Can Physiotherapy Help with Foot Pain?
Foot pain is a very common injury that we treat at MOMENTUM Physical Therapy. At this time of year we see a lot of dancers who are experiencing foot and ankle pain as a result of competition season. Likewise, we also see a lot of people who develop foot pain as they transition from wearing boots to running shoes and flip flops.
Foot pain can be caused by many different things. This can include overuse of the tendons in the lower leg, irritation to the plantar fascia, sprained ligaments, or pulled muscles. Most foot pain is the result of overuse and requires some specific treatment to help the injured tissues heal.
Fortunately, physiotherapy is an effective tool to help manage and resolve your foot pain. At MOMENTUM Physical Therapy, we will assess your feet to determine what is giving you grief, deliver hands on treatment, and provide you with exercises to maximize your recovery.
If you are dealing with any foot pain, call MOMENTUM Physical Therapy in Okotoks to find out how we can put the spring back into your step. 403-982-5600
