Find your balance with Grace

Balanced Sports Podiatry

Balanced Sports Podiatry is a boutique podiatry business that operates out of Karunamaya Medicine in Jan Juc and Myotherapy and Allied Health in Geelong.

Grace Byrnes, the founder of Balanced Sports Podiatry, has a holistic approach to help keep people active, and is about to celebrate two years in business.

“I really get the biggest thrill when I can help someone who is injured get back into activity and reach whatever goals they have.”

After gaining private practice experience in Melbourne, Grace felt the pull of the beach calling her back to her hometown.

She has now been practising for seven years and still well remembers her first experience with a podiatrist when she was just 17. At the time Grace was an elite athlete training with the VIS when stress fractures caused her to sit on the sidelines for three months.

It was a podiatrist who diagnosed her issue and got her back into the sport which she loved.

Grace has completed extra courses in foot mobilisation and manipulation, dry needling and run technique training.

She loves being a hands-on podiatrist and finds her passion for continued learning enables her to offer more solutions to help her clients stay active and injury free.

Having a holistic approach means that Grace surrounds herself with other likeminded and skilled practitioners.

She has developed strong working relationships with not only the team at Karuna-maya Medicine, but also the wider Surf Coast community.
