Chiropractic Care for Ankle & Foot Pain Relief

Understanding the causes of Ankle & Foot Pain

Your ankles and feet are essential for mobility and balance, bearing the weight of your body and absorbing impact with every step. This complex network of bones, ligaments, tendons, and muscles can be vulnerable to a variety of conditions and injuries, such as:

• Sprains and Strains – Often caused by sudden twists or impacts, these soft tissue injuries can lead to pain, swelling, and reduced mobility.
• Plantar Fasciitis – Inflammation of the plantar fascia, a thick band of tissue connecting your heel to the front of your foot, often causing heel pain.
• Achilles Tendinitis – Overuse of the Achilles tendon, the largest tendon in your body, can lead to pain and stiffness, especially in the back of the heel.
• Arthritis – Osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis can affect joints in the foot and ankle, leading to chronic pain and reduced range of motion.
• Flat Feet or High Arches – Foot alignment issues can cause strain, leading to pain not only in the feet but also affecting knee, hip, and back alignment.
