Welcome to South Burnett
Podiatry, Kingaroy

Step One: We Talk

Learning about you is the key to success and recovery. We learn about you, your concerns, your symptoms, your goals and the results you’d like to achieve.

We take a detailed history so we have a complete picture of what may have contributed to the development of your pain or problems.

Step Two: You Relax, We Assess

We’ll perform a clinical exam to find out exactly what’s going on - and why. This may include:

• Palpating to identify injured (and healthy) tissues
• Muscle strength testing
• Testing the range of motion available at the joints through your feet, ankles, knees, legs and hips
• Foot posture index
• Gait analysis
• Footwear assessment
• Injury-specific and condition-specific testing

Where necessary, we’ll refer you for an x-ray or ultrasound or MRI to confirm your diagnosis.

Step Three: We explain exactly
what has happened and why

After we’ve confirmed your diagnosis, we’ll go through exactly what happening and causing your pain and why, in a way that is simple and easy for you to understand.

Understanding why a problem has developed means you’ll know how to prevent it from getting worse, and what to look out for in the future to reduce the risk of it happening again.

Step Four: Your journey to
feeling better begins!

We prescribe a tailored treatment plan which serves to help you feel better, as well as have you performing better so you can reach and exceed your goals! We ensure the treatment plan works in with your life, your commitments and the things you hope to achieve.

We’ll go through every step, explaining how each component will help your progress. We’ll answer any questions you have and fill you in on everything you need to know to get the best results in the fastest time. Treatment begins!

Step Five: We support you at every step

We see you regularly, track your progress, provide any additional treatment and ensure that you’re getting the results you want. We’re always available to answer any questions you have throughout your recovery. Success!
