Ankle injuries that go untreated can result in chronic ankle pain and further injury. Think you may have an ankle injury? If so, you may experience other symptoms such as:

• Ankle instability
• Popping noise or sensation at the time of your injury

At Proactive Chiropractic, we take the time to discover what the cause is for your ankle pain before we create your treatment plan. We offer x-ray as well as a comprehensive exam, giving us insight into what chiropractic treatment will work best for your underlying condition.

How Can a Chiropractor Treat Your Ankle Pain?

During your exam, if ankle injury is found, resulting in inflammation, your chiropractor will recommend R.I.C.E or rest, ice, compression and elevation. However, as inflammation decreases, chiropractic adjustments to the ankle can be effective at helping you heal.

Not only does chiropractic treatment reduce ankle pain, but it can also help strengthen your joints, preventing further injury to the ankle. Dr. Khlebopros is knowledgeable in not only chiropractic care but also orthotics, focusing on foot and ankle pain.
