Mr Kite started practising Podiatric Medicine in 1987. His first private practice was based in Torquay, Devon and is the founder of The Stephen Kite Practice in Dorset, England.
He qualified in 1986 and has continued his professional development for over twenty-five years. He prescribes fully functional prescription orthotics that can help realign the body's natural gait and can often solve problems that can occur as a result of the altered walking cycle, thus helping to prevent foot, knee, hip and back problems. The word “Orthotic” comes from the Greek word meaning straight. Prescription Orthotics help to hold the foot in a more “neutral” position. Otherwise if the foot is misaligned, can lead to more wear and tear on our bodies.
Mr Kite has treated many from the world of show business & sports and he is an Expert Witness in Podiatric Medicine and and a contributor to National Press.
He has a Diploma in Podiatric Medicine, and a Bachelor of Science degree in Podiatric Medicine from New College (Durham), and The University of Sunderland, England.
