ABOUT
BELIEF #1
Human anatomy and biomechanics should be fundamental to the treatment of podiatric injury.
BELIEF #2
If you are not fixing your patients, it’s because you have not involved them in their treatment plan.
I'M EMMA
My name is Emma O Callaghan. I graduated from NUI Galway in 2017 as a Podiatrist.
I started working with Achilles Foot Clinic in Cork in 2017 where I started specialising in biomechanics and podiatric injury management. I am now the clinical lead and practice manager in the clinic and have trained and mentored over 16 podiatrists in house.
I started lecturing with the Irish College of Osteopathic Medicine as well as being a guest lecturer for the Society of Chiropodists and Podiatrists (now known as Podiatry Ireland).
I am a current lecturer in Podiatric Medicine with the University of Galway on the west coast of Ireland.
I founded Elite Biomechanics Academy in 2022 where my mission is to train more podiatrists to become the best they can be for their patients by becoming experts in anatomy and biomechanics of the lower limb.
Elite Biomechanics Academy
Elite Biomechanics Academy is a mentorship platform with live online lectures each week as well as a forum for continued support throughout the week for podiatrists who feel they need some mentorship to grow in confidence in their clinic.
Albert Einstein once said “If you can’t explain it to a 6 year old, then you don’t understand it yourself”. This is the foundation that I have endeavored to build Elite Biomechanics Academy. Podiatry, and all medical professions, are taught at university level in an academic way. I don’t think this is incorrect, as you need to know and be able to speak about medicine and anatomy with medical jargon, but what good is that to your patients?
My mission, at Elite Biomechanics Academy, is to rid the world of podiatric clinicians who don’t know their plantar fascia from their flexor digitorum brevis as well as those who don’t put the patient at the centre of their own care plan by empowering them with the knowledge and capability to become an active member in the solution to their complaint.
I want podiatrists to become the best they can be for their patients by becoming jargon free experts in anatomy and biomechanics of the lower limb.
