Ashley Mahoney graduated with distinction in Podiatry from the Queensland University of Technology in 1998.

Ashley is the director of the Foot Analysis Centre, a group of Sports Podiatry clinics in Australia dedicated to treating and rehabilitating injuries of the foot and lower limb. He is consultant to many high profile athletes and teams.

Ashley’s interests in foot and leg injury treatment stemmed from his national and international sporting endeavours in Track and Field and Surf Life Saving. Also a nationally accredited sprints and hurdles coach with the Australian Track and Field Coaches Association he is highly qualified to assess the biomechanics of walking and running for all ages and levels.

Ashley wrote the following foot strengthening guides between 1998/9:

• Building Strong Foundations – Foot Strengthening Exercises
• Enhancing Strong Foundations - Advanced Foot Strengthening Exercises
• Foot Strengthening Exercise Games for Children
  

Due to a lack of published dynamic foot strengthening exercises and no existing text for foot strengthening, Ashley decided to publish the books in 2003.

Ashley is a regular lecturer in foot strength exercise prescription and foot injury rehabilitation at Queensland University of Technology (QUT) Podiatry School.

He also runs the only 2 day intensive foot strengthening seminars for lower limb therapists around the world.

In 2005 Ashley invented the archCOACH™. The archCOACH™ is a simple, cost effective treatment option for foot and ankle strengthening and rehabilitation.

The archCOACH™ patented design technology enables users to strengthen the muscles of the foot and ankle that maintain the arch integrity.

Many elite athletes and dancers credit Ashley and his archCOACH™ for their rehabilitation from chronic injury.

The archCOACH™ is now used in hundreds of Sports Medicine Centres for foot and ankle strengthening to prevent injury and also to prevent and rehabilitate foot and ankle injury.

Due to overwhelming demand Ashley finally produced the first specialised foot and ankle exercise and rehabilitation software (FASES). This software will be introduced during 2007 and is only available from www.footstrength.com

FASES contains;

• Over 400 Injury / Operative rehabilitation guides for everything from ankle sprains and Tibialis Posterior Dysfunction to Pre and Postoperative exercises for Bunion or Achilles Tendon Surgery.
• Over 200 prevention guidelines for foot and ankle injuries and commonly encountered problems.
• Over 130 prescription foot and ankle strengthening exercises.
• 10 levels of progressively structured foot and ankle exercises that can be adapted to every foot and ankle injury.
