Foot and ankle rehabilitation in Ballymena

Foot and ankle problems can quietly alter the way you walk, which then affects your knees, hips and overall posture. At Get In Step Podiatry, led by HCPC-registered Chiropodist Dr. Elaine Hoey, we take a clinical, evidence-led approach to lower limb pain, starting with why the problem started, not just how it looks today.

For patients in Ballymena, our foot and ankle rehabilitation programme combines specialist chiropody assessment with gait analysis and postural analysis. By pinpointing abnormal pressure and movement patterns, we can target the root cause of pain from the foot through to the supporting chain of the leg.

Whether you are dealing with ankle sprains, tendon or joint pain, recurring plantar heel discomfort, or functional issues that flare during sport or daily activity, Elaine’s practice focuses on accurate diagnosis and clear, practical treatment planning. This may include targeted therapies, supportive footwear advice and, where appropriate, custom orthotics to restore alignment and reduce strain during walking, running and standing.

Patients with diabetes also receive careful, specialist attention. Rehabilitation and ongoing foot health support can help reduce risk, improve comfort and promote confidence, particularly when circulation, sensation or skin integrity need additional monitoring.

You can expect a welcoming, professional service at our Henry Street clinic in Ballymena. Each care plan is tailored to your goals, your symptoms and your day-to-day lifestyle.
