Foot & Ankle Injuries

Physical therapy for foot and ankle injuries.

Our physical therapists are highly trained in the evaluation, treatment, and rehabilitation of orthopedic and sports-related injuries.

Running injuries are often related to repetitive stress and changes in training load rather than one specific traumatic event. Repeated loading can place stress on muscles, tendons, joints, and other tissues over time.

Treatment is individualized based on your symptoms, physical examination, activity level, and goals.
