(08) 6110 0570admin@pdchealthhub.com.auNumbness, tingling, burning or poor balance in your feet are worth taking seriously, especially if you live with diabetes.
Peripheral neuropathy is nerve damage that usually starts in the feet. It is one of the most common complications of diabetes, and it can reduce feeling, cause pain and affect balance.12
Damaged nerves usually cannot be repaired, but good glucose management can help slow the damage, and the right care protects your feet, improves balance and lowers the risk of falls and injury.3 Our podiatrists, physiotherapists, exercise physiologists and diabetes educators share one plan.

Symptoms are a guide, not a diagnosis. Your GP confirms the diagnosis; our team helps you manage it day to day.
The teams and services that most often support people with this condition. They work from one shared plan, and one GP referral reaches all of them.
Our neuropathy care follows the 2021 Australian evidence-based guidelines for diabetes-related foot disease and the RACGP and Diabetes Australia handbook Management of type 2 diabetes.
Established nerve damage generally cannot be reversed. Good glucose management can help slow it, and its consequences, such as wounds, falls and loss of fitness, are largely preventable with the right care.
Because neuropathy affects more than one thing: feeling (podiatry), balance and strength (physiotherapy and exercise physiology), and the underlying diabetes (diabetes education). At PDC these clinicians share one care plan, so you are not repeating your story.
Yes. Painful neuropathy has recognised medicine and non-medicine options. We work with your GP on the medical side and support the rest. Activity, sleep and pacing all influence nerve pain.
Not necessarily, but reduced feeling raises your risk, which is why regular foot checks and protective habits matter. Our assessment gives you a clear risk level and plan.
Yes, and it helps. Balance, strength and supervised exercise lower falls risk and support your overall health. Our exercise physiologists adapt programs to your feeling and balance, with foot protection built in.
Tell us what is going on and we will point you to the right discipline, or to more than one. Most people start with a single appointment and leave with a plan the rest of the team can see.
