Last updated on 9 October 2025 by Brisbane Livewell Clinic Editorial Team

On Your Feet All Day – But Struggling with Pain?

Foot pain, arch discomfort or stabbing heel pain can affect everything from work and exercise to sleep. Plantar fasciitis is one of the most common causes of heel pain, often linked to overuse, biomechanics, or poor support. Glenn Strutt provides personalised Osteopathy sessions to support mobility, reduce load, and improve foot mechanics.

Appointments are available at our Cannon Hill Clinic.

How Glenn Strutt Supports Foot Pain and Heel Discomfort

Glenn takes a full-body approach to foot pain. He examines the foot structure, ankle motion, leg alignment and even hip control to understand what’s driving your symptoms.

Hands-on care is used to release tight structures, mobilise restricted joints and adjust biomechanics. He’ll also provide activity and footwear advice as part of a practical Wellness Plan tailored to your foot function and day-to-day needs.
