Do these feet related conditions not sound gross... fungal infections, ingrown toenails, bunions,…read morecorns, hammertoes, athlete's foot and calluses? Now that these and other hidden dilemmas are out in the open thanks to the popular TV show "Embarrassing Bodies" I am happy to speak more openly about my condition. And yes, these feet related situations are most definitely treatable. What better place to pop into than the satellite clinic of Waitakere Foot Podiatry which is located in the treatment rooms at 40 Titirangi Road. There was one particular situation listed above that I recently got advice and treatment on from these professionals. Just like the TV show, I come to discover I'm not the only one to have corns (well I admit I knew this already) however more importantly they are able to be minimized and managed so that they don't develop to grotesque size (I am exaggerating, but you know how it is when something you are aware of seems larger than life). Here is the advice from a toenail polished, sandal wearing grateful client of above business... if you have an embarrassing foot related issue, see a good podiatrist for the solution and go local! Three branches in West Auckland, the New Lynn satellite office has just moved from Titirangi Road to Totara Avenue late March 2013.

I've only ever…read moreseen Janice Woolsey who is an osteopath, but I know there are several other holistic health practitioners that work from here. Janice has done amazing things with my back and most of the cost of her sessions are covered by my health insurance. She can work out any stiffness of the muscle fascia and really knows her stuff; so much so that when my back problem was more serious, she was the one that picked it up. My GP was not convinced that the problem was serious, but on Janice's advice I pushed for the referral and the orthopaedic surgeon MRI-ed me and she was right - I needed surgery. I will be endlessly grateful for her help in getting my problem sorted and would highly recommend her to anyone as an intuitive yet practical therapist who looks at the WHOLE picture and really takes her time to give her clients the best service possible. She cares so much that she even followed up with me by phone and email to see where things were at. She's just lovely.

I went to their practice in absolute agony and was told there was nothing they could do as the pain was due to my scoliosis. Having seen a REAL doctor at another practice, it turns out that they completely missed all of the classic signs of chronic cholecystitis. That's right, there's nothing you can do about gallstones because apparently theyre just symptoms of scoliosis... I would highly recommend staying as far away from these quacks as possible. Find a real doctor, not these shills that prey on the vulnerable.

If you have a niggling sports injury they can set you right with a treatment plan and offer the tips to remedy your problem. I have had a couple of tennis injuries and would probably benefit from their services. Rosie specializes in the sports area so may be my first port of call. Then again Pip has noted this as one of her specialties as well. Their clinic is right next to the pharmacy on Gladstone Road, with a small entrance but they are big on helping manipulate one back to health.

Since my husband experiences pain in his neck and back on a regular basis, I recently had a chat to…read moreregistered osteopath, Dr Ilya Chameris, who works out of his West Harbour clinic, about how osteo could make a difference. He explained the main difference with osteopaths is the holistic approach they take in treating the whole body and not just the symptom. That sounded like a good thing to me. Secondly, the factor that determines good results is the experience and skills of the practitioner. Ilya is also a qualified medical doctor (MD) with specialised qualifications in muscular skeletal medicine. Ilya said it's not just adults but kids and babies too can all benefit from osteopathy to treat a wide range of ailments from back and back pain to joint or muscle pain, jaw pain to headaches.

One of my main criteria was that the physio would be free on ACC, as many physios I contacted charged a surcharge. An extra $11 per session may not seem much but it adds up over 6-8 sessions.
