Ankle & Foot Pain

Ankle and Foot Pain

Many of us suffer from ankle and foot pain. This can be due to a twisted ankle, common problems such as plantar fasciitis, or the pain of wearing high heels. The feet take a great deal of strain every day and throughout our lives. Pain in this area can be debilitating and greatly affect our ability to live a normal life. Foot and ankle pain can also affect other areas of the body because our “gait” changes(we limp) to help us reduce pain. although the foot and ankle are very complex correct alignment and foot mechanics are essential for pain-free movement. Once the local problem is fixed, we then look at rehabilitation locally and then up to the hips, pelvis, and lower back. You may not feel problems in these areas but they should always be checked as a matter of good practice.
