Heel pain has a way of creeping into your life.
It might start as a slight ache when you get out of bed… then suddenly you’re limping to the bathroom every morning. Walking the dog hurts. Standing at work becomes frustrating. Even simple things feel like a chore.
The truth is—heel pain doesn’t usually go away on its own. But the good news? With the right treatment, it can be fixed.
At our Heel Pain Clinic in Modbury, we focus on getting real results—by finding the exact cause of your pain and treating it properly from day one.
Why Our Clinic is Different
A lot of clinics treat heel pain the same way for everyone.
We don’t.
Our experienced podiatrists take the time to understand:
Why your heel pain started
What structures are actually involved
What will fix it as quickly as possible
Heel pain could be:
Plantar fasciitis
Achilles tendon issues
Heel fat pad problems
Nerve irritation
Poor foot mechanics
Getting the diagnosis right is everything—and that’s where we stand out.
Advanced Treatment That Actually Speeds Up Recovery
1. Shockwave Therapy
If your heel pain has been lingering, shockwave therapy can be a game-changer.
It works by stimulating healing in damaged tissue and is especially effective for stubborn heel pain that hasn’t improved with basic treatment.
2. Custom Orthotics – Done Properly
Here’s something most people don’t realise…
Many clinics send your foot scan to a lab where someone designs your orthotics without ever seeing you.
We don’t do that.
Your orthotics are:
Designed by your treating podiatrist
Based on how you walk, stand, and move
Fine-tuned as your pain improves
That level of detail makes a huge difference in results.
3. Convenient, Local & Easy to Access
We’re located in Modbury, directly opposite Westfield Tea Tree Plaza.
Easy parking right out the front
Simple access from across Adelaide’s north-east
Close to shops and public transport
We also offer after-hours appointments, so you can get treated without rearranging your whole day.
4. All-in-One Care (Podiatry + Physio)
Some heel pain needs more than just support—it needs rehabilitation.
With physiotherapy available in the clinic, we can:
Guide you through the right exercises
Improve strength and movement
Help prevent your pain from coming back
What to Expect (Step-by-Step)
If you’ve never seen a podiatrist before, here’s exactly how it works:
1. Thorough Assessment
We start by listening.
You’ll tell us:
Where it hurts
When it started
What makes it worse or better
Then we assess:
Your foot posture
How you walk (biomechanics)
The exact structure causing your pain
2. Clear Diagnosis
No guessing.
We explain:
What’s causing your heel pain
Why it’s happening
How long it will take to improve
You’ll leave understanding your condition—not confused.
3. Personalised Treatment Plan
This may include:
Shockwave therapy
Strapping or offloading
Footwear advice
Custom orthotics (if needed)
Rehab exercises with physio
Everything is tailored to you.
4. Ongoing Support & Adjustments
Heel pain doesn’t just “switch off” overnight.
We guide you through recovery:
Tracking your progress
Adjusting treatment if needed
Making sure you’re improving week by week
