Spring is a time when many people think of taking physical activity up a notch - whether you are just starting, a weekend warrior or train regularly.
Overtraining syndrome can result when the physical stress placed on an athlete is greater than the body can handle, leading to an array of symptoms and decreased athletic performance.
Physical Therapy can help you avoid overtraining by educating you on the risks and symptoms of overtraining, and by developing a gradual training program for you to follow to avoid injury.

Have you ever heard of Plantar Fasciitis?
Plantar fasciitis is an inflammatory condition that can cause moderate to severe foot pain that is worse in the morning and when putting weight on the foot. While this condition can take up to a full year to completely resolve, Physical Therapy can help to manage symptoms.
A proper assessment that looks at your lifestyle, posture and walking or running pattern will help to identify common culprits. Manual therapy and modalities, including ice, ultrasound or shockwave, as well as custom orthotics, are some of the recommendations for plantar fasciitis.
