Sports Podiatry & Running Injuries — Victoria Park

Sports podiatry is about keeping you training — not just “getting out of pain”. Whether you’re a runner, a field sport athlete, or simply active on weekends, we assess the injury, the mechanics contributing to it, and the training loads that keep re-triggering symptoms.

Common sports injuries we treat

• Achilles tendon pain and calf overload
• Plantar fasciitis and heel pain
• Shin pain (including medial tibial stress syndrome)
• Forefoot pain, stress reactions and metatarsal overload
• Ankle sprains and return-to-running planning

What your assessment includes

• History of symptoms and training changes
• Strength, mobility and functional testing
• Gait and running mechanics review (where appropriate)
• Footwear and spike/boot review
• A staged return-to-sport plan with clear progression

Treatment tools we may use

• Load management and training modifications
• Taping and bracing strategies
• Rehab exercises with progression
• Orthotics/insoles where mechanics and load distribution matter
• Footwear recommendations to match your sport and foot type
