Rediscovering Natural Foot Function: A Podiatrist’s Journey from Conventional Care to Barefoot Biomechanics
Join us for a wisdom session with Elise Adams, founder of Sole Pod a holistic podiatrist who discovered that true healing starts from the ground up. Growing up surrounded by healers and as a competitive athlete and later in life - a recreational surfer, Elise questioned why conventional podiatry relied heavily on orthotics and supports as long-term solutions rather than addressing root causes.
After purchasing her own practice in Narellan, she was free to explore a different path—one that honours the foot’s natural design and the body’s innate ability to heal and adapt. Through years of integrating manual therapies like foot mobilisation technique, dry needling, and active release with targeted exercise prescription and minimalist footwear principles, she’s witnessed profound transformations in her patients’ movement patterns and overall wellbeing.
This isn’t about any single solution being the answer—it’s about understanding the intricate biomechanical connections that run from your toes to your core. Discover how working with natural foot mechanics can unlock efficient movement patterns throughout your entire kinetic chain, and why addressing these foundational patterns can eliminate the cycle of recurring issues.
Whether you’re dealing with persistent foot pain, seeking to optimise athletic performance, or simply want to build stronger movement foundations before compensations develop, this talk will shift your perspective on what true healing looks like. Walk away with practical insights into how your feet communicate with your entire body and why working with—rather than against—natural biomechanics creates lasting change.
For those ready to move beyond band-aid solutions towards genuine, lifelong transformation.
There will be time for Q&A at the end.
