Ankle/Foot Pain
How to Erase Ankle/Foot Pain and Stiffness – Without Having to Wait to See the Doctor, Without Taking Painkillers, Without Getting Painful Shots and Without Risking Dangerous Surgery.
If you're suffering with Ankle/Foot Pain - it's easy to think that it's really nothing, and it will go away on its own. Sadly and frustratingly, this is usually never the case. Or worse, you assume that it’s an age issue, and “everyone” your age has Ankle/Foot Pain which is just “something you have to deal with” now.
There may be no obvious reason why it happened - but it doesn't seem to be getting any better!
If Ankle/Foot Pain is something that is happening to you, know that YOU’RE NOT ALONE. We hear about Ankle/Foot Pain all the time! As a matter of fact, Ankle/Foot Pain is one of THE most common problems that we see at PRO Therapy.
When it comes to dealing with the issue of Ankle/Foot Pain, everyone we see wants to know:
"Why is This Happening to me?"
or
"Why Am I STILL Suffering With This Ankle/Foot Pain After Having It For Months?"
Most people think that when they’re suffering with Ankle/Foot Pain, it will magically go away on its own.
They think that they’ll wake up one morning and like “magic” it’ll be as if the Ankle/Foot Pain never happened. But in reality, 4-6 months later still dealing with that same Ankle/Foot Pain, and many times it's even worse than when it started!
Does That Sound Familiar?
Another scenario we see in our physical therapy clinics is that someone visits their Doctor's office, the Doctor suggests to rest for a while, writes a prescription for painkillers, and says to "come back if it's not better in 6 weeks."
Fast forward 6 weeks, and they’re back in the Doctor's office, usually with increased Ankle/Foot Pain. The Doctor simply recommends a stronger dosage of pain pills and more rest. This is madness and explains why most people just end up "living with" their Ankle/Foot Pain.
Have You Ever Experienced Something Like This?
Why else does Ankle/Foot Pain last longer than it needs to? Well, it's easy to get confused because there's always someone who has done one thing or another, and they’re happy to offer different suggestions to help your Ankle/Foot Pain go away.
So many people are telling you so many different things, and you end up not knowing which way is up. There are many people willing to give their “helpful tips,” but not all of it is accurate or wise.
Maybe you think that your Ankle/Foot Pain was caused by doing something - like walking more than usual or wearing a new pair of shoes - but in reality, it’s more likely caused from years of not having proper support for your Ankle/Foot, possibly having uneven alignment in your legs or some other factor(s). Pain from additional walking or wearing new shoes was just the EFFECT.
If you're not an Ankle/Foot Pain expert, it can be tough to navigate and can often get confusing. That's the reason so many people just accept their Ankle/Foot Pain as a way of life, like it's reasonable to be in pain, “it’s normal,” and it's “just the way it is.”

I worked with Ben and Trent at Pro Therapy for the last three months on a hip injury I acquired through olympic weightlifting. These guys helped me regain full range of motion in my lifts, got rid of my pain, and even helped strengthen a lot of my other weaknesses! They had a solid, well thought-out plan for me and my sessions with them were engaging and effective. The exercises they gave me to do at home were actually fun (I know we're all guilty of not doing our PT exercises at home - but these I will keep with me for a long time!) I really enjoyed working with Ben and Trent and I'd 100% recommend these guys to anyone who is looking for organized, fun, and effective physical therapy.

I worked with Dr. Ben Schacht to resolve some severe knee pain I was getting while running. From our first visit, Ben did a great job understanding what limitations my injury was causing, diagnosing the root cause of the pain, and developing a treatment plan. My experience at Pro Therapy was very positive and I'm confident I have a good plan to prevent future issues with my knee moving forward.

