At Health Systems Go we hold a strong core belief that many issues within the body are compensation injuries which have originated elsewhere in our musculoskeletal chain. Creating weakness and overload at the site of your complaint. Kirstin first entered the health industry as a Myotherapist in 2012.
Wanting to learn more about the impact foot function had on the rest of the body, she went on to study Podiatry at LTU and GCU. During her career, Kirstin has worked at the World Cycling Championships, Australian Institute of Sport and AFL Draft Combine. Outside of Podiatry and Myotherapy, Kirstin is trained in Prolotherapy, Perineural Injection Therapy, Dry Needling, GRIP Approach and Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilisation*.

Orthoses (aka orthotics) are one of our Podiatrists last lines of treatment. Instead, we look at the missing links between your pelvic (in) stability, intra abdominal pressure - versus - peak loads at the foot, ankle and knee.
We begin with a thorough analysis of your neurological and motor patterns, muscle timing during your gait cycle, limb length discrepancies (LLD), lumbo pelvic stability, compensatory patterns & location of high peak force within your feet whilst weight bearing.If you have a condition or concern not listed, please contact us on (03) 9084 7455 to see if we can help.

Thorough indoor and outdoor walking, running and sprinting (if applicable) gait analysis with Kirstin, our running Podiatrist. Recorded video footage of your running technique to highlight why your injury, pain or hot spot(s) continue to hinder your movement and endurance skills. Wear comfortable running gear that can be dressed up or down depending on the days weather.
Developing a strong and functional foot from a young age is extremely beneficial to your childs long term biomechanics. It sets them up for increased strength and injury prevention in not only the foot, but throughout all joints leading into the back. We recommend Podiatric advice if your child is complaining of ongoing pain and discomfort, or if you have concerns of development issues in these regions.
First developed in 1939 by George S. Hackett (Trauma Surgeon) for lower back pain. Prolotherapy assists with the shortening and strengthening of previously damaged ligaments. Paradigm shift; in chronic pain, ligaments are thought to be of a higher importance to bones and discs. The injection consists of a glucose and local anaesthetic solution (varying from 5 to 25% concentrate).

Kirstin has quite literally got me back on my feet and pain-free after a five-year on and off battle with plantar fasciitis. She takes a very wholistic approach to healing and helped me understand what I was experiencing and why I had this recurring issue. Kirstin is incredibly knowledgeable, sympathetic and she genuinely cares. She's now supporting my son and many of my friends. I would highly recommend Kirstin to anyone who is looking for a gun of a podiatrist.

As someone who just started long-distance running and getting lots of injuries, meeting Kirstin was godsend: She listened carefully to my rambling complaints and patiently provided relevant and scientific explanations in response, and correctly identified the musculoskeletal issues I have (which I never knew I had!) and provided immediate treatments and, along with other invaluable advice on shoe and nutrition, taught exercises for me to do at home. I diligently performed the exercises she prescribed daily and after 2 weeks, I am able to run 14k without injuring myself anymore. Will keep coming

I'm a Scottish patient of 'Health Systems Go' and have been working with Kirsten for several months through her Telehealth service. My body strength, awareness and posture has improved tenfold since we started our online sessions. Throughout my life, I have spent thousands of pounds on short-term pain relief. Kirsten is the first practitioner I have met who has helped me to strengthen my body in such a way that I no longer have back pain or require continual expensive massage treatments. In addition to being extremely professional with excellent remote working systems, Kirsten is a great person

After seeing many practitioners for my Plantar fasciitis without success, I was referred to Kirstin Simpson and saw vast improvements with her approach and knowledge to the injury and can now walk freely again! her follow up care is also refreshing for this industry.
Thanks Kirstin for getting me back on my feet and look forward to continue working with you.

It has been a great pleasure having such a high standard professional treating me for the past few years. Kirstin is astute, knowledgeable and very thorough with her gentle approach. Her ability to collaborate with other allied health professionals in my treatment plan is what makes her unique. I am lucky to have found an excellent practitioner and I highly recommend her.

I am very happy to be treated by Kirstin. She is the ultimate caring professional, taking the trouble to learn about me and understand my ailments, before treating them. She clearly has the knowledge and her advice regards appropriate footwear, correcting my gait and strengthening exercises makes my body feel a lot better than it was a year ago.

I started seeing Kirstin for myotherapy treatments in 2015.
I have seen many other therapists over a twenty five year period, including chiropractors, osteopaths and other myotherapists.
Kirstin is unique in her ability to identify the areas of muscle tension and then treat them effectively. Whether it is due to her advanced up to date knowledge, or her natural ability,
her treatments produce long lasting improvement.
