Do you find it challenging to remember the anatomy and function of all the muscles of the foot and ankle? Are those intrinsic muscles of the foot a little overwhelming? Do you find yourself prescribing the same exercises for every foot and ankle patient, regardless of presentation? If so, this foot and ankle course is right for you.
Our course explores the different aspects of foot and ankle function and the implications this has for muscle and movement assessment and therapeutic exercise prescription around the foot and ankle. Enhance your clinical skills with our course by drawing on almost 20 years of clinical and research experience presented in a simple and digestible format that you can work through in our own time.

The foot and ankle are critical in keeping a person upright and stable through functional weightbearing movement. The foot and ankle are involved in shock absorption, propulsion, balance mechanisms, and provide essential information to the brain for motor planning of the whole kinetic chain. Dysfunction of the foot and ankle has been linked with both local and more proximal pain and injury — which means it has never been more important to provide the correct strategies and exercises for your clients.
