Flat Foot
Flat Foot
Noticing foot pain, fatigue, or instability when standing or walking for long periods? You may have flat feet, a condition where the arches of your feet collapse or do not form properly, causing the entire sole to come into contact with the ground. At Theracave, we help individuals manage discomfort caused by flat feet with personalized physical therapy—improving alignment, reducing strain, and supporting long-term mobility.
Flat foot, or fallen arches, can be present from childhood or develop later in life due to age, injury, or overuse. While not always painful, flat feet can contribute to problems in the ankles, knees, hips, and even the lower back if left unaddressed. Early intervention can help prevent long-term complications and improve function in daily activities.

Q&A
What is flat foot and how is it diagnosed?
Flat foot is a condition where the arch of the foot is lower than normal or absent, causing the sole to make full contact with the ground. It’s usually diagnosed through physical examination, gait analysis, and sometimes imaging.
Is flat foot always painful?
No. Many people with flat feet have no symptoms. However, for others, flat feet can lead to pain, fatigue, and alignment issues that affect the entire kinetic chain—from the ankles up to the back.
Can physical therapy help flat feet?
Yes. Physical therapy can improve foot mechanics, strengthen supportive muscles, reduce pain, and correct movement patterns. Combined with orthotic support and proper footwear, therapy can significantly reduce symptoms.
When should I seek help for flat foot?
If you’re experiencing foot, ankle, or lower body pain that affects daily activity—or if your feet appear to flatten more over time—it’s best to consult a professional. Early intervention can prevent further problems and improve comfort.
