The Wimmera’s Foot and Ankle Professionals

Sports Podiatry

At Elite Podiatry Centre, we understand and appreciate the need to get you back to your chosen sport as soon as possible.

Appropriate management of injuries in the first 48 hours can result in quicker healing and a speedier return to activity. If you sustain a foot, ankle or leg injury, it is important to begin rest, regular icing, compression and elevation of the leg.

Early assessment and accurate diagnosis by our Podiatrists is also important, giving us the opportunity to begin the most appropriate treatment quickly.

At Elite Podiatry Centre we will always do our best to see you as quickly as possible if you sustain an injury.

We have extra emergency appointments available on Mondays to enable anyone who sustains an injury over the weekend to access the best care as soon as possible.

We can provide a plan to prevent the condition from progressing and to support your body as it recovers.

Common treatments we often use when managing sports-related conditions are shockwave therapy, dry needling, strapping, rock taping, customised orthotics, offloading with CAM Walkers, foot mobilisation therapy, as well as possible modification to your training and footwear.

After a thorough assessment and correct diagnosis, we can have you starting rehab while your injury heals, meaning that there is less deconditioning associated with your recovery.

Various types of stretching and strengthening exercises are gradually increased during your rehabilitation. We will also advise on alternative training options to maintain your cardio fitness during the process.

Get in touch today to book an appointment. We are looking forward to working with you.
