Proper posture begins from the ground—or should we say, feet—up.

At Rose Park Podiatry, we believe that addressing foot health and mobility issues as early as possible lays the strong foundations needed to prevent postural problems that can result in chronic pain if left untreated.

Many people don’t think about the role that foot alignment has on our knee, hip, or back posture. Our experienced team of local Adelaide podiatrists perform a detailed postural analysis to determine if your feet could be impacting other parts of your body. This is undertaken along with a gait analysis as well as muscle strength and movement testing.

With leading technology assisting us, we identify how your feet could be impacting your posture—poor posture can place more strain on joints, and this can lead to chronic back, hip, and knee pain. Many people don’t realise that poor foot posture is a leading cause of knee and hip arthritis.

Once we gather this information, we recommend a proactive way forward for you.

We explore a wide range of strategies to help prevent, manage, and treat a number of foot and postural-related health issues.

Some of the strategies we can consider include:

• Custom orthotics for shoes
• Footwear selection and education
• Postural awareness education
• Strengthening and stretching exercises
• Dry needling and massage
• Working closely with other health professionals

Our treatment plans are tailored to your individual needs, so you can be confident in receiving personalised care from our expert team.
