Foot & Ankle Pain

Foot & Ankle Pain

Looking for an osteopath for foot and ankle pain in Kings Hill? At DCM Clinics, we help patients across Kings Hill, West Malling, Maidstone and Kent recover from heel pain, ankle sprains, Achilles problems and running-related foot injuries.

Foot and ankle pain often builds up through running, a sudden increase in training, long periods on your feet or changes in footwear, or follows a rolled ankle during sport. It can show up as sharp heel pain with your first steps in the morning, pain and stiffness in the Achilles, recurring ankle sprains, swelling, or an ankle that feels weak and unstable.

Our osteopaths start with a detailed assessment, using objective calf strength and force plate hop testing to measure how your foot and ankle load and to compare your left and right sides. Where needed, diagnostic ultrasound imaging lets us look directly at the tendon or ligament. Treatment combines hands-on osteopathy with a progressive rehab programme to rebuild strength, spring and stability, with shockwave therapy available for stubborn heel and tendon pain.

We help with:

  • Plantar heel pain (plantar fasciitis)
  • Achilles tendinopathy
  • Ankle sprains and recurring ankle instability
  • Calf strains
  • Running and sports-related foot and ankle injuries

Because we re-test your progress, you'll see measurable improvement. Book your foot and ankle assessment with an osteopath in Kings Hill today.
