Optimizing Ankle Mobility for Walking and Running

Course overview

Joint mobility, particularly in the foot and ankle, is necessary for proper loading and unloading of impact forces during ambulation.  Any restriction in joint mobility can lead to compensation patterns, transfer stress and increased risk of injury. Join Functional Podiatrist Dr Emily Splichal as she explores some of the most common, but not so obvious, reasons for limited ankle dorsiflexion. Learn how to differentiate between soft tissue and osseous restrictions, as well as how to address the various restrictions in an in-office setting.
