Sports medicine rehabilitation and therapy for professional athletes, performance artists, yogis, tri-athletes, active adults and children. While heel pain is often negligible and ignored at first, this condition can seriously disrupt an individual's quality of life and physical health. Patients with diabetes are at a higher risk of nerve damage and circulation issues due to abnormally-high blood sugar levels.

As a cornerstone of our practice, JAWS Podiatry offers sports medicine rehabilitation and therapy to treat professional athletes, performance artists, yogis, tri-athletes and active adults and children. Heel pain, ankle sprains, fractures and tendon tears are common in individuals with active lifestyles, which can seriously disrupt professional careers, bodybuilding goals and healthy habits.

Trauma to the foot and ankle region is extremely common. You don't have to be extremely active to experience painful sprains, fractures and tears. Women over the age of 30 and men between 15- to 24-years old are the most susceptible to ankle sprains. Around 50 percent of sprains occur during physical exercise or athletics.
