How Can Neuro Therapy Help With Foot and Ankle Pain?
|
If you’re on this page, I don’t have to tell you that foot and ankle can be frustrating.
Foot and ankle pain affects our ability to workout, sleep, compete, and sometimes take the first few steps out of bed in the morning. It’s amazing what simple tasks can be affected when our ability to push off the foot is limited. It’s even more frustrating when it feels like nothing (rest, ice, heat, massage and even in-home exercises) is helping the foot pain or ankle pain start to feel better. |

In most cases, the people who are visiting this page fall into 1 of 3 categories:
You take pride in maintaining an active lifestyle (or used to), but a recent foot/ankle injury or foot/ankle surgery is causing you to take a break. A friend, family member (or maybe even something on social media) told you Neuro Therapy is a faster way to get better and back to performing at a high level.
You’ve had foot pain, ankle pain, or limited range of motion for months (or even years) and are starting to wonder why it’s not getting better. You’ve tried everything that doctors recommended to make it go away, with little success. At this point, they may have even told you that you’ll just have to live with it. But if there’s something out there that can help you solve the problem, you'd like to learn about it.
You’ve been told by a doctor that surgery will be required to fix the foot pain or ankle pain, and going under the knife is the last thing you want to do. You're worried it might not work or the recovery process will be longer than expected, and you're exploring alternatives to see if there’s a way to avoid surgery all together.
If any of these are you, it’s likely that you’ve started to put a few pieces together.
Maybe you’ve started to feel a little tight in some areas around the foot, and even the muscles in the lower leg.
Or feel yourself compensating or moving differently (ever feel yourself not quite pushing off the injured foot the way you do with the stronger foot?)
It could even feel like certain muscles just don’t want to “activate” the way they used to.
If you could only loosen up a few muscles or start activating them again, you know the foot or ankle pain would start to feel better and allow for more mobility.
But every time you think you’re feeling better and decide to push it, it just flares right back up again.
All of these feelings – tightness, moving differently (compensation patterns), muscle activation, and “flare ups” are driven by the nervous system.
When you experience a foot injury or ankle injury or have persistent pain, the nervous system starts to use the foot (and even muscles in the lower legs) differently.
In fact, the nervous system drives muscle activation, which drives movement.
If that sequence isn’t firing properly, the recovery process can be difficult, range of motion becomes limited, and pain signals amplify.
During Neuro Therapy, we “tap in” to the nervous system using electricity in order to determine where muscles aren’t activating properly... consider these your "weakest links."
Once we find them, we’re able to precisely target those areas and re-train the nervous system to utilize the muscles properly.
When the muscles start to work properly again, the foot and ankle can start to function normally (and without pain).
But you don’t have to take my word for it – I understand that Neuro Therapy is new and what I’m saying is a little “outside the box.” I thought the same thing when I was introduced to the process 5 years ago.
For that reason, I want to help you gather all the information needed to determine if Neuro is the right fit for your foot pain or ankle pain.
I want you to learn about Neuro Therapy and experience what it can do for you without any risk or obligation.

So here's what I do for prospective clients. I offer a free, 1 on 1, 90 minute Neuro Therapy session. You'll get to go through a full Neuro Therapy session from beginning to end and have plenty of time to ask questions.
During the session, you can expect to learn the following about your foot/ankle pain:
What muscles are not activating properly and contributing to your foot pain or ankle pain
What movement patterns and ranges of motion are contributing to your foot pain or ankle pain
What movement patterns and ranges of motion are contributing to your foot pain or ankle pain
How we can work together to fix it
Who knows, you might even experience a little bit of relief or increase in range of motion.
By the end, you'll have all the information you need to make a decision on whether Neuro is the right fit for you.
