At Palm Beach Health Center, chiropractic adjustment is the primary therapy for foot and ankle problems. This treatment is focused on diagnosing and managing discomfort in the lower extremities through noninvasive techniques. Chiropractic care is safer than operations performed by foot and ankle surgeons. Our skilled providers can restore proper alignment and function of the joints and soft tissues in several comfortable sessions.
Custom orthotics are shoe inserts specially designed and molded to fit an individual’s feet. They correct biomechanical imbalances, provide cushioning and support, and redistribute pressure across the foot. For example, diabetic shoes accommodate foot deformities and help prevent ulcers. Orthotics can be made from various materials, including plastic, foam, and carbon fiber.
Functional rehabilitation focuses on restoring strength, flexibility, endurance, coordination, and range of motion through targeted therapeutic exercises and activities. Instead of isolated muscle exercises, functional rehab aims to improve all movement patterns using balance boards, resistance bands, foam rollers, and other props. Our activities simulate real-world motions.
Shockwave therapy utilizes high-energy sound waves directed at the affected area through the skin’s surface. This innovative treatment stimulates healing and breaks up scar tissue, calcifications, and chronic inflammations. It impacts cell behavior, blood vessel growth, and metabolism. No surgery or anesthesia is required.
Joint injections deliver a dosage of medication directly into the joint space. Commonly injected medications include corticosteroids, hyaluronic acid, platelet-rich plasma, and stem cells. They aim to reduce inflammation, lubricate the joint, and stimulate healing. The injections can provide temporary to prolonged pain relief.
Fascial stretch therapy aims to relieve tension, improve mobility, and decrease discomfort through assisted stretching. A practitioner gently tractions or elongates the body’s fascia — sheets or bands of connective tissues surrounding muscles, nerves, and vessels. This may help the fascia return to normal after an ankle injury, inflammation, broken bones, or poor posture.

Laser therapy delivers targeted photonic energy to the skin’s surface. It interacts with tissues and cells to reduce inflammation and accelerate healing. The focused light beams can penetrate deeply and do not damage surrounding tissues. Many wavelengths can be used, including cold laser and infrared laser.

Initial Consultation and Assessment
Chiropractic Session: Step by Step
Recovery Timeline and Expectations
The recovery timeline varies depending on the severity of the condition and the type of treatment received. Generally, minor sprains improve within a few weeks, while more complex issues, like fractures, could take several months. Patients should pay attention to their bodies and gradually increase activity levels when pain decreases. Â
Tips for a Successful Recovery
Our doctors will recommend specific exercises to strengthen the muscles supporting your ankle and foot. These exercises can improve stability and prevent future injuries.
Icing, applying compression wraps, and elevating your left or right foot may significantly reduce swelling and promote healing.
We recommend investing in comfortable, well-fitting shoes that provide firm arch support. They will reduce joint stress and help maintain good alignment.
Don’t push yourself too hard, too soon. Gradually increase activity levels as your pain improves.Â
