Foot & Ankle Pain
Is Foot or Ankle Pain Making It Difficult to Walk, Run, Jump, Descend Stairs, or Perform Your Normal Workouts?
- Your running goals are hindered by persistent foot or ankle pain.
- You have to cut it short or skip your runs due to nagging discomfort in your feet or ankles.
- You’re frustrated with pain that lingers, despite rest and various self-treatments, and hampers your running routine.
- Your fear of worsening your foot or ankle pain overshadows your enthusiasm for hitting the road or trail.
- You went to a doctor, who gave you an injection or advised you to take some medications and rest, but the relief was short-lived.
We Are Here to Help You Find Long-Term Solutions!
We Treat the Following Common Ankle/Foot Conditions:
- Plantar fasciitis
- Shin splints
- Ankle sprains
- Achilles tendonitis/tendinopathy
- Posterior tibialis tendonitis/tendinopathy
- Calf strains
The Most Common Causes
- Impaired Biomechanics: joint stiffness, decreased muscular flexibility and strength, abnormal foot/ankle pronation and gait imbalances lead to excessive stress on the feet and ankles
- Injury can be caused by repeated impact or load on the tissue before those tissues are ready to handle that load.
- Chronic compensations: previous injury or fear of future harm may have changed muscle activity causing some muscle groups to be overused while others are less active.
Treatments for Feet and Ankle Issues
- Restore full range of motion and improve joint mobility
- Stretching, instrument-assisted mobilization, dry needling, and massage can all help to increase tissue mobility
- Improve core, hip, and knee strength and control to reduce irregular ankle force
- Strengthen the calf and intrinsic foot muscles
- Improve your balance and single-leg control.
- Plyometric and functional activities (jumping, sprinting, cutting, squatting, climbing)
- Video running gait analysis
- Modify your aerobic/endurance conditioning as needed to allow for full healing
- Discuss appropriate footwear suggestions
