Foot & Ankle Pain in La Crosse
Relieve Foot & Ankle Pain in La Crosse
Do you wince with each step due to ankle stiffness or plantar foot pain? Many factors from arthritis to overuse wear can provoke lower limb discomfort hindering stability and mobility.
At O’Brien Physical Therapy & Wellness, our certified specialists meticulously evaluate foot and ankle pain to pinpoint precise causes often missed on standard exams so customized treatment can begin realigning damage before it worsens.
What Contributes to Foot & Ankle Pain?
The lower limb contacts the ground thousands of times daily bearing full body weight in motion, making feet and ankles vulnerable to alignment faults and accumulative wear over time.
Some frequent causes of painful foot and ankle symptoms include:
- Repetitive Impact
- Abnormal Foot Mechanics
- Trauma Sprains
- Arthritic Changes
Personalized Pain Relief & Functional Solutions
We offer customized, integrative treatment blending multiple healing disciplines and ergonomic strategies for lasting relief of foot and ankle discomfort based on each patient’s unique injury profile:
- Physical Therapy – Targeted stretches, exercises and manual therapy focused on the ankle/lower limb strengthen areas that have weakened from disuse while restoring coordinated range of motion. Stable movement patterns prevent re-injury.
- Injury Prevention – Finally, we provide invaluable education on proper activity warm-up/cool-downs, selecting supportive athletic footwear constructed for individual foot proportions and building impact tolerance progressively.

“The team at O’Brien Physical Therapy is knowledgeable, empathetic, and go above and beyond to ensure they are providing exceptional care. I am an active woman in my 40’s – I run about 30 miles a week, bike, and lift weight. I have seen Chelsea and Jill for a variety of things including pelvic health, physical therapy for aches and pains related to running, shoulder and back pain, and runner’s boot camp. Each one goes the extra mile to ensure they understand what my needs are and help me achieve my health goals. I feel so comfortable with anyone at OPT, knowing I will be cared for and able to still do the things I love and remain healthy.”
