By integrating our proven methods, we’ll help you to conquer your foot and ankle pain and rediscover the joy of daily activities. You’ll no longer need to avoid walking or exercising due to pain. You can regain the freedom to live your life to the fullest.
Physiotherapy has proven to be a powerful and effective solution for foot pain. Our expert physiotherapists conduct a comprehensive assessment to understand the root cause of your discomfort.
The evaluation begins by gathering your medical history and performing a hands-on assessment to identify any structural or functional issues. Our therapists then conduct a range of motion tests, strength tests, proprioception assessments, and balance and coordination exercises. Additionally, movement screens and gait analysis help identify any abnormalities or compensations in your walking or running patterns.
With this information, our physiotherapists develop a targeted treatment plan using evidence-based interventions. Our primary goal is to reduce your pain, improve tissue and joint mobility, enhance strength, and restore overall function.
Your treatment plan will typically include a combination of specialized hands-on manual therapy techniques, gait retraining, balance and proprioception exercises, strengthening exercises and stretching, in order to restore joint mobility, improve balance, and strengthen the foot and ankle muscles.

Ankle pain can significantly hinder daily life. Understanding the common causes is essential for finding relief.
One of the most prevalent causes of ankle pain is a sprain, which occurs when the ligaments that support and help to stabilize the ankle are stretched or torn. This injury often results from a sudden twist or impact and can cause swelling, bruising, limited mobility, and difficulty walking.
Another frequent source of ankle pain is Achilles tendinitis, the inflammation of the Achilles tendon at the back of the ankle. This condition is typically brought on by overuse or repetitive stress, leading to pain, stiffness, and reduced flexibility.
Fractures and stress fractures can also cause ankle pain due to direct trauma or repetitive impact on the joint. These injuries can create significant discomfort, swelling, and difficulty bearing weight on the affected ankle.
Different types of arthritis, including osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and gout, can also contribute to ankle pain. These conditions lead to the degeneration of joint cartilage, resulting in inflammation, stiffness, and discomfort during movement.
This condition is another common cause of ankle pain that involves damage to the tendon that supports the foot’s arch. This condition can lead to pain, swelling, and a flattening of the foot arch, affecting your gait and overall stability.
Physiotherapists commonly treat a variety of foot conditions to help patients alleviate pain and regain mobility. The most common foot conditions treated at our Physiotherapy Clinic are:
Inflammation of the plantar fascia, a thick band of tissue connecting the heel to the toes, causing sharp heel pain.
Inflammation of the Achilles tendon, which connects the calf muscles to the heel bone, resulting in pain and stiffness at the back of the ankle.
A bony protrusion that forms at the base of the big toe joint, causing the big toe to angle inward, leading to pain, swelling, and discomfort.
Pain and inflammation in the ball of the foot, often caused by overuse, improper footwear, or high-impact activities.
Tiny cracks in the bones of the foot, stress fractures can develop from the repetitive impact of running.
A condition where the arch of the foot collapses or is underdeveloped, potentially leading to pain and discomfort in the feet, ankles, or lower leg.
An excessively high arch of the foot can cause pain, instability, and increased pressure on the ball and heel of the foot.
The tarsal tunnel is the groove where the nerve that runs from the lower leg through the ankle to the foot travels.
An abnormal bending of one or more toe joints, creating an unusual appearance and painful pressure points.
A thickening of the tissue around a nerve leads to the toes, causing sharp pain, numbness, or tingling in the ball of the foot.
