Sportspinal Health Podiatry Hawthorn specialises in the assessment, diagnosis and management of foot, ankle and lower limb disorders. Our Hawthorn Podiatrists have vast clinical experience in managing lower limb issues, from basic causes of foot and leg pain (general nail care) to the most complex conditions (biomechanical imbalances).  All of our podiatrists have completed extensive training and continue to develop themselves professionally, allowing us to provide the most up to date and effective treatments.

Sport and physical activity places high loads on the feet and legs. Our podiatrists specialise in gait analysis and are experts in analysing foot function and lower limb biomechanics. This assessment allows our practitioners to identify factors that contribute to injury. Then, using certain treatments such as; orthoses prescription, strengthening exercises and footwear selection/modification, these contributing factors can be eliminated to enhance foot and lower limb performance.

The foot is amongst the furthest structures from the heart and the brain. This exposes it to possible circulatory and neurological conditions. Certain medical conditions such as Diabetes, Rheumatoid arthritis, Gout, Osteoarthritis and other conditions can cause these kinds of changes to the feet and ankles. These changes can include loss of sensation, lack of blood flow to the feet and painful skin and nail conditions. Our podiatrist are qualified in assessing and managing such conditions.  Sportspinal Health Podiatry Hawthorn has you covered for all your Podiatry needs!
