  • Your feet in flip flops - Summer foot care advice

    So...are your feet in flip flops the best idea? Or should you be looking at other options?


    Summer has arrived! And yes, although it always seems like sunny summer days last for about a week here in the UK, it's still summer! In our latest episode of the NK Active podcast we are discussing all things related to summer footwear. There are hundreds of varieties of summer shoes and sandals out there, and it can be quite overwhelming to try and work out what type of style is suitable for you. However, there are some characteristics, which will make some shoes more desirable than others. 


    Did you know that we now have a foot health check service here at the clinic? Find out more about why you should be getting your feet checked and book an appointment.

  • Functional Podiatry with Dr Emily Splichal

    How does podiatry differ between the UK & USA?  For this weeks episode of the NK Active podcast we were very pleased to interview an international guest. Dr Emily Splichal practices functional podiatry in the United States. Functional podiatry looks at the body from an integrated perspective. The approach to podiatry in the US is slightly different to the way we approach it here in the UK and with this in mind we were keen to explore this in more detail within the interview.  Podiatry in the united stated is heavily focused on surgery. Emily trained as a surgeon and practiced surgery for five years before moving towards functional movement, functional medicine and regenerative medicine. She now refers to herself as a human movement specialist.

  • Plantar Plate Injuries | Tips and Tricks

    What is the plantar plate? Why does it get injured? And some tip and tricks to fix it...


    This week the NK Active podcast is talking all about one of our favourite topics...plantar plate injuries! 

    The chances are that you most probably don't even know what the plantar plate is and the injuries associated with it, but it is most probably one of the most common conditions that we see here in clinic. And it's the one condition that we have people drive for multiple hours to come see us. We also help manage people remotely from all parts of the world.

  • How to get holiday ready! | Disney Feet | The NK Active Podcast

    In this weeks episode of the NK Active podcast, Nick is joined by Dave, our rehabilitation specialist here at NK Active. And we'll be talking all about getting holiday ready. So what do we mean by that? Well, if you think about it, if you're going to do a marathon, you will tend to train for it. If you're going on a skiing holiday, you tend to try and do some ski based exercises in the gym for a couple of months beforehand, ideally. But actually, do you train if you're going on a long walking holiday around New York City? Or do you train if you're going to start spending a week walking around Disney World in America? Disney Feet, as its commonly known, is a real condition!

  • Posture. What's it all about!? | NK Active Podcast

    In the latest episode of the NK Active podcast Nick is joined by Dave, one of the rehabilitation specialists here at NK Active, to discuss posture and whether there really is such a thing as having a "bad" posture.

    We've all heard the word posture, it's one of those words that's thrown around.Then when you try and define what it is? Well, it's how you hold yourself, it's where your spine is, it's where it is in a standing or sitting posture, carrying posture, sleeping posture and so forth.

    Is there are correct posture? No.

    There is a posture that's right for you for the task that you're doing away from this historic, upright, perfect spinal position. Everything is very even in the medical world, int that neutral position, but we have to be able to move out of that and do things in different positions.

    We do hope you find todays podcast interesting. If there is anything from today’s discussion that has made an impact or resonates with you then please do reach out and have a chat with us here at NK Active.

  • Working feet and foot health | NK Active Podcast

    Working feet was the theme of this years foot health week, a national campaign led by the Royal College of Podiatry with a focus on getting people to think more about their feet and how to look after them.

    In this weeks episode of the NK Active podcast Nick is joined by fellow podiatrist and colleague Jonathon Small as they discuss at length the impact of the working environment on our feet and some of the common causes of foot pain and injury due to the nature of our chosen professions.

    This episode not only covers some of the common ailments we can face from not being aware of our environment but also the affect that the pandemic has had on many of us since transitioning back into the workplace after spending months potentially working from our homes.

    Did you know that on average an employee working from a home office would usually take around 2000 steps a day compared to someone commuting and visiting their standard place of work where they could easily average 15-20,000 steps in a day. This can have a massive impact on our bodies as we look to head back to “normal” working life again.

    We do hope you find todays podcast interesting. If there is anything from today’s discussion that has made an impact or resonates with you and your own working feet then please do reach out and have a chat with us here at NK Active.

  • Ingrowing Toenail Causes and When to Seek Help | Nk Active Podcast | Foot Health Week 2022

    Did you know that this week is Foot Health week 2022?


    And this year the Royal College of Podiatry is focusing particularly on you and your feet in the workplace and the problems that can arise from spending long periods of time on your feet.

    However, we thought we'd focus on another problem that can arise from spending long periods of time on your feet, ingrowing toenail causes and when to seek help. And with that, welcome to episode 13 of the NK Active podcast. In this latest episode NK Active director Nick Knight joins Doctor Charlotte Dando to talk all about ingrowing toenail causes and exactly when the right time to seek help is.


    You need to be looking after those feet and toenails of yours. If you're experiencing any kind of pain on a regular basis we strongly advise that you come and get yourself checked out.

    After all, you only get one pair of feet. You need to look after them!
