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.
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.

Students who are given nutritious breakfasts daily make significant improvements in learning, school attendance, behaviour and self-esteem. The School Breakfast Program ensures that children in need have access to a nutritious breakfast in a safe, supervised environment – to help each child start their day ready to learn.
The School Breakfast Program is open to all children. Students may be identified through school staff or parents. The philosophy of the program is that no child/youth is turned away.

This will be her third year riding in the tour, and she had a great time participating! She says "It is a really fun event which raises money for a great cause".
and all other individuals who suffer from carpal tunnel syndrome
It’s obvious you’re a sucker for that age-old sport. But after far too many years of trying to keep that good old mole down, you’ve lost that spring in your wrist.
Lucky for you, David and his physio team know what it takes to get you back into walloping shape.
So stop in one of our newly transformed health centres whenever your body is letting you down.
What is carpal tunnel syndrome?
Carpal tunnel syndrome is common in individuals who perform repetitive wrist motions such as keyboarding, assembly or painting.
Repetitive strain causes swelling in a tunnel that is formed by the carpal bones of the wrist. This tunnel is a passage way for important structures, such as tendons and nerves, to enter the hand. This swelling pinches the structures. Pinching of one important structure, the median nerve, can cause numbness, tingling and weakness of the hand. Pregnancy may also cause swelling in this area leading to carpal tunnel.
Treatment for carpal tunnel includes reducing repetitive strain, ice, stretching and
strengthening. Your Physiotherapist may also use manual therapy and modalities to speed recovery or may suggest a brace.
