Foot/Ankle Pain
Eliminate Chronic Foot/Ankle Pain Without Injections, Without Painkillers or Worse, SURGERY!
If you have been told you have “bad feet” or collapsed arches that are constantly achy or ankles that are chronically sore and you are living in constant pain - don’t settle for the common thought that “this is just something that comes with age”. Thinking that this is just natural “wear and tear” or it will go away on its own will only lead to more pain and more of the same injections, medications and threats of surgery. Our feet are OUR FOUNDATION and a key link to the chain that makes up our lower half.
In many instances you may think to yourself - “I can’t quite put my finger on how or when my foot or ankle pain began” or WORSE you just accept it and alter your daily activities because of it - Still, It Doesn’t Get Any Better.
If you dread the first few steps out of bed each morning and start your day with pain, KNOW THIS - you are not alone. We hear these reports far too often, in fact, foot and ankle pain is one of the most common conditions we treat at Universus Physical Therapy.
Living with chronic foot pain and/or nagging ankle pain could affect every aspect of your day - from the minute you wake up, while completing daily errands, and especially at the conclusion of a long day. It is not uncommon to be left wondering the answers to these simple questions:
“Why is This Happening to Me?”...
or
“Why am I still suffering from my foot/ankle pain for the last 6 months that keeps getting worse despite pain medications and injections.”
Most of our patient's stories began with the belief that their minor foot discomfort that seemed to just be the sum of a long day and would “get better on its own” and go away by morning. STILL, months later they find their pain is worse and it is even affecting other parts of their body - commonly their KNEE, HIP or LOWER BACK. The average American walks 5,000-7,000 steps per day - leading to more foot and ankle pain and a HIGHER RISK of injury to the knees, hips and low back.
Does This Sound Like You?
Another scenario we commonly discover at Universus PT is a patient who was referred to by their physician, and the well-meaning doctor recommends “rest” or to “try these painkillers” or “take these anti-inflammatory pills” or to just “come back in 6 weeks if it is not better”. After 4-6 weeks the patient returns, with INCREASED PAIN, and is offered the same interventions - except stronger medication, more X-rays and MRIs, or injections. WE CAN DO BETTER THAN THIS!
Has This Ever Happened To You?
You may find yourself confused by harsh medical terms, conflicting opinions and long lists of medications or varying interventions. Maybe you did take the advice to “rest” and you’ve now put the life you loved behind you - Only to find that resting, or more like doing nothing, only leads to worse foot or ankle pain mainly greater difficulty walking and using the stairs.
It can be very confusing and frustrating to know where to begin. Making the first move could be the hardest but luckily it does not have to be the only move you make. Being in fear of making the wrong decision twice often results in individuals becoming complacent with their initial decision to only rest without taking action. Just accepting this as your new life is UNACCEPTABLE and does not have to be the way.

Before we go on to show you how we can help, let us first make it abundantly clear we’re NOT like any of the other Physical Therapists out there and that includes the ones in the typical large corporate gyms or hospital settings. We’d like to distance ourselves from them immediately and you should know upfront, that our advice is NOTHING like the advice given out by them or any General Practitioner – quite simply because we’re Specialists in a Private Practice, a TOTALLY ONE-ON-ONE Physical Therapy Clinic and we’ve been working with and HELPING people recover from foot/ankle pain fast, on a DAILY basis, for more than 15 years.
Rest assured…Everything we do is PERSONALIZED, SPECIFIC and SPECIALIZED. That’s the kind of care that works BEST and what our patients longed for before they discovered Universus PT. If time is a concern for you, know that our ONE-ON-ONE setting offers PRIVATE 45-minute sessions with a Doctor of Physical Therapy.
Our goal is to help you recover from foot/ankle pain and get you active again, QUICKLY and HOLISTICALLY. That means any solution that we provide, will NOT include a prescription for harmful painkillers or medication that in the end, do more harm than good because they SIMPLY DO NOT TREAT THE ROOT CAUSE OF YOUR PAIN. Our exam covers the entire body, we do a very thorough movement, strength and flexibility analysis, we figure out where the weak links are and we design a program specifically for you to achieve your goals. A typical exam for the foot/ankle region will also include looking at the back, hips, and knees!
As you know, foot/ankle pain can be LIFE ALTERING, not to mention frustrating. The longer it is left untreated appropriately, the harder and more time it takes to resolve. And No!...It’s NOT your age and you DON’T just have to accept it.

Have you been told you have any of the following conditions?
Do NOT live victim to the diagnosis! You certainly may have one of these conditions, but it doesn't mean that it is the source of your pain (LINK TO IMAGING BLOG AJ WROTE). It also does not mean that you need expensive imaging to confirm this condition. In fact, more people have similar issues, but have little to no pain and function actively without limitations.
