👟❤️ Giving Back to Our Community ❤️👟

Today we dropped off a generous collection of sports shoe donations from our amazing Bayside community to Sacred Heart Mission to support people experiencing homelessness and hardship.

As podiatrists, we know how important good footwear is — not just for comfort, but for mobility, dignity, and overall health. A quality pair of sports shoes can truly make a difference.

We are continuing to collect donations and would love your support!

✔️ Sports shoes only
✔️ No holes
✔️ Good, supportive soles
✔️ Clean and in wearable condition

If you have a pair to give, please drop them into the clinic during opening hours.
Thank you, Bayside, for helping us put our best foot forward for those in need 💙👟

👍 Two toes up… it’s Friday! 🎉

Ending the week on a high note with some nail surgery magic!

This procedure is a game-changer for:

-Infected ingrown nails.
- Very curved nails causing ongoing pain, irritation, swelling, or repeat flare-ups.

We also offer custom nail bracing, which is a great option in the right cases 👌

But when you’re after a more permanent solution, nail surgery is often the way to go.

Quick, effective, and designed to get you back to pain-free steps.

If you have questions or are dealing with a troublesome nail?

We are here to help!

Dry, cracked heels?

Let’s talk urea foot cream vs normal moisturiser 👇

Most regular moisturisers just sit on the surface of the skin. They’re great for everyday dryness, but when heels are thick, rough or cracked, they don’t go deep enough.

✨ Urea foot cream is different.

Urea actively breaks down hard, thickened skin and pulls moisture deep into the skin, meaning smoother heels, faster results, and longer-lasting hydration.

At Well Heeled Podiatry in Hampton, we stock professional strength options you won’t find in the supermarket or pharmacy.

✔️ Walkers Urea 25% – perfect for dry, rough, or callused feet

✔️ Dermavive Urea 40% – ideal for very thick, cracked heels that need serious help

Not sure which one your feet need? Pop in and we’ll guide you to the right option.

Your heels will thank you 💛

👟 Crocs: Trendy… but are they good for your feet? 🦶

Crocs have taken the fashion world by storm comfortable, colorful, and easy to slip on. But from a podiatry perspective, they come with both pros and cons.

✅ The Positives
• Lightweight and cushioned, which can feel great for short periods.
• Roomy toe box, helpful for bunions, swelling, or wider feet.
• Easy to clean and convenient for quick errands or around the house.

⚠️ The Negatives
• Limited arch support in many styles.
• Loose fit can lead to instability and over-gripping with your toes.
• Not ideal for long walks, all-day wear, or activities requiring support.

👣 The Bottom Line

Crocs can be fine as a casual or recovery shoe, but they shouldn’t replace a well-fitted, supportive shoe, especially if you have plantar fasciitis, flat feet, or chronic foot pain.

As with most footwear trends, moderation is key. Your feet will thank you for choosing function and fashion when it matters most!

👟 Wanted: One Awesome Podiatrist (Shoe Choice Optional, Passion Required).

Let’s skip the boring job ads.

If you’re a podiatrist who’s over cookie-cutter clinics and wants to work somewhere that actually walks the talk (pun intended), keep reading...

We’re Well Heeled Podiatry, a well-established clinic in the bayside suburb of Hampton, and we’re on the lookout for our next podiatry superstar.

We’re talking professional, friendly, curious, and maybe even a little bit shoe-obsessed (but no pressure).

Work in a calm, friendly, modern, tech-equipped clinic.

-Structured mentoring? Absolutely. Whether you’re fresh out of uni or seasoned in soles, you’ll get weekly, fortnightly or monthly mentoring based on your level of experience.
-Join a team that’s passionate, professional, and a little bit pod-obsessed.
-No crazy KPIs. Just great outcomes, happy clients, and a team that’s got your back.
-Upskilling will be provided in Foot Mobilisation and manipulation therapy.

🧦 You’ll Be a Great Fit If You:

-Are a qualified, AHPRA-registered podiatrist.
-Have excellent communication skills and can make foot care feel less… clinical.
-Love solving problems, whether it’s a complex case or a funky toenail.
-Enjoy being part of a team, but are confident flying solo.
-Bring a good vibe, sharp mind, and steady hands.

🎯 Bonus Points If:

-You’ve ever explained what a sesamoid is at a dinner party.

A*O Ankle Braces – Support That Moves With You!

If you’ve ever rolled your ankle, felt instability when walking or running, or are recovering from a sprain, an A*O ankle brace could be a game-changer.

These braces are one of the most trusted options by podiatrists, physios, and athletes—and for good reason.

What Is an A*O Ankle Brace?
The A*O (Ankle Stabilizing Orthosis) is a lightweight, durable brace designed to mimic the support of traditional ankle taping—without the bulk or constant re-taping. Its figure-8 straps and stabilising panels help control excessive movement and protect the ligaments.

💪 Key Benefits
✔ Enhanced Stability
The figure-8 strap design keeps the ankle secure and reduces the risk of rolling or twisting.
✔ Great for Injury Recovery
Ideal for managing mild-to-moderate sprains, chronic ankle instability, and post-injury rehab.
✔ Comfortable & Adjustable
Low-profile, breathable material fits comfortably inside most shoes—perfect for everyday wear or sport.
✔ Proven Prevention
Studies show that using an ankle brace can significantly reduce the risk of ankle sprains, especially for those with previous injuries.

🏃‍♂️ Who Can Benefit?
-Athletes returning to sport
-Anyone with chronic or recurrent ankle sprains
-Individuals needing additional support during daily activities
-People wanting to prevent re-injury after rehab

👣 Available at Well Heeled Podiatry – Hampton
Our podiatrists can help assess your ankle, ensure the brace fits correctly, and guide you on when and how to use it for the best results.
