Behind active in public health, elite sports medicine centers private practices for the beginning 10 years of their careers both John Claude successfully treated foot pain with orthotics, but were met with the frustration of seeing clients battle with them. Clients would come from other practitioners who had given them orthotics and for a variety of reasons chose not to wear them. These included shoe fitting issues, development of fresh symptoms with the orthotics and a weakened foot structure leading to options like invasive surgery medication. Therefore In 2003 John and Claude decided to set up two highly specialized foot clinic centers in Melbourne with the aim to educate, check and help clients towards optimal foot and leg posture, resolving symptoms and maximizing their mobility without orthotics using their All Automatic System. It was something that had intrigued his colleague and fellow podiatrist, John Sfinas, for many years in his practice, as well. Together, through their joint research, they discovered foot mobilization. What astounded Claude and John was how such spontaneous techniques had reach to be replaced by man-made solutions in our modern way of life. At first, the pair experimented with the technique to treat each other’s feet and below limbs. They also added corrective exercises and gait posture retraining. Over a period of six to twelve months, Claude found that the pain in his feet and below limbs had reduced to the point where he did not need his orthotics any more. Not only were these the beginning of their kind in Victoria over a decade later, they tranquil continue the only two centers specializing in foot mobilization and corrective postural exercises in this state. Here, patients can be checked and assessed to see if their foot and leg posture and associated pain can be corrected naturally without surgery, drugs or orthotics. John and Claude have been using these techniques longer than any other podiatrists in Victoria. Excited by their findings, John and Claude introduced these techniques into their clinics in 199. Very quickly, word spread and patients sought them out to get their feet corrected naturally and rid themselves of their orthotics. As a result, the pair decided to create clinics dedicated to serving this need and Foot Posture centers opened in Forest Hill and Ivanhoe in 2003.
