Conditions Treated by CBR Podiatry
Enhancing and preserving the health and function of your feet and lower limbs can lead to substantial benefits for your overall body and well-being, with podiatry playing a crucial part.
Our podiatrist is skilled in assessing, diagnosing, and treating a broad spectrum of foot, ankle, and lower leg conditions. CBR Podiatry’s mission is to boost your lower limb mobility, comfort, and functionality, dealing with concerns ranging from childhood development to athletic injuries to long-term health conditions.
We commonly treat a variety of conditions, such as:

Heel pain is a common and debilitating condition caused by many different conditions that can greatly impact your daily routine. Our principal podiatrist is experienced in treating heel pain and diagnosing the underlying cause.

Is heel pain troubling you? It could be due to plantar fasciitis, or plantar fasciopathy, where the thick band of tissue between the heel and toes is damaged. Overuse, injury, and other causes are often involved. We create customised treatment plans for this common foot issue.

Bunions are hard protrusions at the base of the big toe joint, typically causing discomfort and shoe difficulties. They can result in limited mobility and skin irritation. Arthritis may also develop in the joint, worsening the condition. We assist in treating pain, managing inflammation, and offering footwear advice.

This condition, marked by pain and irritation of the Achilles tendon, frequently results from overuse, repetitive stress, or sudden physical activity changes. We deliver a customised treatment plan and assist you through the rehabilitation process.

An ingrown toenail can be very painful, where the side or corner of the nail, often on the big toe, grows into the skin. This can result in swelling, pain, trouble wearing shoes, and infection. Our experienced podiatrist will evaluate the condition and offer the best treatment, including nail trimming or minor surgery, all at our local clinic.

Orthotics can greatly improve your movement, body alignment, and overall comfort. We offer a wide range of orthotics tailored to your individual foot care needs and lifestyle, including custom-moulded, heat-moulded, and off-the-shelf orthotics. We also offer orthotic solutions for high heels and fashionable footwear.

Shin Splints
A condition linked to pain and inflammation along the shinbone, shin splints can cause significant discomfort in your everyday life. We offer biomechanical assessments to analyse your movement and mobility, allowing us to create a personalised program for both improvement and prevention.

Flat Feet
Flat feet are caused by excessive foot pronation or hypermobility, rather than low arches, which is a common misconception. This may lead to discomfort, instability, or injuries, and can affect other areas around the body due to misalignment. We will examine how your feet and legs move through biomechanical assessments and develop a plan to support your feet.

Posture or Alignment Issues
When joints or muscles in the lower limbs are misaligned, it can impact your entire body. We offer comprehensive biomechanics assessments to address your individual posture, alignment, and overall musculoskeletal health. A personalised plan will be created to meet your unique needs.

Are skin and nail concerns making you uncomfortable or embarrassed? We diagnose and manage a range of issues, including corns, cracked heels, fungal infections, hard skin, and athlete’s foot. We also provide routine skin and nail care to promote healthy feet.

Verrucae, or plantar warts, can be treated in various ways. At CBR Podiatry, we assess your foot health and determine the specific type of wart to recommend the most appropriate treatment.

We offer assessment, diagnosis and treatment for kids aged 5 years and up. We cover a variety of podiatry concerns experienced by children, such as toe walking, leg pain and injuries. Our principal podiatrist, Nick, is a member of Australian Paediatric Podiatry and looks forward to helping your whole family.

If you have diabetes, regular foot health monitoring by a skilled professional is essential. During a diabetes review, we will address your concerns, goals, and current management strategies, followed by thorough assessments. A report will be sent to your GP, and our podiatrist will provide guidance on how to care for your feet to reduce the risk of serious complications.

Heel spurs are bony projections that form on the heel bone, often causing pain and discomfort, particularly during walking or running. We offer biomechanical assessments to determine the severity of your condition and create a tailored treatment plan.

Video gait analysis is a scientific technique used to observe how you walk or run, providing insights into how your movements impact your body and overall health. This valuable tool helps identify the cause of pain and injury, while also improving performance. At CBR Podiatry, gait analysis is part of our biomechanical assessments, allowing us to detect restrictions and weaknesses, and create a tailored management plan.

CBR Podiatry is a proud podiatry and foot care service provider to NDIS participants (self and plan-managed). We can give you an initial consultation and assessment, develop a podiatry care plan that aligns with your healthcare goals, and offer regular reassessments during your care plan.
