Background/Relevance to Physiotherapy Practice

The cause of a patient’s foot pain, especially if chronic, can be difficult to diagnose. Treatment of this complicated region may require patient education, exercise, manual therapy, and other adjunctive therapies such as tape and modalities.

Learning Objectives:

• To develop clinical reason skills that enable the clinician to determine the cause of the foot pain.
• To implement a multi-modal treatment approach to foot pain.
