Welcome to Orleans Physiotherapy’s resource about the ankle.
Ankle injuries can be a real pain, literally and figuratively. Not only can they lay you up or make you hobble around, they may cause you to banish your favorite pair of stilettos to the closet or cancel that game of touch football that you had planned for the weekend.
If you are currently in pain and suffering from an ankle injury, it is important that you know the facts about this sensitive area. After all, if your ankle injury is not given the proper attention and healed completely, you run the risk of it occurring again.
In this area of our site you will find various resources on the types of ankle injuries that you could suffer from as well as information about the steps that should be taken for fixing this problem.
Take the time and make sure you get proper attention; after all, you have better things to do than hobble around on a pair of crutches.

“ Jagrutiban at Orleans Physio is very knowledgable about chronic foot/ankle related issues. She's currently treating me for a haglund deformity and plantar fasciitis on my heel into my achilles with shockwave therapy and in 3 sessions I have had great improvement when nothing else would relieve my pain. ”

“ I have always appreciated the professionalism of Clint Dulude and the team of assistants at the "Orleans Physiotherapy" clinic. However, my experience was really improved with the use of acupuncture to manage pain after treatment and, in my case, to allow a faster recovery. Another remarkable technique that I would like to mention was the “Shock Wave Therapy” treatment used to treat chronic plantar fasciitis. The result was immediate and... lasting. Three years later, I saw Clint again following a car accident for chest pain. Not only have the treatments and exercises helped to stop this pain, but they have also helped to address a problem of nocturnal sternum pain that had bothered me for many years: I am extremely grateful to Clint for my new quality of sleep. It is therefore without hesitation that I recommend the services of Clint Dulude! ”

“ Came to Orleans physiotherapy a few months ago after having really bad achilles tendonitis. I was barely able to walk a km. Their website caught my attention with all the info. I had to try it out as my previous physiotherapist had moved to the west end. I felt welcomed by the staff. Jag, my physiotherapist is awesome A+. I was sceptical trying a new therapist but Jag put those doubts to rest after our first session. I received massages, acupuncture, stretching techniques, exercices to do at home, laser therapy and more. I’m now back to running 20k+ and on schedule to race my 5th Ironman triathlon in August. Staff is really knowledgable , professional and flexible. Clinic is very clean and inviting. Clinic has a big parking lot and it’s free. I would recommend Jag to anybody looking for a high quality physiotherapist that knows their stuff and is caring about your fast recovery. ”

“ I had a nagging achilles injury from baseball all summer that wasn't healing properly and developed a noticeable, painful bulge on my ankle. Within 3 visits Celine was able to make the bulge completely disappear and now I'm back to running pain free. Very impressed by their service and would highly recommend. ”

“ I can’t stress enough just how amazing Clint Dulude is as a human and a Physiotherapist. I went to him with legitimate, seriously painful conditions I didn’t know existed until they happened to me. He 100% cured my patella-femoral in both knees and my tennis elbow in both arms in a totally reasonable amount of sessions (they don’t try to “upsell”you trying to make you come back more often) and the experience is just pleasant. Great staff, great tools and technology and more importantly - it works. Back there for plantar fasciitis treatment and have no doubt the shockwave treatment will work for me. ”

“ I have been seeing Jag for my achilles tendonitis recently. She is so helpful, very knowledgeable, and a pleasure to talk with. She was able to diagnose and explain what is happening to me with ease. She uses a variety of techniques to help the healing process, and also gives me lots if different exercises to do at home. I developed this condition after a severe injury to my heel last summer, which i delayed getting treatment for. Jag is definitely giving me hope that my tendonitis will fully heal, I am even able to do full daily workouts again - yay!!! I highly recommend Jag - I referred both my husband and daughter to her already! :) ”

“ I have been going to the Orleans Physiotherapy for more than 10 years. They have treated my shoulder, elbow, wrist, back, knee, ankle etc, almost every part of my body! Clint is amazing, very knowledgeable and professional. My experience with Orleans Physiotherapy started with Clifton. I have also worked with Celine occasionally. I must say they are all excellent! So are all the staffs in the office. I got my husband and my son go to Orleans Physiotherapy when they needed physio treatment. Now my husband goes more often than I do. I have also recommended my friends gong there. Thank you everybody in the Orleans Physiotherapy! Highly recommended. ”

“ I have known Clifton Chari, since 2000 and he has not changed and I mean this to be a compliment. He is still the same caring and determined to help person as from the first time he had to take care of my problems. I have had many health issues that required physiotherapy due to either post ops or for curing or to prevent an operation. In 2000 he took care of my Achilles tendon after a severe operation. In 2007 he followed up after my rotator cuff operation and successfully by his dedication made that operation a success with his treatments and personal care. He is perhaps the most sincere, dedicated, caring person in the medical field. I say this from experience. I have been going to him for the past year and a half for a severe lower lumbar and leg pain. Mr. Charie put his personal attention to help me on each visit I cannot express or convey how sincere he is, he does not look at the clock and I know he gave me more time than any other Physiotherapist would. He loves a challenge and my case is so acute, the opportunity was there and he was always so resilient and did what he could in earnest. Mr. Charie also has a wonderful sense of humour and is one who would not give up in trying to help. My case is serious and because of my visits to him, I am able to put up with this problem. Only once in the last 18 years was I given a reference to try another physiotherapist in Orleans by an Urgent Care Doctor. I was naive and did not know that I did not have to go according to the urgent care referral. In some ways those two visits to the other physiotherapy establishment was a good experience as it reinforced my conviction that Clifton Charie, his team and infrastructure was the most personable and caring. They all work as a team from the reception to the assistant to Mr. Charie who has a compassionate heart. Mr. Charie you are a kindhearted care provider and I thank you for tolerating my sensitivity to pain. I would recommend this team to anyone looking for sincere help. The staff are amazing. I mean everything I said. I am grateful for the kindhearted care you always provided and for making the treatment bearable. I just wanted to express my profound gratitude to you Clifton for taking good care of me and for your patience and understanding, Mr. Charie and I apologize if I made it difficult for you. Gratitude is the fairest blossom which springs from the soul. — Henry Ward Beecher Albert Nassrallah Tuesday, September 4, 2018 ”
