What do Podiatrists Actually Do? And When Should You See Them? 


In this episode, I’m answering a question that so many of you have asked and that is how do I know whether I should see a podiatrist OR another health professional?

Podiatrists have trained for 4 years in Australia and although they are foot health professionals that's not all they look after and can help with. 


This episode is for you if you…

👣 Are UNSURE about what podiatrists actually do 

👣 Have ever been to see a podiatrist before and just got given orthotics (This is a BIG no no) 

👣 Have pain anywhere in your body that won’t go away

👣 Want to know what to ask your health professional and when you should seek a second opinion
