Strength & lower-limb rehab

Lower-limb rehab is a progressive strength plan, built up step by step, for foot, ankle, Achilles and shin pain. It starts from where you are now: your time, the equipment at home and the walk, workday or sport you want back. Hands-on care or shockwave may be added where appropriate.

How we can help at Burwood Podiatry

A progressive strength plan that starts from where you are now: your time, your space and what you want to get back to.

• An assessment of what's driving the pain and whether exercise suits it
• A starting set that fits your time, space and equipment at home; no gym needed
• Progress you can see, with reviews to build it up
• Hands-on care or shockwave added where appropriate
• Plans for Achilles, shin, heel, ankle and sports injuries

What happens at your appointment

1. Assess

   We look at the injury, your strength and movement, and the activity you want back.

2. Start

   You leave with a short set of exercises we've practised together.

3. Review

   We agree how progress is judged, then build it up at each review.

If you can't bear weight, have marked swelling or deformity, or suspect a fracture, seek urgent medical care. Emergency, or a foot that suddenly turns cold, pale or blue? Call 000.
