Assessment comes first

For joint, muscle, tendon or postural pain, every course of treatment at Feet In Focus begins with a thorough assessment.

Foot and lower limb pain can have many different causes, and similar symptoms can come from quite different problems. Before recommending any treatment, we carry out a thorough musculoskeletal (MSK) or biomechanical assessment to identify the underlying pathology. This allows us to recommend the treatment, or combination of treatments, best suited to you. That may include steroid injections, foot orthoses or acupuncture, among other options.

Conditions we commonly treat

✓Plantar fasciitis and heel pain
✓Bunions and painful, inflamed joints
✓Morton’s neuroma
✓Medial knee pain
✓Restless leg syndrome
✓Postural aches and pains

Treatments we may recommend

Depending on what your assessment finds, your treatment plan may include one or more of the following.

Steroid injections

Steroid (cortisone) injections are very effective for painful, inflamed joints and conditions such as bunions, plantar fasciitis and Morton’s neuroma.

Ostenil injections

Ostenil is a hyaluronic acid injection that lubricates and cushions an arthritic joint, helping to ease pain and stiffness, for example in the big toe or ankle. You will need an initial MSK consultation or steroid injection assessment before your first Ostenil injection.

Acupuncture and dry needling

Used for conditions such as restless leg syndrome, medial knee pain, Morton’s neuroma and joint pain.

Physical therapies

Exercise programmes, mobilisation and ultrasound to reduce pain and restore movement.

Foot orthoses

Custom orthoses address the postural imbalances behind many aches and pains.

Which appointment should I book?

For pain in your joints, muscles or tendons, start with an MSK consultation. Many problems can be treated from that first appointment. If your problem is more complicated, or you would like a more detailed assessment from the start, book a biomechanical assessment, or a running video gait analysis if your pain is linked to running.

If you are not sure which to book, call 02920 644900 or email info@feetinfocus.com and we will be happy to advise.