I came in with a shoulder problem that had been causing me pain for 3-4 months. It hurt to yawn, sleep on my side, push downwards (like a tricep dip) and had completely disrupted my physical activity since it hurt to do almost anything. Dr. Ben was very thorough in trying to find the root of the problem and once he was confident, he game me many different exercises to do each week. he would change them up every week depending on how much pain I had been feeling and when those symptoms arose. Partway through, I asked for his advice with what I thought was a hamstring injury. After about a week of treating that, he realized that it was actually my sciatic nerve causing pain to shoot down throughout my entire leg. I had no knowledge about the sciatic nerve or what would make it hurt, so He explained his thought process in words that I could understand, and gave me reasons for assigning every single exercise he assigned me. Once we changed up that routine, I noticed results immeditately.Long Story short - Dr. Ben is incredibly thorough and explains his reasons behind everything he does during treatment so that the patient can understand. Everyone at PRO therapy is wonderful to talk and i highly recommend going there if you are in need of physical therapy.

The best choice I made!.. I had initially gone to a different physical therapist connected with Mhealth after 2 visits I was unhappy with the service I received, decided to check out Pro-therapy.Pro-Therapy was exactly what I needed. I mainly worked with Dr.Ben, who was amazing at focusing on the problem, personalizing a therapy program. A program to achieve goals that were important to me. I would highly recommend Pro-Therapy!

At Pro Therapy, they strongly focus on your wellbeing and your journey to recovery. Dr. Spahr is incredibly knowledgeable and attentive, providing in-depth, targeted, and safe treatment methods that will get you back to your daily routine. Of all the physical therapy options I've required over the years of being an athlete, Pro Therapy stands above and beyond the best place I can recommend.

I was very impressed with the care I received at Pro Therapy for a shoulder injury. I saw steady progress and understood clearly what I needed to do to recover. My therapist, Ben, was friendly and encouraging, and he explained what was wrong and how we were going to fix it.I'm very happy with my experience and would gladly recommend checking them out.

I came to Pro Therapy due to a back injury. I worked with Dr. Trent for about 2 months. He was always a joy to be around. We started off doing very simple stretches and slowly upped the intensity of the workouts during each session. During our exercises he was able to really understand what I could and could not do. Always encouraging throughout the workout. Thanks Dr. Trent and the Pro Therapy Team.

I came in with severe back pain. As a young adult, I figured my pain was beyond repair by a physical therapist. However, that was before I had the privilege of working with Dr. Trent and Dr. Ben. My pain was diagnosed within minutes of the first visit(I figured they just wanted to get me in for another visit) so I kindly played along. But after visit 2, things started to change. I was already becoming mobile again. I went from not being able to lift my arm above my head to almost doing it after visit 3. These guys know their stuff and put me in a position to continue my labor job over 50+ hours a week with no pain. They’re the nicest men, and enjoyable to work with. I even once missed an appointment and they responded in a way that put no guilt on me. Couldn’t recommend Pro Therapy enough. Wish I could go back even though I’mHealthy now!

Dr. Trent was great. He helped me with appropriate exercises that helped the pain to subside. I believe that if I keep doing the exercises he showed me and daily exercise I can keep the pain level down. I will certainly call if the pain returns.Thank you, Dr. TrentMary Julik

I am very pleased with my time at PRO therapy! I have had chronic back pain for many years now and have tried many different physical therapy clinics, but none of them seemed to help. I finally tried PRO therapy, and I am so happy I did. Dr. Trent was by far the best physical therapist I have ever had. Dr. Trent was very friendly and everything he was doing for my back definitely worked. I would highly recommend Dr. Trent and PRO therapy to anyone looking to be pain free!

Ben at Pro therapy has been amazing and has helped me recover from lower back pain and sciatica...Initially I was not able to some simple day to day activities but after physical therapy with Ben, I have been feeling much better and can now do things I enjoy such as running and playing sports. I recommended this place 10/10.

I have had exceptional service at PRO Therapy, from the caring and highly responsive office staff to the skilled and empathetic care by my physical therapist. Dr. Ben has taken the time to really listen to my concerns, discover the ways that my life is impacted by my injuries, and provide education about my therapy plan. He has given me the information that I need to understand how each step and each exercise is getting me closer to my goals. I feel encouraged, supported, and respected in every session.I’m so grateful to have found PRO Therapy!

