Like all joints, the small joints in the feet are prone to wear and tear and can become quite painful. Sometimes foot pain can be caused by nerve entrapment in the spine.

Careful examination is needed to determine the exact cause of foot pain and the most effective treatment options.

Here at Riverside Chiropractor Clinic, Cork, we also use hi-tech Gaitscan technology to analyse specific foot problems that will respond to the use of orthotics - a prescription insole that is built according to a scan of your foot and your 'gait' - ie, how you walk. Custom foot orthotics are designed to alleviate foot pain and help correct your walking gait.
