Our focus is also to make sure you are treated with techniques that suit your needs so you can feel great, while providing you with honest feedback and advice about your health and wellbeing. We will always provide you with all your management options and assist you in making decisions regarding your care with integrity.

Custom Fit Corrective Orthotics:
Tamara, our senior Chiropractor, is also able to perform lower limb biomechanical assessments and produce custom fitted corrective orthotics. These can cater for many simple foot, leg and hip biomechanical issues. Corrective orthotics can assist in the treatment of foot pain (arch, heel and other pain), leg and knee pain, hip and low back pain and discomfort or aching of the lower limb. The orthotics produced are a dual-density EVA heat-mouldable orthotics. These are a brilliant product which Tamara endorses and uses personally. They work out very economical for people who require support and have basic biomechanical issues with their lower limb and feet. A half-hour assessment can be booked at both our Mareeba and Atherton clinics. At this appointment, Tamara will assess the biomechanics of your lower limb, give advice on management options and if required, fit you with a pair of corrective orthotics. If you have a more complex requirement, Tamara will advise you on this and provide a referral to a trusted local Podiatrist for a more detailed assessment.
