Flat Feet

file-20220202-23-wyl9dy.jpg

Flat feet appear to have no or very little arch height and excessively roll inwards and down towards the floor when you're standing. You might appear to have a well-defined arch when sitting, however its the position while standing that we're most interested in.   

​

Flat (pronated) feet can place excess strain on muscles, tendons, ligaments, and bones in the feet. This can make you more at risk for injury and pain.  

​

This may be present from a young child or develop gradually as you age.

Treatment

may include: 

> rest, ice, compression, and elevation

> footwear modifications

> stretching and strengthening exercises

> strapping

> orthotic therapy

> foot mobilisation

> shockwave or dry needling

> load and activity management