I came to Pro Therapy after having low back pain for several months that was really limiting my daily activities and self care. I had been going to Physical Therapy at a different location for several weeks and felt that I was just being given the playbook stretches and strengthening exercises for low back pain and was not making any significant progress. Thankfully a co-worker of mine recommended Pro Therapy. Ben Schacht has been an incredible Physical Therapist! He truly listens and ask questions to understand my situation as much as possible every time I am there to see him. His recommendations felt very specific to the pain that I was experiencing. I started making progress after seeing Ben right away and have continued to improve! I have gone from barely/painfully being able to put my shoes, having trouble riding in a car, etc. to being able to not only do those regular daily routines, but to also be able to get back to exercising with kettlebells and many other physically active hobbies I enjoy. I truly can not thank Ben enough! He has helped improve my quality of life immensely!

This is a great place for physical therapy! The Doctors there are awesome and they really listen to and care for the client. I would highly recommend it. During each session I was always asked about having any pain& Dr.Trent showed me how to do workout exercises there and at home. They also have evening sessions available.

I had back surgery and was looking for a therapist that was knowledgeable on what I needed for recovery. Pro-Therapy was the perfect choice. Dr. Ben was able to show me exercises to do for strengthening and manage the surgery pain so that I could recover quickly. I am still on the mend but his help has made me stronger every day! I felt welcome from the first call I made to the last visit. Thank you to the whole staff!!

Dr. Trent was great and really helped with my heel/Achilles tendon. Caring, supportive, kind, and easy going. Adapted to help me with what I wanted to work on (running, squatting). Gave me the confidence to work on loading and exercising the injured tendons without fear of re-injuring them.

I was nervous to do physical therapy, and hadn't done any type of PT since I tore my ACL in high school. I always thought PT was reserved for after a major injury or for surgery rehab, but I had enough pain to seek out some PT and PRO Therapy was the place that stood out most. Working with Linda (the friendliest person ever!) to get all set up, then meeting Dr. Spahr and his team put me at ease right away - I actually enjoyed going to my appointments knowing that I would be working with friendly, knowledgeable, and caring doctors who wanted me to get better first and foremost.Dr. Spahr and his team treat you like family, and are focused on treating root problems and not just using quick-fix techniques. They take time to listen to you, adjust treatments based on where you're at, and make recommendations that make sense. I was always told that whatever I was comfortable with, and whatever I needed would be the priority. I couldn't have asked for a better PT experience.I will certainly be back whenever I need to get my body right. They are the best!

Dr. Ben Schacht has helped me do things I honestly didn't think would be possible. I was in a car accident in 2008 that caused some cervical spine injuries that were largely untreated. I never exercised but, in 2012, that changed. I built myself up over several years, but a subluxated atlas caused nerve compression on my left side and it remained underdeveloped although I had added 20+ lbs of muscle. I saw a chiropractor who helped me get the acute pain down to a manageable level, but it wasn't until I started seeing Dr. Schacht that I learned how to use these muscles again. I went in to see him about hip pain which subsided in about 3 weeks of work with him. Slowly I regained mobility and eventually we moved on to other imbalances in my shoulder from a previous dislocation and pain in my neck from the accident. Working with Dr. Schacht got me back into fighting form for my martial art and has restored my confidence. My pain is almost completely gone now! Dr. Schacht helped me set and exceed realistic expectations and I cannot stress how much my life has changed from workouts to even sleep quality. 10/10 would recommend.

