Children’s Podiatry

Is your child suffering from a foot injury?

Children’s feet are different to that of adults. When they are young, their bones are still very soft and are therefore more easily affected by external factors that may result in abnormalities. Some signs of poor foot posture may include tripping, aching feet, aching legs, growing pains & heel pain. Children’s feet need to be especially looked after as they are not yet fully formed.

Children’s podiatry is a passion of ours, and we offer expert consultations on assessing your children’s feet problems.
