If you have heel pain, your issue might actually start at your hip or calf. My goal is to identify that specific breakdown in your kinetic chain using movement screening. We won't just treat the painful area; we will address the underlying compensation so you can stop dealing with recurring setbacks. ### Treating the Kinetic Chain Your body works as a connected system. When one joint fails to move properly, the burden shifts to another, creating an overload. For example, a stiff ankle often forces the knee to compensate, which may eventually lead to knee pain or even ACL stress. My approach is to stop chasing the pain and start fixing the movement patterns that caused it. ### Common Conditions I Treat * **ACL & Knee Health:** Knee injuries are often preventable. I focus on landing mechanics, strength, and proprioception to protect your joints, whether you are an athlete or simply active. * **Tendinopathy (Achilles, Hamstring, Plantar Fascia):** These are often overuse issues. Instead of just resting, I use progressive loading to strengthen the tendon so it can handle your daily or athletic load again. * **Ankle Instability:** Weak ankles cause a ripple effect up to your lower back. I use targeted stability drills to build a foundation that supports your whole body. ### Understanding Your Pain It is vital to know when to push and when to pause. * **Good Pain:** Delayed muscle soreness that fades within 24 to 48 hours is a normal response to training. * **Bad Pain:** Sharp, stabbing sensations, or pain that persists beyond 48 hours, is a warning. If you feel this, stop overloading the tissue and seek a professional assessment. My rehab process is active, not passive. I do not recommend long periods of total bed rest unless strictly necessary. Controlled movement is medicine, and my goal is to guide you through a structured, data-backed plan that gets you back to running, lifting, or playing without fear of re-injury. ## About Paridhi Ojha I am Dr. Paridhi Ojha, and I believe you don't need to break your body to be a better athlete.
