Martin McCafferty

MSK Podiatrist

I am a podiatrist with over 10 years’ experience working in a leading private practice, managing a high-volume musculoskeletal (MSK) caseload. Prior to qualifying in podiatry, I trained and worked as a Sports Therapist, gaining extensive experience in both short- and long-term injury rehabilitation.

I have a strong clinical interest in all aspects of musculoskeletal care and have used sports and kinesiology taping routinely in my clinical practice since graduating as a Sports Therapist. I consider taping to be a valuable short-term intervention for MSK conditions, offering an opportunity for early symptom improvement while longer-term management strategies are developed.

I have presented on two occasions at the Foot Medic Conference, delivering sessions on functional anatomy and MSK taping techniques. I have also hosted a weekly MSK Condition Review Seminar for clinicians across the Foot Medic Group, supporting ongoing clinical discussion and professional development.

More recently, I have begun delivering MSK taping technique courses, focused on practical, evidence-informed approaches that clinicians can apply immediately in practice.

One of the most rewarding experiences of my professional career was volunteering at the Special Olympics in Los Angeles in 2015, as well as at subsequent local events. This provided invaluable experience working alongside podiatrists from around the world, screening and treating athletes of all ages with intellectual disabilities.
