Struggling with Foot or Ankle Pain? Let’s Fix It.
Are you dealing with ankle or foot pain that’s limiting your training or daily life?

Injuries We Treat Most: Ankle & Foot Pain
From acute sprains to chronic pain, we treat a wide range of conditions affecting your foundation.
Ankle Sprain (Lateral / Medial)
Ligament injuries from twisting or rolling the ankle. Often leads to instability and is a major risk factor for future re-injury without proper rehab.
Chronic Ankle Instability
Repeated sprains or poor recovery can weaken support structures, leading to “giving way” sensations and trouble with balance or jumping.
Plantar Fasciitis
Inflammation of the thick tissue under the foot causing sharp heel pain—especially with the first steps in the morning or after long periods of standing.
Achilles Tendinopathy
Pain or stiffness in the back of the ankle, often from overuse or poor load management in running or jumping activities.
Posterior Tibialis Tendinopathy
Inner ankle and arch pain caused by overuse or poor foot mechanics—often leads to flat feet or instability during walking.
Peroneal Tendinopathy
Outer ankle pain or tightness, particularly after running or in individuals with high arches.
Stress Fractures (Metatarsals / Tibia)
Microfractures in the bones of the foot or lower leg from repetitive impact, often linked to training errors or poor footwear.
Midfoot or Forefoot Pain (Metatarsalgia, Neuroma)
Pain in the ball of the foot, often worsened by tight shoes, impact activities, or long-distance running.
Post-Surgical or Post-Immobilization Stiffness
Loss of range or muscle control after a fracture, surgery, or casting—benefits from manual therapy and neuromuscular retraining.
