Ankle / Foot Pain
What is Ankle or Foot Pain?
Ankle and foot pain can stem from joint restrictions, muscle imbalances, ligament injuries, poor biomechanics, or overuse. It often affects how you stand, walk, and move — impacting your overall posture and mobility.
Symptoms of Shoulder Pain
- Sharp or aching pain in the heel, arch, ankle, or toes
- Swelling or stiffness around the ankle or foot
- Weakness or instability when walking or standing
- Numbness, tingling, or burning sensations
- Pain that worsens with weight-bearing or activity
- Reduced range of motion in the foot or ankle
How Osteopathy Can Help
At Forme, we assess your entire lower limb, gait, and posture to find the root cause of your foot or ankle pain — then treat it using gentle, hands-on techniques to restore function and reduce discomfort.
Using gentle hands-on techniques such as:
- Improving joint mobility in the ankle, foot, and toes to reduce stiffness
- Releasing tight muscles in the calf, foot, and lower leg that alter movement
- Addressing imbalances or restrictions in the knee, hip, and pelvis that affect ankle function
- Enhancing foot biomechanics to support healthy walking and standing patterns
- Reducing inflammation and swelling by improving circulation and lymphatic flow
- Supporting recovery from injuries such as sprains, tendinitis, or plantar fasciitis
- Alleviating nerve tension from the lower back that may refer to the foot or ankle
- Correcting compensatory patterns that lead to long-term foot and ankle pain
Osteopathy treats foot and ankle pain by improving alignment, reducing tension, and restoring smooth movement through the entire lower limb.
