Do your feet ache at the end of the day? Do your bunions make you avoid certain shoes – or worse, stop you from doing the things you love? You’re not alone and you don’t have to 'just live with it' anymore.
What causes bunions – and why ignoring them makes it worse
Bunions are more than just a cosmetic issue, it’s not just a bump on the side of your foot, it’s a sign of deeper joint dysfunction. Bunions form when the bones in the front of your foot shift out of alignment. Left untreated, bunions can lead to increased pain and swelling, toe deformities, difficulty walking and early-onset arthritis in the big toe joint.
Everyday activities like walking the dog, wearing your favourite shoes, or standing for long periods can become uncomfortable or even unbearable. And the truth is, bunions don’t just go away on their own they tend to worsen over time if left untreated.
The good news? With the right care, you can slow or stop this progression – and avoid the need for surgery.
How we can help
At Advanced Podiatry Solutions, we help people across Auckland live free from foot pain – without surgery. One of our most powerful tools? A gentle, hands-on technique called Foot Mobilisation Therapy (FMT).
Foot Mobilisation Therapy is a specialised treatment that gently realigns the joints of the feet, especially in people with bunions, collapsed arches, or joint stiffness. Unlike surgery, FMT works with your body to improve joint mobility, restore alignment, and relieve pain – with no downtime and no scalpels.
“Many people come to us thinking surgery is their only option. But once we start correcting the alignment through Foot Mobilisation Therapy, they often feel a huge difference within a few sessions. It’s about treating the cause, not just the symptoms.” - Mohammad Algharaibeh, Lead Podiatrist
