"What amazed me the most out of that one visit was the removing of the tiniest obstacle from my little toe that caused so much discomfort could bring such instant relief"

"I have raced and have won many races and was hoping for many more. Running off road and trails competitively is very hard on your body and on your feet in particular.
I was bearing more and more injuries and one day it will simply be not possible to race any more. Frustration for someone who loves being out, I felt like a caged lioness.
Foot Mechanics literally returned me back on track.
I think that now I will review my decision to hang my shoes on nail in the garage. Thank you Innes for such a brilliant and professional work! Definitely recommended for athletes who have similar troubles!"

"Dear John,
Thank you to you and your team for taking the time to speak to the practice nurses this month, the feedback was excellent. The nurses really enjoyed the session and said that it was very relevant to general practice and that they gained a lot from it. Without the help of specialists like you we would not be able to provide such good CNE for our nurses."

"I had been having problems with my calf muscles and heels and I was unable to run, do weights or play rugby. Despite having lots of physio, rehab and rest, it was still no better. I went and saw Mark at Foot Mechanics where he did a biomechanical assessment, and fitted my shoes and boots with orthotics. Two weeks later I was training pain free! I was really impressed with how quick and professional Mark was at finding and solving the problem. A massive thanks to Mark and Foot Mechanics for getting me back out on the field."

"I have had the pleasure of three acupuncture sessions at Foot Mechanics Podiatry on Hamilton Street. Although pleasure is not usually a word usually associated with acupuncture, I can happily say that the podiatrist made the treatment as comfortable as it could be. His welcoming attitude and continual conversation meant the treatment was over before I knew it. The improvement was immediate.
As a keen cyclist and a Tauranga Road Cycling Club Committee member, my focus on cycling puts a lot of strain on my body. These treatments and the advice I have received have assisted me in better looking after my body.
After three sessions, I can happily recommend Foot Mechanics Podiatry for any of the treatments they offer. Their staff are very competant and I will definitely be going back for any further treatments."
