Testimonial - Ankle Pain

I had an ankle injury one year ago that required me to have surgery. After the surgery, the ankle had limited range of motion and was painful. I saw Dr. Armstrong and she was able to relieve the pain and tightness in the joint. I had a procedure called Gua Sha done to my ankle. She explained to me that this would break up adhesions and scar tissue that was causing my pain and limited range of motion. It was so nice to have someone actually listen to my concerns and take time with me. I never felt like she was rushing with my treatment. I have and will continue to recommend Dr. Armstrong to my friends and family.

Testimonials - Arthritis & Ankle Pain

I am so glad that I found Dr. Andrea Armstrong. I have suffered with pain for years. I have had neck and shoulder pain for over forty years and her adjustments have made it almost pain free. Five years ago I broke my ankle. My orthopedic doctor told me that the swelling would never go away. My back has been extremely painful for the last two years due to my altered gate from the ankle fracture.

I went through two rounds of physical therapy and was told I have arthritis in my L4 and L5. I still experienced extreme pain even on pain meds and was told I needed steroid injections. I could not sweep, stand or sit for long peroids without severe pain. My stomach is very sensitive and I can not take anti-inflammatory drugs.

Finally I went online to check for a chiropractor with my insurance.

There was Dr. Armstrong. After just a few weeks my neck and shoulder pain is greatly reduced, my back rarely hurts and the swelling in my ankle is gone. I never thought it would this easy to become pain free.

Thank you Dr. Armstrong, I am so glad you became a chiropractor.

Ankle Pain

Whether the result of a sports injury or simply walking from point a to point b, ankle pain and having a sprained ankle is not fun to deal with.  The most common mechanism of injury causing an ankle sprain is one in which the foot is turned inward, causing a strain to the outside of the ankle. Swelling, pain, and stiffness will soon follow. Early aggressive treatment of ankle sprains in the acute stage is crucial for quicker recovery, as well as optimal healing over the long term. Even though the pain and swelling will often resolve over time, recurrences are common without proper treatment & rehabilitation.

In the acute stage of recovery, chiropractic treatment can provide relief by reducing the level of pain and swelling using manipulation and physiotherapy. Proper bracing, compression bandages, and splints can also be applied in the office. Therapeutic exercises will also be given in order to rehabilitate the muscles, ligaments, and ankle joint. This will strengthen the area and prevent re-injury.  Please call to set up an appointment today.
