(Arthritis Of The Big Toe)

Hallux rigidus is defined as osteoarthritis of the big toe. This condition causes stiffness that limits joint range of motion, in flexion and mainly extension of the hallux, causing an alteration of the normal biomechanics of walking.

A direct trauma to the toe or a deformity of the foot called hallux valgus may increase the symptoms of hallux rigidus.

To date, the exact causes of osteoarthritis have not been fully identified. An exacerbation of symptoms usually occurs during a period when the level of physical activity has been drastically increased.

Treatment of Hallux Rigid consists of Class IV Laser Therapy, management of any biomechanics stresses in the area and exercise rehabilitation to address any weaknesses that can be putting undue stress on the area.

A hamstring strain describes a rupture of fibers of muscles located on the posterior side of the thigh. This can occur during an intense and/or sudden muscle contraction, or during a violent stretch, imposing excessive tension on the muscles and their tendons. A partial or complete tear of one or more affected muscles may also be present.

People who have already had a strain are more at risk of recurrence, especially if no progressive retraining was performed prior to resuming intense sports activities.

Treatment of hamstring injuries consists of Class IV Laser Therapy, management of any biomechanics stresses in the area and exercise rehabilitation to address any weaknesses that can be putting undue stress on the area.

A lateral ankle sprain (LAS) occurs when you twist or roll your ankle inward.

This can happen by walking/running on an uneven surface, stepping on someone else’s foot, pivoting or changing direction during sport.

The severity of the sprain can range from mild to severe.

Treatment of ankle sprains consists of Class IV Laser Therapy, management of any biomechanics stresses in the area and exercise rehabilitation to address any weaknesses that can be putting undue stress on the area.
