⚽️ World Cup 2026 is on the horizon and whether you’re dreaming of lifting the trophy or just turning out for your local Sunday league team, it all starts with your feet.

Many of the world’s top footballers use the Footscan technology I use to understand how their feet move, load and perform. But this isn’t just for elite athletes.

At Valentines Podiatry, I use Footscan to help people from all walks of life – footballers, runners, gym-goers, dog walkers, busy mums, active grandparents and anyone who wants to move more comfortably.

👣 A Footscan assessment can help identify:
✅ Areas of excessive pressure
✅ Imbalances between left and right feet
✅ Gait and movement patterns
✅ Potential causes of foot, heel, ankle, knee or lower limb pain

Whether you’re chasing a football around a pitch, training for a 10k, or simply wanting to stay active without aches and pains, understanding how your feet function is often the first step.

After all, every journey starts from the ground up. 👣

If you’d like to learn more about your feet and how they move, book online

Good luck to anyone running the Manchester Great run this weekend!

https://www.greatrun.org/events/great-manchester-run/

Few tips .. Don’t wear brand new trainers for race day
• Cut your toenails before the race, not the night before
• Run in the socks you have trained in ( washed of course )
• Take some plain blister plasters on your run
• Stretch well beforehand

Most running injuries don’t just suddenly appear… there’s usually been little warning signs for weeks.

If your feet, knees, Achilles or hips are starting to complain during training, get them looked at early rather than trying to push through it 👣

Good luck to everyone training at the moment. The commitment runners put in is impressive .

I have attached the link which has all the info you should need on the day.
I will be going to watch and support Carlie Valleley who is running for dementia and Karen Ryan, our local postie who is running for Lewy body dementia charity and she is running in memory of my dad ❤️
I will put their links in comments for anyone wishing to support.

What do runners like Paula Radcliffe, Mo Farah and Eilish McColgan have in common? 👟

They’ve all had an assessment with the exactly same foot scan technology I use in clinic.

With running season mid flow , I’m seeing runners building their miles…and coming in for help with their stability.

The footscan shows things like:

* if one foot is doing more work than the other
* if you’re rolling in or out too much
* where you’re putting too much pressure
* little instabilities you wouldn’t feel… until you do!

(So definitely not just for runners, this is for everyone🦶)

The best bit?
We can catch things early — before it turns into plantar fasciitis, knee pain or one of those niggles that stops your training.

If you’re starting to up your distance, now’s the time to check in — I also check your running shoes as well as your daily use shoes to check they are also suitable and not likely to cause any injury outside of your activities.

If you want help getting set up properly (whether that’s advice, exercises, insoles or bespoke orthotics if needed), book in for a gait analysis

I’ve had one of those weeks where I’ve walked out thinking… I actually love what I do.

Not just because of the treatments — but the people I get to meet. I really look forward to each and everyone of you coming in.

I have treated a mix of everything in the last week— sore feet, blisters, thick nails, verrucas, corns, long nails, hard skin, ankle pain and foot pain… all the stuff people put up with for ages before finally booking in.

Seen a few runners as well who’ve clearly pushed themselves (fair play 👏🏼) but now paying for it a bit. During a full biomechanical assessment and gait analysis — I check how their feet naturally align , then ask them to stand up and then walk, a bit of honest advice on footwear, and getting the right insoles if they need them. Both footwear and orthotics ( insoles) makes a bigger difference than people think.

Sorted some sore heels too — the kind where your first few steps in the morning are awful. Used shockwave to help calm that down.

And one of my favourites this week ( apart from the 99 year old (very fit and healthy) patient whose eldest child is 80! And I thought my kids were old at 19 and 24) was helping someone feel good about their nail again before going on holiday with nail reconstruction. It’s not always about pain, sometimes it’s just about confidence.

Every appointment’s different, every person’s different — and that’s what I love most.

All new patients, I do a full foot health check and footwear assessment.

Always relaxed, friendly and no judgement. AND if you need extra time if anxious etc then please let me know by calling me and I will ensure you have the time you need at no extra cost.

I've only got a few appointments left over the Bank Holiday weekend if you want to get in and join me at Valentines Podiatry🦶

Hi!
If I haven't met or treated you already, I'm Suzanne, your local, professional and friendly podiatrist at Valentine’s Podiatry ( at JP Injury & rehab clinic in Cadishead).

I help people get back to walking comfortably.

I offer routine foot care, diabetic checks including using a state of the art pressure plate to help prevent future problems , gait analysis and orthotics ( checking how you stand and walk), nail reconstruction and shockwave therapy ( brilliant for soft tissue injuries ) as well as advice and plans.

Feet are often the last thing people get checked, but they affect everything — knees, hips, back, balance, and confidence. My job is to work out what’s actually going on and give clear, honest advice and treatment.

If you’ve been:
• putting up with sore or tired feet
• struggling with hard skin, nail problems or pain
• compensating when you walk
• or thinking “I should really get this looked at…”

You’re exactly who I see every day.

I’m proud to offer professional, straightforward foot care right here in the local community — and I genuinely love helping people move better again.

💘 A Little Valentine’s Love from Valentine’s Podiatry 💘

Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
This Valentine’s card
Is written for you!

To my lovely patients — old and new,
Today is about love… and that includes YOU.

Yes, I’d love you to moisturise, stretch and rest your feet,
(They do work very hard — they deserve a treat!)
But more than smooth heels and perfectly trimmed toes,
It’s loving yourself that truly shows.

So book the massage, take the break,
Enjoy a treat (whatever choice you make!).
Because healthy feet are only part —
Self-care starts with your heart 💕

Thank you for trusting me with your care —
I genuinely love what I do, and I’m so grateful you’re there.

Happy Valentine’s Day ❤️
Suzanne
