Do you have ongoing foot pain that isn’t getting better? There are many ways a Podiatrist can treat your foot pain. In fact, often your treatment plan will consist of more than one type of treatment to get you back to a pain free lifestyle sooner.

Foot mobilisation Therapy (FMT) is one of the therapies we use at Moreland Podiatry and here’s how it can help you.

What is FMT?

It’s a hands-on therapy targeting your foot and ankle joints. FMT can help pin point the underlying issue that is causing your foot pain by using a technique that gently manipulates the foot, encouraging it to heal naturally and holistically.

Why use FMT?

With this gentle manual therapy, FMT stimulates the foot and encourages it to self-heal and restore. By reducing joint restrictions, it can help to realign your foot, correct foot posture and allow a strong foundation to reduce further injury of the foot. It’s used in conjunction with exercises to accelerate the healing process.
