We enjoy helping children, of all ages, stay active, healthy and happy!
We commonly see children withdrawing from day-to-day activity and exercise because of sore, tired or painful feet and legs.
We work as part of the health care team, helping to assess and diagnose conditions that affect children’s feet and legs. We then address the reasons as to why the condition is present, guiding the young patient back to their normal activities that they enjoy!
Some of the children’s foot conditions we commonly help with are –
| In-toeing (pigeon toeing) | Tired/sore legs |
| In-growing toenails | Growing pains |
| Heel pain | Shin pain |
| Sever’s heel syndrome | Toe walking |
| Osgood Schlatters disease | Tinea Pedis / Athletes Foot |
| Knee pain | Warts |
| Fungal toenails | Painful toenails |
If you want us to help you stay active, please contact us or book your appointment online!
We look forward to caring for you soon!
