OVERVIEW

ABOUT FOOT & ANKLE REHAB

Foot and ankle pain doesn’t just stay in your foot. It changes your whole day. A short walk feels longer. Standing at the sink feels heavier. Trying to exercise feels like a chore. Sprains, heel pain, stiffness from surgery, even old injuries that never healed right, all of them can slow you down. And if they stick around, they can change how you walk and even affect your knees or hips.

At Modern Medicine of Chandler, AZ, we don’t stop at treating pain. We look at what’s really behind it. Sometimes it’s weak muscles. Sometimes it’s stiff tissue. Sometimes it’s balance. Rehab can be strengthening, stretching, balance training, or hands-on work to ease tension.  

BOOKING APPOINTMENTS

It’s simple. Call Modern Medicine of Chandler, AZ or use the online option. We’ll answer your questions, let you know what to bring, and make sure you’re ready for the first visit.

One visit won’t fix everything. Most patients need sessions spread across weeks. That way, progress builds slowly, holds steady, and doesn’t disappear when therapy ends. 

DIAGNOSE

EXAM & IMAGING

Your first visit is about finding answers. We’ll check your strength, your flexibility, your balance. We’ll also watch how you walk. Sometimes just seeing how your foot hits the ground explains why the pain keeps coming back. 

TREATMENTS

CUSTOM TREATMENT PROGRAM

Treatment depends on what we see. It might be exercises to make weak areas stronger. It might be stretches to loosen things up. Others need hands-on work to break up stiffness or scar tissue.  

FOLLOW UP

WE CALL TO CHECK IN

Follow-ups keep you on track. We see what’s working, what’s not, and adjust so you don’t stall. Week by week, the ankle or foot grows stronger, steadier, and more reliable.

Office was very welcoming from the moment you walked into the office, Marissa and Kelsey were there to greet me. They know all of their patients and treat them like family. Dr. Dault was AMAZING. SHE listened and really searched to find the answers to my pain. Eric was very thorough when doing my ultrasound to diagnose my issue. Their recommendations helped me and in the end my pain decreased! Thank you to the entire team!

I was in a pretty dark place before starting at the Chandler location. My low back pain was completely debilitating and affecting the quality of my life for many years. I saw Phil once a week for 6 weeks and feel stronger and more confident than I have in many, many years. Phil explained the results of my MRI in great detail and answered my questions (as trivial as they might have been) with respect and understanding... I have been to many physical therapists before and the results I got here were the best. I highly recommend the Chandler location and will go back again if I ever need to!

What Are You Experiencing?

You might not know what treatment you need, as most people don’t. What you do know is that something hurts. That’s enough for us to start. Fill out this quick form and just tell us how it feels. We’ll look it over and reach out to talk through what could be going on and what might help.

  LOW  HIGH  

SEVERE PAIN

If your pain feels like too much to handle, please don’t wait around. Call 911 or get to the nearest hospital. Once the emergency part is taken care of, we’ll be here to help you with longer-term support.

MODERATE PAIN / DISCOMFORT

Maybe it’s not stopping you from getting through the day, but it’s always there feeling sharp, dull, or just plain annoying. Let us know what it feels like. We’ll work with you to figure out why it’s happening and how to make things easier.

MINOR PAINS & ACHES

A little soreness or stiffness might not sound like much, but it can still mess with your day. Those small aches are often your body’s way of saying something needs attention. Tell us what you’ve been noticing, and we’ll help keep it from turning into something worse.

Answering Your Questions

Can ankle pain linger if I ignore it?

It usually does. The type of sprain which will not recover properly can leave your ankle unstable for years to come. The end result being you’re at higher risk of re-spraining it just by walking down the block.

Why is balance training such a big part of rehab?

Because strength in isolation isn’t sufficient. You can have strong muscles but still not feel stable. Balance exercises train your ankle to respond in day-to-day life as in stepping down from a curb, as in breaking your fall when you do stumble.

Is therapy painful?

Not the way people think. You’ll be stiff at times afterwards, as if you have worked out, but it shouldn’t hurt in little jabs. If it does, we adjust. The whole point here is to rehab your ankle, not to mistreat it.

Do I need a referral to start therapy?

Not typically. You can simply call and set it up. If your plan necessitates us to have a referral, we’ll take care of it for you before wasting a visit. We provide an easy process to get started.

What if I’ve already tried resting and icing?

That’s usually the initial step, and it’s good in the short run. Rest on its own, however, doesn’t undo strength or fix whatever injured you in the first place. That’s why it keeps coming back. Therapy fills in gaps and gives your ankle an actual opportunity to heal.

"Our goal is to help you solve some of your most painful life experiences."

MODERN MEDICINE
CEO

"When an athlete gets injured, a team of doctors and therapists evaluates them, orders imaging, and decides the best path forward. If surgery is needed, they go straight to surgery; if not, they get condition-specific physical therapy and targeted injections to speed healing. This is the same process pro athletes use to get back on the field quickly—and at Modern, you can access that same level of care for the same cost as any other physical therapy clinic."   - Josh Adams

WHY WE'RE DIFFERENT

CHOOSING THE MODERN WAY

What separates MODERN SPORTS MEDICINE from just about every other company is our physical therapists and orthopedists utlize advanced imaging technology to enable them to SEE what they are doing.  Everyone else is operating blindly.
