Align’s successful ankle and foot pain protocol

    1. Restore Calm: Our first objective is to deactivate the overly tight muscles locking down your hips, ankles, feet, and toes into dysfunctional patterns.

    2. Restore Mobility: Next we restore healthy range of motion back to your hips, ankles, feet, and toes. This reduces pain, makes movement easier, and gives us access to the small, chronically weak stabilizer muscles that have been shut down. 

    3. Restore Stability: Next we restore the ability to fire back to the small atrophied muscles in the core, hips, ankles, feet, and toes. This creates stable joints that distribute loads evenly. This reduces pain and prepares us for strength training. 

    4. Restore Strength: Once we have a mobile and stable lower body joint system, we build strength and capacity to the hips, arch of the foot, and toes. This rebuilds the joints, muscles, and fascia, increases resilience, and makes every day movements easy and pain free.

  • If needed, your Functional Nutritionist is going to identify and eliminate inflammation inducing foods and restore critical nutrition. This will decrease pain and stiffness and improve overall well being, energy levels, and sleep. 

  • If needed, your Pain Counselor will help walk you through lowering your stress, anxiety, depression, loneliness, and sleeping issues. This is accomplished through a personalized prescription that could include meditation, sleep hygiene practices, cognitive behavioral therapy, and talk therapy.
