Sports Podiatry

Sports podiatry is a specialized branch of sports medicine focused on diagnosing and treating foot and ankle issues in athletes and active individuals. Podiatrists in this field assess how foot mechanics affect overall performance and can address problems such as injuries, pain, or structural abnormalities. They often provide tailored treatment plans, which may include custom orthotics, rehabilitation exercises, and advice on footwear. By optimizing foot health, sports podiatrists help athletes improve their performance and prevent further injuries, ensuring they can engage in their chosen activities safely and effectively.
