Run Pain-Free: Non-Surgical Bunion & Plantar Fasciitis Care

Foot pain from bunions affects over one in three Australians. Bunions, defined as the swelling and misalignment of the area where your big toe joins your mid-foot, are an all too common podiatry problem. According to doctors and most podiatrists, the only way to fix a bunion is surgery. NOT TRUE! Now there’s a painless natural way to effectively treat and correct your bunions.

Plantar Fasciitis/Heel Spurs

Normally, heel pain or pain in the arch of your foot is due to a condition called plantar fasciitis or heel spurs. The condition is brought on by an inflammation in the fascia or tissue under your foot. The inflammation causes micro-tears in the tissue, which bleed and become painful. This pain is often worse after sitting or when waking up in the morning. Any weight-bearing activities can provoke it, and if left long enough the condition will restrict activity.

Meet Alison, a patient with a classic case of bunions and plantar fasciitis. In Alison’s case, both conditions were primarily caused by the misalignment of her lower limb, which affected the way she walked and ran.

Alison had advanced bunions bilaterally (the big toe turned inwards), and was suffering from plantar fasciitis. When we met her, she was extremely frustrated because she was used to being active but was now unable to exercise. The problems with her feet were also making her job as a theatre nurse increasingly difficult.

It is always our top priority to help our patients achieve their goals. Alison’s main goal was to be able to run again. She was surprised to hear that we could straighten her bunion too, as it was quite advanced.

After medically assessing Alison’s case during our initial consultation, we referred her for an X-ray. This is Alison’s initial X-ray. As you can see, it shows a bunion angle of 29 degrees on the left big toe and 34 degrees on the right. The ideal angle is 12–15 degrees. We definitely had some work to do on a few fronts. After discussion, we decided on a course of foot mobilisation in conjunction with strengthening exercises.

Running again in under a month!

To her credit, Alison was enthusiastic about the appointments and the exercises. She reported a significant diminishing of pain in both the bunion and the plantar fasciitis, to the point where we decided she could start running again.

In Alison’s case, the four weeks were the most intense aspect of the treatment, with a reduction in frequency of visits after that.

 

We have successfully treated thousands of bunions and plantar fasciitis cases at Sydney Bunion Clinic, and we believe that there is a better alternative to surgery or the constant pain inflicted by a bunion. We know that the sooner the bunion is treated, the better the long-term result.

What is a bunion?

Bunions are a deviation of the big toe where the big toe joint shifts toward the middle of the foot. This can be accompanied by symptoms including pain and a bony growth that turns into a large lump.

Research shows that bunions are extremely prevalent in Australia, affecting ⅓ of the population. Over the age of 60, it’s suggested to be as high as 70%. When left untreated bunions can also be linked to other risks and complications.

Bunions are caused by a number of factors including a family history of bunions, footwear choices and the way you stand and walk, however misalignment of the foot is often the underlying cause.

How is a bunion treated?

You may have been told that bunion surgery is the only treatment option available however, there is an non surgical treatment for bunions . We have worked treating bunion without surgery for over 20 years.

Conservative management, such as foot mobilisation, is most effective when treatment of the bunion begins as early as possible, even if the sufferer feels no pain. As a result, often by the time a bunion starts to be painful, significant irreversible damage has already occurred.
