Chiropractor Provides Massage Therapy, Extremity Adjustments and Rehabilitation

The daily wear and tear on our feet results in enormous amounts of shocking pressure. That pressure is translated to stress that ends up distributed throughout our entire body. Compounding the daily abuse from hours of walking, standing, and otherwise getting around are ill-fitting or unsupportive shoes. High-heels, pointy toes, and other chic yet painful styles may look fashionable, but they are also a major contributor to foot pain and foot problems that require rehabilitation, such as plantar fasciitis. Foot issues can lead to abnormal walking patterns, mechanical stress and pain, pain that refers up our legs into the low back and potentially the entire body.

Dr. Forster's extensive training in extremity adjusting began with her studies at Life Chiropractic College West and continued with her specialization in foot adjusting since 2004. Her care routinely begins with a thorough foot scan and foot exam, a beneficial evaluation for all patients, even those not suffering from foot pain or related issues like plantar fasciitis. Her foot adjustment techniques foremost help restore body mechanics to their proper form and function which, in turn, can alleviate back pain, foot pain, headaches, and other agony that streams through the entire body.

To help ensure foot health, which is the foundation for total body health, adjustments can be followed up with massage therapy, foot exercises and stretches, icing if warranted, rehabilitation and wellness tips that include the feet but extend beyond them to encompass the health of the entire body. We also make custom orthotics as a service for rehabilitation.
