Wagga Heel Pain Clinic

Comprehensive assessment and individualised care for heel pain

Active Health offers a dedicated Heel Pain Clinic providing focused, evidence-based care for a wide range of heel conditions, including Plantar Fasciitis, Achilles Tendinopathy, Sever’s Disease in children, Bursitis, and Heel Spurs.

Heel pain can be completely debilitating, it can stop you from exercising, walking without pain and just makes daily activities difficult. After all, we need our feet to carry us around everyday! Perhaps you can relate…

Heel pain can last for months and even years if not well managed or allowed to heal properly. The heel and its surrounding structures are engaged with every step so it can be difficult to live an active life when you are reminded of that pain every morning when you first get out of bed.

Experience the difference

Active Health provides a unique multi-disciplinary approach to treating your heel pain. Our Podiatrists work closely with our team of Physiotherapists and Exercise Physiologists to get to know you, identify the true cause of your heel pain, build a treatment plan tailored to your needs & get you back to your active life sooner.

What to expect

Combining the latest evidence based treatment techniques and over 20 years of clinical experience treating Heel Pain, you will receive a personalised treatment plan that will outline your roadmap to recovery and keep you on track to reaching your goals. 

In this plan you will:

  • Finally discover what is causing your heel pain (it may not be what you think)
  • Identify & set your goals for treatment
  • Receive the latest evidence-based treatments
  • Learn self-management exercises to relieve your pain at home
  • Leave with clarity and certainty about how you can be heel pain-free.  

The best form of treatment is early intervention, so the sooner you seek treatment the greater chance of making a quick recovery.
