CHILDREN'S PODIATRY
Taking Care of Your Family
Children's feet are different to adults, as they are not yet fully formed. Every child is different and their feet will develop and grow and different rates. During this growth period a number of issues can begin to develop. Problems may include heel pain, flat feet, knee pain, bunions and turned in feet (commonly known as pidgeon toed). Your Podiatrist has the knowledge and expertise to diagnose, manage and treat your child's growing foot.
From School Shoes to Casual Shoes
KIDS FOOTWEAR RECOMMENDATIONS
BOBUX CHILDREN'S SHOES
Bobux kids shoes are great because they are designed with healthy foot development in mind. Bobux make footwear which allows kids feet to behave in a natural way. they have soft flexible soles, they are broad and accomodate the feet well and are light. They also have great designs and styles across their range.
VIVO BAREFOOT KIDS SHOES
Vivobarefoot shoes have ultra-thin, puncture resistant soles to let the 200,000+ neuro-transmitters in kids’ feet feel the ground, while keeping them protected. The more feet can feel, the more the foot-brain connection stays sparking and active.
Thick, cushioned and supportive shoes cut off this all-important feeling, dulling the sensory feedback our brains can get from our feet.
CAMPER KIDS SHOES
Similar to the other options here Camper make shoes designed for feet... funny thought hey?
​
Camper shoes are broad, flexible and light. Again allowing for natural and strong development of our kids feet.
​
Camper are a little more expensive however due to their excellent materials they do last the test of time.
