Plantar Fasciitis – Often referred to as a “heel” spur.  This condition presents as pain in the heel and arch of your foot.  Most people feel this pain during their first few steps in the morning or after sustained standing.  This condition requires adequate stretching of the calf and plantar fascia as well as deep tissue massage, ultrasound and electrical stimulation.  In addition to providing you with physical therapy, we work closely with podiatrists who can provide you with custom orthotics, medications and proper footwear.

Þ Achilles Tendinitis – Inflammation of the large tendon in the back of the ankle.  It is an overuse injury that can lead to pain and swelling.  Running or walking up or down hills can aggravate this condition.  Ignoring this condition can lead to constant pain with weight-bearing activities and or rupturing the tendon.
