No Surgery:
The 2 common conditions where surgery is often recommended are:
- Morton’s Neuroma (nerve irritation/entrapment in the forefoot).
- Bunion (bone and/or bursa enlargement at the big toe joint).
Both of these conditions are caused or aggravated by improper bony position and/or function due to excessive compensation.

Pre-treatment bunion angle of 28° |
After treatment bunion angle of 16° |
Corrective Care at the Foot & Leg Centre works to reduce the compensation and encourage the body’s own repair resources to work more effectively. When this is achieved, surgery is less necessary.
The Foot & Leg Centre will refer to surgeons when necessary. We believe, however, that surgery should be a last resort. Corrective Care is an effective non-surgical option.
