William Joyce
William Joyce is a New Zealand-qualified podiatrist with a postgraduate qualification in Podiatric Medicine and extensive experience in walking, running and movement mechanics, Podopaediatrics (children's podiatry), nail surgery, specialist verruca treatment, injection therapies, Strength and Conditioning programming, and many other areas of Podiatry. Since graduating from the Auckland University of Technology, William has worked in private multi-disciplinary health clinics treating professional footballers from Manchester United and Manchester City as well as elite Rugby players, International track and field athletes, and Red Bull athletes.
William is a firm believer in a holistic approach to the management of lower limb-related injury/pathology and understands the importance of addressing the factors that lead to the development of the injury. In order to prevent its recurrence he incorporates bespoke strength and conditioning with movement pattern retraining to bring a comprehensive approach to his screening and treatment. He produces the quality orthotics and shoe supports whilst striving to improve foot and leg mechanics and has a specialist interest in running and sport-related biomechanics.
He previously rowed competitively at an elite level, representing New Zealand at the World Championships and in his time off now enjoys competing in triathlons (up to Iron Man distance), yoga, climbing, and surfing.
Keeping up with the latest technologies, developments and treatment protocols in the podiatry and medical field is a prime focus. Willam has completed post-graduate research with it being published in the Journal of Foot and Ankle Research.
