City to Bay- "From City to Blisters"

24/9/2010

0 Comments

 
This years city to bay was a cracker! Perched at the finish line we massaged, kneaded, and even got to touch celebrity tooshy! (even if it was just to change his stitches dressing, we still thought it was pretty good!). In addition to massaging runners and patching up A-Lister's, we found ourselves dealing with a sea of blisters. Small blisters, large blisters, deep and shallow, we saw them all. This got us thinking..... Many of the runners had spent hours upon hours training for the city to bay, yet only a few had preparing their feet for the run. So we've decided to write a list of some of the simple ways you can prepare your feet for the race.

  1. Make sure your feet are nice and dry- in some cases Antiperspirant agents can be used.
  2. Wear good shoes - make sure you also check for seems and areas that could rub
  3. Neoprene insoles will reduce the likely hood of blisters on the soles of your feet
  4. Wear silicon toe covers if you've had blisters between your toes before
  5. Wear acrylic-based socks that reduce the drag on your feet
  6. Pack some antiseptic and band-aids for the finish line just in case.
For more tips feel free to visit our section on blisters

1 Comment

 
Today we walked with Novita in their annual "Walk with Me" challenge at the Adelaide Botanic Gardens. Pictured is our Head Podiatrist, Anna Morgan (Left) with Novita Ambassador and Inspirational Speaker, Michele Colmer (right). Michele has been unrelenting in her quest to rebuild her entire life following a tragic accident and her story leaves a footprint that is both rich and authentic. Along with PERSISTENCE Michele reminds us that life needs to be lived and enjoyed! Michele is a close friend and a familiar face to the Podantics team and were honored to have walked with her today.

We love our sports, and running is no exception!

We look forward to a great day of fun filled adventure and look forward to assisting the runners as they arrive at the finish line.  We will be working at the SAFM tent along side the fabulous girls from Bodyline Health, so if your in the area, come down and say hi!

August 2010- What a rush!

1/9/2010

0 Comments

 
Its been a crazy over the past month at Podantics. Firstly we have officially merged Malvern Podiatry Clinic, Hyde Park Podiatry and Podantics together into our new clinic at 248 Unley Rd, Hyde Park. There is still a lot to do but we are certainly on our way! We have also played host to 3 of the sweetest podiatry students this week with a little biomechanics boot camp to help them with their studies. And as if that wasnt enough adventure, we've had new floor boards installed at magill, designed new signage for unley, have worked on developing a new range of creams, have given advice for the radio, and have been working on our key note speach for the Allied Health Network Australia at the Hilton this month as well as 100 other things.  WOW what a month!
No one is ever bored around us, but then, thats the way we like it. Keeping it fresh, keeping it modern and keeping it real!

Finally our new look design has been finished to compliment our black and white feel. Never fear, all of the same information remains, and all new stuff will be added soon. Our previous site which we also loved very much will be missed, but it was time for a change. Thanks to all of those who were involved in getting our site up and ready for spring 2010! This one will be a big one!

Christmas Feet

20/12/2008

0 Comments

 

It was the night before Christmas and all through the house not a creature was stirring not even a mouse!.......

I wish! ....... as far as my life goes, the night before Christmas is nothing but quiet! After a night of Christmas Eve activities, most girls are already feeling the effects of the festive season on their feet.  So, heres my top tips for protecting your feet from harm this christmas:

1) prepare ahead: Its important to match your shoes to the amount of walking you'll be doing in the lead up to Christmas and New Years. My general rule of thumb is "the more walking you do, the lower the heel height and more comfortable the shoe should be"

2) When wearing high heels, keep a pair of flat's on hand no matter where you go: It doesnt take much to throw a pair of flat shoes or sandals in the car with you when you leave the house. With so much shopping and last minute preparations to do, you never know where the wind may take you, but at least you know you'll be floating through the day.

3) Become friends with gel inserts and fashion orthotics. Sounds dull, i know, but i can guarantee these little gems are a girls best friend if done right!  Just make sure that you have enough room in your shoes before you try and cramp a insert into an already tight shoe.  You can often find these tit bits at your local pharmacy in foot care section, or if your as lucky as me, you have a whole shelf of these little toys at work (which i have nicked named the "fancy feet department")

Whilst nothing compares to the comfort of a good pair of Ugh boots, we can help you get a little closer. So why not give your feet the gift of comfort this year and enjoy the day!
