Children’s feet change quickly. Between growth spurts, new shoes, sport, and busy school days, a lot can happen in over a year

An annual foot and lower limb assessment with Functional Soles Podiatry is simply a way to make sure those growing feet are tracking well and keeping up with everything your child loves to do. 

Why school age is a great time to check in

We offer our back to school kids foot check for those aged 4-17. Children place a lot of new demands on their feet at school. With longer days, more sport, and increased activity all mean feet are working hard. Children’s feet also change rapidly, with changes happening to their foot length, arch shape and knee position. 

A friendly, relaxed environment

At Functional Soles Podiatry, kids’ foot assessments are designed to be fun and friendly. We take time to look at how your child stands, walks, and moves, and we chat with both you and your child about what they enjoy doing. But don’t expect boring assessments from us. Expect fun task-based activities and most definitely a running race or two!

Back-to-school special

To support families during the back-to-school period, Functional Soles Podiatry is offering 50% off kids’ health foot assessments throughout January and February. It’s an easy way to tick off an important check as the school year begins.

Growing feet deserve a little attention along the way. An annual foot assessment is a simple habit that helps keep kids moving comfortably, confidently, and happily.
