[Sydney, May 27, 2016] – Ergoworks Physiotherapy and Consulting Pty Ltd, a trusted physiotherapy clinic in Sydney, offers treatments for foot and ankle injuries. The clinic specialises in treatment plans for an ankle sprain, ankle fracture, Achilles injuries, Plantar Fasciitis, and stress fractures.

[b]Ankle Sprain[/b]

An ankle sprain is caused by the over-stretching or tearing of the ligaments outside of the ankle. The clinic treats this injury with the RICE (rest, ice, compression, elevation) principle. The clinic also conducts manual therapy to help restore the ankle’s normal range and function.

[b]Ankle Fracture[/b]

Ankle fractures also involve ligament tears outside of the ankle. But the physiotherapist is trained to diagnose the difference between an ankle sprain and an ankle fracture. Once the x-ray shows a fracture, the treatment would start by immobilising the ankle in a cast for 4-6 weeks.

[b]Achilles Injuries[/b]

Typically caused by poor footwear or intense training, Achilles injuries need various treatments. Depending on the severity of the injury, the treatment may involve physiotherapy, immobilisation in a boot, or even surgery.

[b]Plantar Fasciitis[/b]

This injury usually involves massive pain under the foot, around the heel area. The clinic conducts physiotherapy treatment for this injury. In some cases, the physiotherapist refers the patient to a podiatrist for additional assessment and management.

[b]Stress Fracture[/b]

This injury is an incomplete crack or fracture in the bone. The treatment for stress fracture initially involves immobilisation in a cast, followed by physiotherapy management.

Ergoworks Physiotherapy and Consulting Pty Ltd is composed of professional physiotherapists. The clinic implements one-on-one hands-on treatment to ensure optimum results. If needed, the physiotherapists can refer the patient to trusted specialists for further assessment and treatment.

Ergoworks Physiotherapy and Consulting Pty Ltd is located in the central business district of Sydney. The clinic accepts same-day appointments and performs a full assessment of the injury.
