Our Four Step Approach (Education, Offload, Rebuild and Accelerate)
By following these steps in order, you’re on a path to a smoother recovery, and we’re here to guide you at every stage. Your well-being is our primary concern, and we’re committed to helping you achieve the best possible outcome.
Step 1: Understanding Your Condition (Education)
At Sky Podiatry, our priority is to ensure you have all the information you need. Take some time to understand your condition, what’s causing it, and the treatment options available to you. Knowledge is empowering, and it’ll help you make informed decisions about your care. Remember, we’re here to support you every step of the way.
Step 2: Enhancing Comfort (Offloading)
Now that you have a better grasp of your condition, let’s focus on improving your comfort. In the “Offload” phase, we often recommend orthotic devices customized just for you. These will help your body work more efficiently, reduce strain, and promote a sense of relative rest. This is a crucial step to minimize discomfort and support your body’s natural healing process.
Step 3: Regaining Strength and Mobility (Rebuilding)
As you start feeling more comfortable, our next goal is to help you regain your strength, stability, and mobility. In the “Empowering Daily Functionality” phase, we aim to get you back to handling your daily tasks with ease. We may even suggest you see specialized practitioners like physiotherapists and exercise physiologists who are experts at optimizing your daily functionality. This step is all about improving your overall well-being.
Step 4: Speeding Up Recovery (Accelerate)
Finally, in the “Accelerate” phase, we’ll work on speeding up your recovery and reducing any remaining discomfort. This may involve treatments like shockwave therapy and other options. Our main priority here is to ensure you heal quickly and experience relief from any lingering pain.
