What is CHIROPODY anyway?

The practice of Chiropody (Ker-o-pody) is the assessment of the foot and the treatment and prevention of diseases or disorders of the foot by therapeutic, surgical, orthotic, pharmaceutical and palliative means. In a nutshell, Chiropodists are foot specialists.  They treat everything and anything foot-related.

Why see a Chiropodist for your foot problems?

Would you see your eye doctor for a toothache? Of course not, so it's important to see a foot health expert for your foot pain or problem. Chiropodists are highly educated, highly skilled foot health practitioners, who undergo 7-8 years of post-graduate education prior to becoming licenced. Members of the College of Chiropodists of Ontario are the only provincially regulated foot health specialists. They are exclusively trained and licensed to practise foot health. It's your assurance of the most comprehensive foot medicine available by practitioners regulated to the highest standards of care.

At We-Fix-U Physiotherapy and Foot Health Centres, our Chiropodists are leaders in the areas of biomechanics and orthotics, pediatrics, diabetic foot health and surgical intervention (when necessary).  If you would like to speak with a member of our Chiropody team, please visit us at www.we-fix-u.com for our clinic locations.
