book an appointmentShaun McCann – has considerable experience with manual podiatry therapies and the management of lower limb problems. Having prescribed orthotic therapy for several years, Shaun recognised the limitations of orthotics beyond the treatment of symptoms.
Frustrated with the confines of traditional podiatry, Shaun undertook postgraduate training in FMT in Sydney – a technique that he believes can not only alleviate foot pain, but correct foot function and structure in the long term. Having personally dealt with foot problems, Shaun underwent a course of FMT himself, to ensure that he could provide his Tauranga patients with the best level of care. He is now confident in saying that he no longer relies on orthotics and his feet feel stronger.
Before pursuing my studies in podiatry, I was highly active in football but frequently side-lined by stubborn injuries that significantly impacted my motivation and love for the sport. Additionally, through coaching youth football since 2018, I learned the need for early intervention to not only heal, but also prevent injuries later in life. My journey into podiatry truly began during my education when I was offered a placement at Corrective Foot Solutions. There, I discovered the unique side of podiatry: Foot Mobilization Therapy (FMT) — a highly effective yet often underutilized treatment method. This therapy greatly aids in recovery from injuries, improves foot function, and reduces pain. When combined with exercise prescription, strapping, acupuncture, and dry needling, it yields remarkable results. At our clinics in Parnell and Takapuna in Auckland, I am dedicated to helping my patients achieve their goals and overcome the frustrations of injuries and foot pain. Drawing from my personal experiences, I am motivated to guide and support my patients on their journey to recovery.