These guys are great. They listened, made a proactive plan, gave me home exercizes and stretches printed out and on an easy app, and were so nice. Great hours for me too, since I work until 5pm everyday. I feel so much better and feeling confident I have the know-how and tools they taught me to stay out of back/ neck pain from my job. But I can always see them for a treatment if needed in a pinch! Both Docs are so kind. Low pressure, actual results. Very knowledgable, just wish I found them sooner. You get one on one time in a great facility. Free parking too 🙂

I have had excellent care for trigger thumbs at Pro therapy. It began when I called Linda to schedule an appointment and work through insurance coverage. She always brightened my day. Dr. Kevin Spahr is a very knowledgeable PT. He has a wide range of treatment options to promote healing. One of my favorite things about Kevin is the importance he places on listening to patients. He takes this input seriously and uses it to help structure his treatment path. I highly recommend Pro Therapy as a very patient centered place to seek treatment.

Working with Dr. Spahr has been so great! I had been having neck / upper-back pain on and off for over a year and I thought it was finally time to seek help. From the first appointment I felt so welcomed at PRO Therapy and Dr. Spahr does an excellent job at communicating with his patients in order to find a physical therapy plan that will work best for their needs and lifestyle. I definitely recommend Dr. Spahr and Dr. Schacht to anyone in need of physical therapy, you won't regret it!

I had never been to physical therapy before going to ProTherapy. I did a quick google search and found that they had amazing reviews and decided to try it out after a shoulder injury. Dr. Ben was incredible! He listened extremely well, and created a plan to get me back to normal that was appropriate for my injury! I had a fantastic experience and highly suggest Pro Therapy Northeast if you are in need of physical therapy for any reason!

Last year, I had surgery for one of the worst frozen shoulders my orthopedist had ever seen. I completed about 8 months of PT in February with a different PT. This summer, my shoulder started to regress and I became very concerned about it! I was referred to Dr. Schact and am so grateful!Over the years, I have seen multiple PTs for knee and shoulder related injuries. Dr. Schact looked at my most recent shoulder surgery recovery in a completely different way than both of my previous therapists. I'm so grateful for the progress he helped me make and how I'm back to doing the fun things in life I couldn't do last year!My only regret is that I didn't know to go see him last year when my shoulder started freezing up. He really is the best and I can't recommend him highly enough!

I highly recommend going to ProTherapy if you need Physical Therapy. Ben and Kevin helped me after 2 surgeries and 2 injuries. They not only helped me with rehab to get me back on my feet, but they also taught me preventative measures so I didn't run into issues in the future. They also helped my teenage daughter with some knee pain from sports, and worked with her to change her stance so she didn't get injured while playing her favorite sport. 5 stars from me - they're great people, and extraordinarily knowledgeable!

My experience at PRO Therapy was so positive. I worked with Dr. Schacht and he was extremely helpful as I rehabilitated my shoulder. In the past I have gone to physical therapy offices where there are many patients all at once and you are mostly working independently, however at PRO therapy you are the only patient there and receive individualized attention and treatment your whole appointment. Dr. Schacht individualized my treatment, and varied it in a way that made sense for my progress.Also, the PRO Therapy receptionist Linda is incredibly kind and helpful and has helped me figure out some major insurance referral issues. The whole staff is patient and dedicate to their patients and I can't recommend them and their practices enough!

Ben is an absolutely amazing Physical therapist!!!! I was really happy with my sessions and he always encouraged me to do the workouts i could do and even made sure i wasn't making things worse for my back when i would have done so. He is also just a really good listener! I'll definitely go back if i need more PT! (sorry this is so late ben!)

I chose PRO Therapy after a car accident I had in the fall mainly because it was a convenient location. And I am glad I did. The NE location is very convenient and comfortable with easy parking and lots of coffee shops around. I mainly worked with Ben but the whole team was always flexible and willing to work with my travel schedule, etc. to ensure I didn't fall behind. My goal was to ensure that I would get back my fine motor skills and range of motion in my injured arm/wrist. Both Ben and Kevin took the time to listen to my concerns and goals upfront as well as through the process to ensure I was comfortable and consistently making progress. Ben really went above and beyond to make sure that I was able to get back to my normal workout routine. And just recently, after a bit of a billing mistake, Linda and Kevin worked it out to make sure that I wasn't paying late fees- which I really appreciate! All in all, I'm super happy that I chose to work with the PRO Therapy team and have already recommended them to three of my coworkers.

