Foot Injury

Foot injuries are common among athletes and individuals in occupations that require standing for long durations throughout the day. The human foot is a very complex structure composed of 26 bones, 33 joints, and more than a hundred muscles, tendons, and ligaments. The most commonly injured joints of the foot are the subtler joint, talonavicular joint, calcaneocuboid joint, and the interphalangeal articulations of the foot. Our practitioners will perform various tests to help isolate problem areas before generating a plan of care.

Treatment

Individualized treatment plans will be generated upon an evaluation from one of our experienced clinicians. The evaluation, will take into account your symptoms, X-Ray/MRI results, special tests, and your personal goals.

If you do not have a prescription from your physician for physical therapy, you may still be able to be treated at Lighthouse.
