Treatment steps:
1. Pelvis Adjustment: Using side posture, a drop table, or an activator to adjust the pelvis, is crucial to have proper pelvic function when addressing the foot.
2. Knee and Hip Treatment: We then check to see if there is proper movement and activation of glutes and the posterior chain.
3. Foot and Calf Treatment: We can adjust the calcaneus (heel), and address any adhesions or tightness in the calf to ensure the full range of motion is present.
4. Toe Treatment: Here, the focus is on full dorsiflexion, especially of the big toe, which is essential for walking, running, and jumping.
Complementary Therapies:
Acupuncture: After sanitizing the area, needles are inserted into the calf. Patients remain with needles for 12-20 minutes. Typically, treatments are 1-2 times a week for several weeks, with regular progress exams.