I have had to seek out physical therapy several times in the past. I decided to go to PRO Therapy because of the many 5 star ratings it has received.And now I know why they are rated so highly. NEVER have I received such in depth care! From the extensive history taken, to the details like Ben the PT taking notes while we interact during the exercise sessions, I was completely surprised how much individual care I received!I had a meniscal tear and when I told my physician I intended to try physical therapy before starting steroid injections, he was supportive but skeptical.I AM NOW COMPLETELY PAIN FREE. So no injections for the foreseeable future. (A very good thing!)If I ever need PT again, I won’t hesitate to visit Ben at the Northeast location. I heartily recommend them!

PRO Therapy exceeds all expectations! Ben has a great demeanor and listened to my concerns when he put together my care plan. and his innovative techniques are refreshing Linda, the scheduler is very friendly and works hard to get me the appointments that work with my schedule. I recommend PRO Therapy to anyone who wants or needs physical therapy in all stages of injury.

I highly recommend Dr Benjamin Schacht. In the past when I had physical therapy the doctor assessed me once and the beginning of my treatment and left it to aides to work with me on exercises. That isn't the case with Dr. Schacht. He has worked with me one on one, not only adding exercises slowly as I've progressed, but also physically manipulating my knee and leg to ease swelling and pain. He is thorough, listens well, and is a pleasure to work with.

Both Dr. Ben and Dr. Kevin listened closely when I described my pain and were very driven to heal my achilles tendonitis. I was discharged after getting to about 90% of healing. I have days where my achilles feels close to normal and I think that I'll be able to get back to my achilles baseline with the home exercises that I was given. Both doctors use unique, hands-on treatment modalities, including Graston tools, that brought great relief to my chronic pain. I would absolutely go back to their clinic if need be.

Wonderful experience with Dr Ben following a car accident. He is extremely personable and professional and creates an open and trusting environment. He pays close attention to detail and is comprehensive in his evaluation and care. He was also willing to reach out to other professionals to support my concussion recovery. Best experience I’ve had with a physical therapist. Highly recommend! Also! Scheduling was a breeze with Linda - saved me time and headaches. Much appreciated! - Mariel

These guys are great! Been to many different places for PT due to a shoulder injury. Pro therapy is by far the best. Very hands on, demonstrating the movements and exercises before releasing you on your own. I never felt rushed and Ben answered all my questions. They have all the newest equipment and tools for whatever your PT needs may be. Highly recommend!

Dr. Ben Schacht was an excellent PT. He helped me recover my ITB syndrome after the Twin Cities Marathon, as well as provided me exercises to work on preventing future injuries. Therapy included exercises, stretching, dry needling, cupping, and soft tissue massage. Would recommend anyone searching for a PT to reach out to Ben!

I've seen Dr. Kevin Spahr for two separate issues. Due to my first experience I opted to have my PT at Protherapy in Coon Rapids after a total replacement of my right knee. His care is top notch. He is dedicated to getting you the best results by tailoring the therapies he uses to your specific needs and is a very caring health professional. I felt very comfortable that my issues were addressed and met. There is nothing cookie cutter about the care received! Thank you Dr. Spahr!

I had the pleasure of working with Dr. Ben Schacht. After I began to see progress in my injury, coming here was a highlight of my week. Even though I was coming from gymnastics/bodybuilding background, Ben introduced me to so many beneficial exercises and techniques to improve my injury and maintain it for the future. I learned a lot of tips that I am able to implement into my workouts. He created a very comfortable environment and am very grateful for his help. Highly recommend!

PRO Therapy has been by far my best physical therapy experience to date, and I will go back in the future if needed. Dr. Ben did a great job listening to my symptoms and goals for recovery. After a few weeks of treatment I was able to run my marathon as planned and without pain! That wouldn't have been possible without Dr. Ben and the PRO Therapy team.

