President Australasian Academy of Podiatric Sports MedicineIn 2012, we continue our proud association with Podiatry New ZealandASICS New Zealand's shoe development story is one of extraordinary partnerships with New Zealand's elite athletes; leading sports physiotherapists, podiatrists, scientists and various New Zealand Universities. Our partnership with Podiatry New Zealand is an assertion of ASICS' pursuit of excellence and commitment to developing the best and safest sport specific athletic footwear for everyone who participates in sport and healthy physical activities.AAPSM (Australasian Academy of Podiatric Sports Medicine) provides a common organisation representing Sports Podiatrists in Australia and New Zealand. Prescribing and examining qualifications of members who apply for Fellowship of the Australasian Academy of Podiatric Sports Medicine Inc. They encourage research in the area of musculoskeletal pathomechanics, biomechanical analysis and orthotic control as applied to the athletic community and also the accumulation of statistics in the area of sports medicine in order to develop sound methods of prevention and treatment of sports injuries. They also have a major participation in the annual Conference of Science and Medicine in Sport to disseminate current knowledge to the profession, allied professions, and those engaged in treatment of amateur, professional, or individual athletics.Every Sports Podiatrist has a reliance on shoes as an integral part of therapy and with it the need for information, product knowledge and regular updates from technical footwear advisors is vital for our ongoing broad knowledge base, as a group we understand the Importance of the Inclusion of a review of each patient's footwear and prescribing of correct design features for specific sports application shoes in any effective treatment plan.ASICS and AAPSM, the "shoe people" and the "foot people" seems a natural fit and we are very happy to be associated with long term supporters of sports medicine research and Sports Podiatry knowing these people have direct input into design and Australian specific input into the world design only enhances our want to be involved with this shoe company. Most major brands have tech reps which pass through our practices on a regular basis updating us on model changes and new features, they sponsor major sporting teams throughout the country, but one brand does something different and that is support research into not just lower limb sports medicine but cutting edge research into areas not traditionally associated with a sports shoe company and in general terms this makes ASICS philosophy of "A Sound Mind in a Sound Body" a truth that no amount of TV adverting time or big name sponsorship can bring as credibility to sports medicine professionals . The support ASICS gives AAPSM' is for continued education in sports science and medicine, building better Sports Podiatrists.Shoes featuring this symbol are recommended by Podiatry New Zealand for their technical performance, fit and comfort.
