Do you suffer with pain in the middle of your foot?
Midfoot pain is a common finding here in ZW Clinics and can significantly affect day to day life and activity. It can be caused by trauma, overuse and biomechanical dysfunction.
The most common reasons we see midfoot pain are:
Arthritis
Trauma/ injury to the dorsum (top) of the foot
Nerve compression
Tendinopathy
Ligament injuries
Your first appointment will need to be an Initial Consultation:

Initial Musculoskeletal (MSK) Consultation
Pain inside the foot or lower limb? Joint, muscle, tendon or difficulty when walking or performing your favourite activities? This is the appointment for you and is the first step on your journey to becoming pain free. In this appointment you will get the chance to have a one-to-one with an experienced podiatrist. The podiatrist will plan the best course of action moving forward.
The appointment you may need following your Initial MSK Consultation...

Musculoskeletal (MSK) Analysis
Pain inside the foot or lower limb? Joint, muscle, tendon or difficulty when walking or performing your favourite activities? This is the appointment for you. We will conduct a full and thorough medical history before assessing your foot & lower limb pain, structure and strength.


Advanced Musculoskeletal (MSK) Analysis
An entirely new way to view gait assessment. Our mission with this ground breaking technology is to show you the “whys” of what could be going wrong when you move. "The movement MRI".
We feel very lucky to be exclusively offering this state of the art technology to Cumbria and surrounding areas. This is our most extensive method of gait.

How we treat midfoot pain...
As always, we aim to gain a diagnosis as quickly as possible in order to manage the midfoot pain appropriately and in a timely manner to get you back doing the things you love. Midfoot pain may be treated using a specific rehabilitation programme, footwear changes, orthoses/insoles, steroid injection therapy and in some cases onward referral to a foot & ankle surgeon.
How can we treat it: Orthoses/insoles, Footwear modification, Rehabilitation programmes, Steroid injection therapy, Taping, Shockwave Therapy (Tendinopathies)



Orthotics
Orthoses/Insoles come in all shapes and sizes. We have an expert team specialising in the prescription of Custom made and over the counter devices. All Custom devices are Cast via 3D Scan, Foam Impression or Plaster of Paris.



Shockwave Therapy
Treatment for Tendinopathies and Plantar Fasciitis/Fasciopathy recognised by NICE Guidelines. Shockwave therapy is a non-invasive treatment that involves creating a series of high energy acoustic waves that are directly delivered to an injury through contact with the skin via an ultrasound gel medium.



Rehabilitation Program
We use specialist software and a multidisciplinary team who work together with you to achieve the best outcomes from your custom rehabilitation program.



HOKA Fitting Consultation
We stock a wide range of HOKA shoes ranging from everyday to off-trail outdoors. Come in and have a FREE fitting consult with an expert so that you get the right shoe for you. Did you know that Zoe Wilson was the first podiatrist to use this footwear alongside treatments?
