I teamed up with @lizbayleyphysio.bsky.social to create this progressive rehab programme for Plantar Heel Pain.
We've called it 'LiTHE' (Liz and Tom's Heel Exercises) and it's aimed at active and sporty patients. It's not a recipe though so it's best to adapt it to suit individual needs.

If you’re a physio, you need this 📘
Loads of quick ref pages with clinically relevant info that will help you identify potential inflammatory pathology & make perfect referrals. The back cover alone is worth having it for 🤩

Knee-to-Wall Test 🦵🏼
MCID
1.6 cm inter-clinician
1.9 cm intra-clinician
(Powden 2015)
What can happen with limited dorsiflexion?
🔹BSI in the LL owing to reduced load absorption
🔹Increased risk of lateral ankle sprains
🔹There might be an increased risk of pathologies such as plantar fasciitis & PTTD

Midfoot Pain 🦶🏼👈🏼
Excluding neural, so remember to consider superficial peroneal nerve for dorsal foot. Deep peroneal is 1-2 webspace (more forefoot). BSI of navicular, base of 2nd MT & Jones # (zone 2 5th MT) are highest risk areas ⚠️
