Foot Pain: What’s the Deal?
Foot pain is something loads of us go through, and it can really throw a spanner in your daily life. Your feet are proper complex, with tons of bones, ligaments, tendons, and muscles all working together, so it’s no wonder they can get knackered or injured easily.
What Causes Foot Pain
There’s a bunch of reasons your feet might be hurting – things like plantar fasciitis, Achilles trouble, bunions, fractures, or even arthritis. Wearing rubbish shoes or standing for ages can make it worse, and stuff like flat feet or high arches can play a part too.
How Sports Massage and Remedial Therapists can help
Sports massage and remedial therapists are brill at sorting out foot pain. They use hands-on techniques to ease tightness, calm down inflammation, and get the blood flowing properly. They’ll have a proper look at how your feet move and come up with a plan to fix what’s wrong, whether it’s tight muscles or stiff joints. They might also give you some stretches or exercises to help you heal and keep the pain from coming back.
Tips to Keep Foot Pain at Bay
These therapists don’t just fix pain – they’ll give you tips to stop it happening in the first place. Think decent trainers, easy stretches you can do at home, or tweaking how you move to avoid overdoing it. Regular sessions can keep your feet in cracking shape and catch small niggles before they turn into proper problems.

What our clients say:
“Went to Elite performance unable to walk with a sudden attack of “Plantar Fascia” (no I didn’t know what it was either) a VERY sore heel. The first sign of real pain I called my sister in law, who is a Chiropractic nurse in the UK, she told me to “find the best sports massage centre quickly” the next day I did a google search and was pointed in the direction of Elite Performance in Mijas. Thanks to the help of Izabelle, I am now back on my feet as good as new. I would advise a visit with any odd aches or strains. Thanks so much Isy and the Elite Performance team.”
