Foot & Heel Pain Treatment | Glen Iris & Malvern
Foot and heel pain might seem straightforward but it's often more nuanced than it appears. The foot is the foundation of everything above it and how it moves and loads affects the ankle, knee, hip, and lower back in ways that aren't always obvious until you look at the full picture.
At Movement Osteopathy, foot and heel pain is assessed in the context of how you move overall. How your ankle dorsiflexes, how your arch loads and distributes force, and how your footwear and daily activities are contributing to the problem all inform how we approach treatment.
Hands-on treatment to improve mobility and reduce pain is combined with specific rehabilitation exercises and practical advice about load management, because most foot conditions respond well to the right combination of both.
Common conditions we treat include:
-
Plantar fasciitis and heel pain
-
Achilles tendinopathy
-
Ankle sprains and instability
-
Tibialis posterior tendinopathy
-
Peroneal tendinopathy
-
Morton's neuroma
-
Flat feet and overpronation related pain
