Foot and ankle issues can have a major impact on mobility and overall quality of life.
Whether you’re experiencing discomfort while walking, standing, or performing daily activities, pain in these areas can make even simple tasks feel impossible.
We take a comprehensive approach to foot and ankle conditions, working closely with podiatrists, physical therapists, and other healthcare professionals to provide a well-rounded treatment plan.
Our goal is not just to relieve pain but to promote lasting healing.
Common Foot & Ankle Conditions We Treat
- Plantar Fasciitis – Inflammation of the tissue along the bottom of the foot, causing heel pain
- Achilles Tendonitis – Irritation and stiffness in the Achilles tendon, often from overuse
- Tarsal Tunnel Syndrome – Nerve compression in the foot, leading to pain and tingling
- Peripheral Neuropathy – Nerve damage that causes burning, numbness, and weakness
- Morton’s Neuroma – Thickening of tissue around nerves in the toes, causing sharp pain
Common foot and ankle conditions we treat include plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendinitis, and general instability or pain from injuries. For an in-depth look at how we address plantar fasciitis, read our blog post here.

- Our expert practitioners select and tailor herbal formulas to your specific needs
Acupuncture for Foot & Ankle Conditions
Acupuncture is an evidence-based treatment that stimulates the body's natural healing processes. Through the placement of hair-thin needles at specific acupuncture points, we can:
- Reduce pain and inflammation in the foot and ankle
- Improve blood circulation to speed up recovery
- Address nerve-related issues like peripheral neuropathy and tarsal tunnel syndrome
- Strengthen connective tissues over a series of treatments for long-term healing
Unlike quick fixes, acupuncture is designed to not only relieve short-term pain but to create lasting tissue change, improving strength and mobility over time.
