🧠 Chronic Pain: Is it all in your brain?

Over the past two weeks, we have been debating this big question with our physio colleagues.

The answer? It’s complicated.

Pain is real, but pain doesn’t always equal tissue damage and vice versa.
That’s because pain is influenced by much more than the tissues alone — including the brain, past experiences, expectations, emotions and context. So saying pain is influenced by the brain doesn’t mean “it’s all in your head.” It means pain is complex.

🦶 The tissues matter.
🧠 The brain matters.
👤 And the person matters.

A great two weeks of discussion, debating and learning with our physio colleagues and fabulous judging panel! 👏

On the weekend, our podiatrists attended the Australian Podiatry Association’s ‘From Scan to Solution Symposium’, courtesy of the support of the Rural Doctors Workforce Agency Inc.

Our team refreshed and expanded their knowledge across a range of podiatry topics, from when to escalate ingrown toenail management to assessing and treating foot and ankle pain, as well as discussing emerging treatment options.

At Nurture Podiatry, we’re committed to our professional development to provide our patients with a high level of care.

🦶 Neurological Assessments Matter!

Did you know the nerves in your feet play an important role in keeping you safe and steady on your feet?

During a neurological assessment, we use a 10g monofilament to test protective sensation and a 128Hz tuning fork to assess vibration sense. These simple, painless tests help us identify changes in nerve function that may increase the risk of unnoticed injuries, balance problems, and falls.

Early detection of nerve changes allows us to put strategies in place to help protect your feet and improve stability.

✔️ Quick and painless
✔️ Helps identify nerve changes early
✔️ Assesses sensation, balance, and fall risk
✔️ An important part of diabetic foot care
