Are you struggling to help your clients overcome the roadblocks to recovery from chronic foot and ankle pain?

The limitations imposed by chronic and foot and ankle injury can have a profound impact on a persons’ physical and emotional well-being, independence and security.  They may feel frustrated, depressed, anxious, or fearful of the future.  They may be unable to exercise, play sport, travel, shop or socialise. As practitioners we share their frustration when they fail to progress with treatment, despite our best efforts. We might ask ourselves “what am I missing?” or “what will I do next?” We may question our ability to help them achieve their goals, undermining our own confidence and job satisfaction. Like you, I know the frustration of seeing clients with chronic foot and ankle pain lose hope when they have failed to respond despite multiple treatments, including surgery.  I needed to find what was missing in my approach in order to remove the roadblocks to their recovery. This challenge led me on a life long journey of discovery and has become my passion. 

With this course you can develop the knowledge and skills that enables them to succeed and get their life back on track

Through developing a systematic and integrated problem-solving approach, I have helped many people resolve their chronic foot and ankle injuries when other treatments have failed. I will guide and support you step by step, so you can develop the advanced knowledge and skills that will enable you to break through the roadblocks to recovery and transform your results.

This approach combines:

  • digging deeper in the story to discover the clues others have missed
  • expanding your viewpoint  to discover all possible sources of symptoms
  • discovering why the injury has occurred and persisted
  • developing a detailed understanding of the integrated anatomy and biomechanics of the foot and ankle
  • knowledge of the complex interactions within the foot and ankle and with the rest of the body
  • thorough assessment of local and remote areas of the body
  • clincially relevant research evidence that changed my practice
  • clinical reasoning to develop a treatment plan and know where to start
  • strategic thinking and coaching to engage your clients in their recovery
  • fine tuned manual therapy skills that let you work smarter not harder
  • targeted exercise prescription to restore mobility and retrain movement
  • access to the best resources to educate, train and coach your clients

“Resolving chronic foot and ankle pain, when all hope seemed lost, is a joyous win-win for the client and therapist”
