.
Your first appointment starts with a detailed conversation about your symptoms, your goals, and what you have already tried. From there, we look at how your feet and lower limbs are moving so we can work out what is contributing to the problem.
Your assessment may include:
If pain, pressure, or poor foot mechanics are affecting how you move, custom orthotics may be part of your treatment plan. Unlike pharmacy inserts, they are precision-made for your feet, your gait, and the shoes you actually wear.
Your podiatrist will assess whether orthotics are right for you at your appointment. For more detail on how custom orthotics work and how they are made, see our physiotherapy treatments page.
