We're Sam & Lydia,
founders of
THE MOVEMENT

The Movement is Perth’s first and only podiatry clinic that is dedicated to helping people improve the FORM & FUNCTION of their feet through Prescription Orthotics.

Although this is where the road has led us, we hadn’t always had this vision to create such a clinic.

We had been in the podiatry profession for a decade, doing all the normal things that podiatrists do. 

But we had realised that in all of the work that we did on a daily basis, one thing stood out.

When we would help our clients through the use of custom orthotics, the responses were overwhelmingly different-

“Wow – these orthotics are amazing. What you do is truly life changing”

“How did I not know this after spending years trying to get to the bottom of my problem?

“I wish someone had told me that my feet were the problem ages ago”

It was our clients’ voices that had made us realise the life-changing power of these humble-looking orthotics on people’s ability to move freely and well.

It dawned on us that yes, podiatrists were everywhere and yet there was a gap. 

A gap where FORM (alignment) and FUNCTION (movement) are the sole focus, and the application of PRESCRIPTION ORTHOTICS is educated and executed with expertise.

And that this gap can only be filled by diving deep.

Because it is by diving deep and having a laser focus that our impact can be amplified.

We created The Movement for those who:

Desire a dedicated focus on form and function of the feet and lower limbs

Want someone works with their foot wear choices without judgement

Understand that addressing the root cause is more beneficial in the long run than managing symptoms

Acknowledge the significant role if the feet in their ability to move freely and well now and in the future

Appreciate a practical approach to prescription orthotics

Messages from our clients

Ash
I have had two orthotics made by The Movement custom orthotics and since I started wearing them, my feet and calf pain have resolved! I use the orthotics for my work shoes as I stand/walk a lot in my job and they are so comfortable to wear. Sam was great in assessing and explaining my feet problems and fitting my orthotics.

My two children has been using The movement custom orthotics service for over two years. They are active in sport and the custom orthotics gave the great support on their feet and minimise lots of pain after training and eventually help them build a healthy leg posture in long term. Never thought this foundation support can fix a lot of feet or leg pain, but I did see great improvement in my children now with minimised pain after sport training and good leg posture. Sam is great and attention to detail and patient to make sure the correct measurements for your custom orthotics.

The Orthotics I have now, custom made to my feet have been life savers, I went from daily pain to pain free and a 6 week European holiday walking over 15,000 steps daily with no problem. It's unbelievable and I am very Thankful to Sam and his fantastic Team
