Foot and heel care for Graceville families
Does your child have heel pain, flat feet or feet that turn in? Graceville families can book at Align HC Indooroopilly, on the other side of the Brisbane River. What does a first visit cost? For new patients, it is $99 with assessment included. Eligible health fund rebates may apply. Further treatment and devices have variable costs; ask the clinic before booking.
Adults can book for heel or ankle pain, an ingrown toenail or a foot skin problem. Indooroopilly is two stations towards the city from Graceville, with Chelmer in between. No GP referral is needed. Check available appointments online before choosing a time, or call the clinic.
Help with skin and nail problems
You can also see a podiatrist for foot skin and nail problems. At Indooroopilly, general foot care covers corns, calluses, cracked heels and athlete’s foot.
Care also covers ingrown toenails, thickened nails and fungal nails.
Podiatry or physiotherapy?
Podiatrists focus on the foot and ankle. Physiotherapists cover a broader range of musculoskeletal problems, including the legs, hips and lower back. Both services operate at the Indooroopilly clinic.


What happens at your first appointment
Your first appointment includes an assessment of your feet, gait analysis and a footwear check. The podiatrist also talks through a treatment plan. Procedures such as nail surgery are discussed with your full consent. Whether treatment happens at this visit, and what it costs, depends on what you need.
Bring your everyday shoes or sports footwear, any imaging or reports, and your Medicare and private health cards if applicable. Bring GP referral paperwork if you have it. Wear comfortable clothing that allows the problem area to be assessed. Ask the clinic how long to allow for this visit.



Children’s feet, everyday foot care and heel pain
Children’s foot care includes assessment of growth-related concerns such as in-toeing, flat feet and heel pain, along with footwear advice. At the Indooroopilly appointment, the podiatrist can review how your child’s usual shoes fit and whether they suit the activities your child does.
Care for heel pain, plantar fasciitis and sports injuries can include gait analysis, a biomechanical assessment and a tailored exercise program alongside treatment. Footwear advice is based on your foot shape and activities. The podiatrists treating you at Indooroopilly are registered with AHPRA.

Foot checks for diabetes and neuropathy
The clinic provides neurovascular assessments for people with diabetes or neuropathy. Care also covers arthritis, nerve issues and circulatory problems.
Shockwave therapy for persistent pain
Shockwave therapy is used for stubborn plantar fasciitis and other long-standing pain. It is a non-invasive treatment that sends high-energy sound waves into sore tissue. Ask the clinic whether it is relevant to your foot concern and what it costs.
Orthotics and footwear
Where alignment is the problem, the podiatrist may prescribe custom orthotics. They are recommended only when clinically necessary and cost extra. Prices vary, so ask the clinic before booking. Footwear advice is matched to your foot shape and activities.

Covers All Your Needs
Podiatry, physiotherapy and remedial massage run out of the same Indooroopilly clinic, so a referral is down the hallway rather than across town.

Care Beyond Your Feet
Foot pain often starts higher up. If your knee, hip or back is driving it, the physiotherapy team is in the same building.
