Your feet and ankles are essential for daily movement, supporting your body’s weight and helping you stay active.

At [Your Clinic Name], we provide specialized physiotherapy treatments designed to address foot and ankle pain, helping you regain comfort and mobility.
Understanding Foot and Ankle Pain
Foot and ankle pain can arise from injuries, chronic conditions, or improper biomechanics. These structures are complex, involving numerous bones, joints, muscles, tendons, and ligaments that must work together for smooth movement. When any part of this system is affected, pain and dysfunction can occur.
Common Causes of Foot and Ankle Pain
Pain in the foot and ankle can stem from various conditions, including:
Sprains and Strains: Overstretching or tearing of ligaments, muscles, or tendons due to sudden movements or falls.
Plantar Fasciitis: Inflammation of the tissue along the bottom of the foot, causing heel pain and stiffness.
Arthritis: Osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis can lead to joint pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility.
Tendinitis: Overuse can inflame tendons, leading to persistent pain and discomfort.
Bursitis: Inflammation of fluid-filled sacs (bursae) that cushion joints, often due to repetitive motion.
Fractures: Broken bones in the foot or ankle require careful rehabilitation to restore strength and function.
Tarsal Tunnel Syndrome: Nerve compression in the ankle leading to pain, tingling, and numbness.
Flat Feet (Fallen Arches): Improper arch formation can lead to misalignment and discomfort.
