Appointment length: Initial assessments are typically 45-60 minutes. Follow-up appointments are 30-45 minutes.

Frequently Asked Questions

No. You can book directly, no referral needed. That said, many GPs do provide referrals, and if you have one, bring it along. It’s just not a requirement.

No, we don’t bulk bill Medicare. There is always a gap fee. However, if you have an Enhanced Primary Care (EPC) plan from your GP, you can claim a Medicare rebate for part of the cost.

Yes. We accept HICAPS at both the Hall and Garran locations, so you can claim your private health rebate on the spot.

Yes. We accept DVA Gold and White cards. For NDIS, we accept self-managed and third-party managed plans (we cannot process NDIA portal-managed plans).

Yes. ADF patients will need a referral from their unit, which is standard practice for defence-referred appointments.

We appreciate 24 hours’ notice if you need to cancel or reschedule, so we can offer the spot to another patient. We understand things come up, just let us know as soon as you can.

Shorts, leggings, or activewear that allows us to see and assess your lower limbs properly. If you’re coming from work, you’re welcome to change when you arrive.

Your most-worn shoes, any sports shoes relevant to your issue, imaging results if you have them, and any referral letters. Your Medicare card if you’re claiming under an EPC plan.

Absolutely. While our name includes “Sports Rehab,” we treat people of all activity levels. If your goal is running a marathon or walking the dog pain-free, we’ll build a plan around what matters to you. You don’t need to play sport to benefit from what we do.

Typically 45-60 minutes. We take the time to properly assess your movement, strength, and gait so we can build an accurate, personalised plan from day one.

Follow-ups are 30-45 minutes, depending on your treatment plan and what we need to cover.

Yes. If your preferred time isn’t available, call us or send an email and we’ll add you to our cancellation list. We also triage urgent referrals from surgeons and specialists, so let us know if your situation is time-sensitive.

Not unless there’s a genuine red flag like a stress fracture. In most cases, we’ll modify your training load and use adjunct therapies to manage pain so you can keep running safely while you recover. Our goal is always to keep you moving.

Kenny is a podiatrist and ASCA-accredited Strength and Conditioning Coach who specialises in lower limb biomechanics. The focus is specifically on the hip, knee, ankle, and foot, combining biomechanical assessment with progressive strength and conditioning. We work alongside physiotherapists and other practitioners, and many of our patients are referred by physios, sports doctors, and surgeons.

Not necessarily. We’ll always work around whatever access you have. Many exercises can be done at home with minimal equipment. If gym access would benefit your program, we’ll let you know, but it’s never a barrier to getting started.

It depends on your condition, its severity, and how consistently you do your exercises. Some patients see significant improvement in a few sessions. Others with chronic or post-surgical conditions may need a longer rehabilitation period. We’ll give you a realistic expectation at your first appointment.

Both. Kenny provides joint mobilisation, dry needling, and shockwave therapy as part of your treatment when needed. These hands-on therapies are used alongside your exercise program. They help reduce pain and improve movement so you can load and strengthen the area effectively.

Not always, but orthotics work best in supportive shoes with enough depth and space. We’ll assess your current footwear and let you know. For everyday shoes you wear 80-90% of the time, we aim to make the orthotic fit. We’ll advise you if a footwear change would make a meaningful difference.

Typically 3-5 years if nothing changes with your condition, alignment, or body weight. The top cover may need replacing sooner (every 1-2 years), but the shell itself is built to last. If you have surgery or a significant change in your condition, the orthotic may need to be updated.

Yes, it’s always worth getting checked. Growing pains are real and common in active children, but they’re also a sign that bones are growing faster than muscles can keep up. An early assessment lets us establish a baseline, provide guidance on activity levels, and catch any issues before they progress.

It can be uncomfortable. It’s a strong acoustic wave directed at the injured tissue, and it needs a certain intensity to be effective. Most patients describe it as manageable. A typical course is around 5 sessions, spaced 1-2 weeks apart.

This depends on your surgeon’s protocol. We start rehabilitation once your surgeon gives the all-clear, which varies depending on the procedure. If you’ve been referred to us for post-op care, we’ll coordinate with your surgeon on timing.

Kenny enjoys all aspects of podiatry but has a special interest in sports and biomechanics. Kenny has been working at The Walking Clinic since 2021 and his passion for podiatry and rehab slowly grew into starting Canberra Biomechanics & Sports Rehab clinic. Kenny’s current skills and experience includes strength and conditioning, exercise rehabilitation, optimising lower limb biomechanics and gait mechanics through customised orthotics and other modalities such as dry needling and joint mobilisations.

Kenny is passionate about helping his patients return to their sport through proper load and pain management and has proven experience with lower limb strength and conditioning. Kenny has previously worked with athletes in ACT Tennis, Volleyball Australia and ACT Touch Football and continues to work privately with individual athletes from the average weekend warrior to the elite athlete. Kenny’s goal is to help his patients get back to their activity without pain restricting them. Kenny also believes in a multi-disciplinary approach and works closely with Sports Doctors, Exercise Physiologists and Physiotherapists to ensure high quality and holistic care to all his patients.

Kenny is dedicated to providing patient-centred care and regularly attends courses, seminars, and workshops to ensure he is up to date with the best evidence-based treatments. Outside of work, Kenny enjoys playing touch football, OzTag and skiing, and enjoys spending his spare time outdoors, with his family (including his dog), going to the gym, trying new restaurants, and watching sport.
