Are you struggling with heel pain?
Pain under your heel, stiffness in the morning, or discomfort after standing or exercise?
You’re not alone — heel pain is extremely common and often gets worse if ignored.
Many people experience:
- Sharp pain with first steps in the morning
- Pain after rest or sitting
- Discomfort during walking or exercise
- Ongoing tightness in the foot or calf
The most common cause is plantar fasciitis, where the tissue under your foot becomes irritated from overload and stress
Most people ignore foot pain until it becomes chronic. Take this 60-second quiz to find out if you should see a podiatrist.

Frequently asked questions
Everything You Need To Know Before Booking
Is heel pain the same as plantar fasciitis?
Not always. Plantar fasciitis is the most common cause, but heel pain can also come from the Achilles tendon, nerves, or other structures.
Why is my heel pain worse in the morning?
This is a classic sign of plantar fasciitis. The tissue tightens overnight and becomes painful when you first load it.
What happens at my first appointment?
Your initial consultation includes:
• A full history and foot assessment
• Biomechanical & gait analysis (if relevant)
• Treatment on the day
• A clear management plan
You’ll leave knowing exactly what’s going on and what to do next.
Do you offer custom orthotics?
Yes.
We provide 3D-scanned custom orthotics tailored to your foot shape, activity level, and footwear.
They’re commonly prescribed for:
• Plantar fasciitis
• Flat feet / high arches
• Shin splints
• Knee pain
• Sports injuries
• Growing kids
How long does heel pain take to heal?
With the right treatment, most cases improve over weeks to months. Early treatment leads to faster recovery.
Do you treat athletes and runners?
Yes — sports podiatry is a major focus.
We help with:
• Running injuries
• Achilles pain
• Stress injuries
• Forefoot pain
• Load management advice
• Return-to-sport planning
Do you treat children?
Yes.
We assess and manage:

• Growing pains
• Heel pain (Sever’s)

Early assessment can prevent long-term issues.
Should I rest or keep moving?
Complete rest isn’t usually the answer. We guide you on how to load the foot correctly to promote healing.
Do I need orthotics?
Not always. We only recommend orthotics if they are necessary to reduce load and improve your outcome.
Can heel pain become chronic?
Yes — if left untreated, it can persist and become harder to resolve over time.
What causes heel pain?
Common causes include overuse, poor footwear, tight calf muscles, and increased stress on the foot. These factors can overload the plantar fascia and lead to pain
