How Chiropractic Care can help
Foot and/or heel pain may be caused by a large number of different injuries or conditions. Repetitive strain injury, acute trauma or disease are the most common causes.
When you are running or wearing high heeled shoes for example the pressure on your feet can be several times your body weight.
In some cases foot conditions such as plantar fasciitis or ankle sprains can be easily treated in the clinic, other times foot pain can be an early sign of more serious medical problems like arthritis or diabetes.
How can chiropractic help to relieve foot and heel pain?
Chiropractic treatment for foot/heel pain can involve correction of poor joint function in the foot or arches via chiropractic manipulation and mobilization, therapeutic modalities (such as laser and ultrasound), home-based exercise, proper shoe selection and over-the-counter and/or custom orthotics. If your foot condition is severe Your Pickering Chiropractors will co-manage your case with a chiropodist (foot specialist), family doctor or orthopedic surgeon when needed.
