Foot Pain

Foot pain physiotherapy focuses on pain relief, improving mobility, and strengthening foot muscles to restore function and prevent future injuries. It is essential for managing conditions like plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendinitis, arthritis, and post-surgical recovery.

Key Aspects of Foot Pain Physiotherapy

• Comprehensive Assessment: Identifies the cause through gait analysis, posture evaluation, and movement testing. Examines foot arch, muscle strength, and joint mobility.
• Pain Relief Techniques:
  Electrotherapy (TENS, IFT, Ultrasound) to reduce pain and inflammation.
  Heat & Cold Therapy for muscle relaxation and swelling control.
• Manual Therapy & Joint Mobilization: Improves foot flexibility and reduces stiffness. Includes soft tissue release & myofascial therapy to relieve tension.
• Strengthening & Stretching Exercises:
  Arch Strengthening: Supports flat feet and prevents overuse injuries.
  Toe & Ankle Exercises: Improves balance and mobility.
• Gait & Balance Training: Corrects walking posture to reduce foot strain. Prevents falls and improves stability.
• Orthotics & Footwear Advice: Recommends proper shoes and insoles for support. Helps reduce pressure on painful areas.
• Post-Surgical Rehabilitation: Gradual strengthening and mobility exercises after surgery (e.g., fracture, tendon repair).
• Home Exercise Program: Personalized routines for maintaining foot health and preventing recurrence.

Foot pain physiotherapy ensures long-term relief by addressing the root cause, enhancing mobility, and preventing future discomfort.
