UNDERSTANDING ARCH PAIN

Arch pain can originate from a variety of conditions affecting the complex structure of the midfoot. Whether you have flat feet (fallen arches), high arches, or have developed pain from overuse, the discomfort can significantly impact your daily life and work.

Common causes of arch pain:

Flat Feet (Pes Planus): When the arch collapses, causing the entire sole to contact the ground
High Arches (Pes Cavus): Excessive arch height that places excess pressure on the heel and ball of the foot
Posterior Tibial Tendon Dysfunction: Weakening of the tendon that supports the arch
Plantar Fasciitis: Inflammation of the tissue supporting the arch
Stress Fractures: Small cracks in the bones of the midfoot from overuse
Arthritis: Joint inflammation in the midfoot area

ADVANCED DIAGNOSTIC APPROACH

Dr. Storts uses advanced gait analysis technology including a state-of-the-art gait mat to evaluate how you walk and identify the biomechanical factors contributing to your arch pain. This technology provides precise measurements of:

Pressure distribution across your foot
Walking patterns and gait abnormalities
Pronation and supination assessment
Weight-bearing alignment

This data-driven approach ensures your treatment plan addresses the root cause of your pain, not just the symptoms.

TREATMENT OPTIONS

Based on your diagnosis and gait analysis, treatment may include:

Custom Orthotics: Precisely designed orthotic devices based on your gait analysis to support your specific arch type
Physical Therapy: Targeted exercises to strengthen supporting muscles and improve flexibility
Regenerative Medicine: PRP or stem cell therapy for damaged tendons and ligaments
Bracing and Support: Ankle-foot orthoses for more severe structural issues
Surgical Reconstruction: For cases where conservative treatment isn't sufficient

Most patients experience significant improvement within weeks of starting treatment. Call (740) 851-4003 to schedule your gait analysis and consultation.
