How We Can Help You
Report
Shockwave Therapy is a new breakthrough technology which helps to promote faster healing of injured muscles, tendons and ligaments. Additionally, it has been proven to reduce pain and decrease inflammation. Shockwave Therapy has been clinically tested and trialled, with clients experiencing up to 90% improvement in pain after 3-6 sessions, with some clients often reporting improvements after just one treatment.
Bunions
Report
The technical name for a bunion is "Hallux Abductovalgus". It is sometimes also referred to as just "Hallux Valgus". This "bump" develops due to the increased pressure on footwear and is commonly made up of bone. Over time a bunion can progressively get worse without treatment. Bunions can be a cause of discomfort and can also become quite painful.
Hallux Treatment
Report
The main role of the hallux is to help the body push off and forward when you are walking. It is a common area of the foot to develop pain and discomfort. The Podiatrists at Rivervale Podiatry are trained and experienced in the assessment and treatment of hallux concerns.
Pain in the big joint at the base of the big toe can be caused by poor-alignment of the joint due to a bunion, the development of bony spurs that prevent the joint from working properly, irritation from poor-fitting footwear and inflammation of the structures surrounding the joint, e.g.Pain in the smaller joint of the big toe is usually as a result of increased pressure on the joint and abnormal movement of the joint.

Heel Pain and Plantar Fasciitis
Report
When we have stretching of the tight band that holds together the arch of the foot (the plantar fascia), then it becomes tight. This band cannot stretch like a muscle does, so it just gets pulled tight and becomes sore. It will pull so much that it ends up stretching the outer lining of the bone, resulting in the formation of a spur.