I worked with Dr Ben Schacht after a partial knee replacement surgery. I would give Dr Ben extra points if I could and here is why:He is an excellent physical therapist. Ben Listens to my needs. He plans his therapies with a person centered goal. Ben explains every detail of his sessions and he is very knowledgeable of what he does. I tend to ask too many questions and Ben has been patient, humble, positive, caring and helped me set realistic goals. His supportive and compassionate nature helped me through the healing process. I also like his flexibility. I never once felt under pressure to do anything I did not want to do. This just shows the values and integrity of Pro therapy. I will definitely continue to work with Pro-therapy for any nature of physical therapy in the future. Thanks for letting trust in physical therapy again.

I had the pleasure of working both with Kevin and Ben at different stages of my recovery. As an athlete, I understand that sport related injuries take time, dedication and good care. During the first stage of my treatment, Kevin helped me alleviate the pain, recover mobility and rebuild the scaring tissue with Gaston, dry needling, thermal contrasts and stretching exercises. For the second stage, I worked with Ben with the groundwork Kevin laid while strengthening the surrounding muscles. He understood that at that stage, I wasn’t ready to load the surrounding tissue with high intensity, so we worked with a new rehabilitation technique called Blood Flow Restriction (BFR). With it, we were able to rebuild the strength of the injured tissue with low weight, which proved to be a successful therapy as it shortened my recovery time. I fully recommend their practice and would suggest it to anyone in a similar situation.

If you’re looking for a PT, ProTherapy is the place to go! 4 weeks before the TC Marathon I began to have bilateral Achilles pain that brought me to my knees. I could barely walk let alone run. I decided to make an appointment with Dr. Kevin Spahr at the Coon Rapids location. Our goal was to get me to the starting line.. I saw him twice a week for 3 weeks before the race, and at our last session I was amazed at how great they felt. I am happy to say that not only did I make it to the starting line, I made it to the finish line too!! With NO pain whatsoever. Dr. Spahr is simply the best. He listened to my concerns, my goals and ultimately is a big part of how I finished. If you’re looking for a PT, I can’t recommend ProTherapy enough.

I worked with Dr. Ben Schacht. He worked with me on an issue with my foot and also my knees. He did a top notch job and designed a personalized physical therapy plan for me that worked great. Dr. Schacht also provided hands on therapy to the area which aided in my recovery even more. I could tell he truly wanted me to feel better and be able to live my life pain free once again. I give PRO Therapy a strong 5/5 and will be using them again should any more issues arise.

Dr Spahr made a huge difference in my neck and back pain, after struggling for 4 years after an MVA. He gave me a free 45 min phone consult as I gathered information about his program. I started with him with confidence that he could help me. What makes him different is his hands on therapy using many techniques such as graston, cupping, long needling, electro-stim, and kinesiology tape. He was always very kind, caring and professional! I would highly recommend him! KW

Kevin was always friendly. He communicated clearly about my plan, current and future expectations for treatment success, and what I needed to do to promote my own recovery. I have referred others to him and would see him again for treatment.

After injuring my back at work, I had constant, debilitating pain in my low back and leg. I sought help from Dr. Kevin Spahr at Pro Therapy and it was one of the best decisions I have made. Dr. Spahr is not like other physical therapists, who see you for 15 minutes, show you some exercises, and send you on your way. Dr. Spahr is patient, takes his time with you, listens to your concerns, and is extremely knowledgable and passionate about his work and truly cares about your well being. Dr. Spahr has helped me decrease my pain and improve my quality of life. I am happy to recommend Dr. Spahr to anyone and everyone because he truly is the best.

I have been having an issue for about three years and have tried a few different treatments. I was referred to Kevin by another therapist. Kevin was able to analyze my problem and has put together a treatment program that has been very successful. I've been seeing Kevin for a couple months now and he has been able to take care of the problems I was having. I highly recommend his services.

I have nothing but good things to say about my PT with Dr. Kevin Spahr. As a patient who suffers from Fibromyalgia and other muscle pain at times, this by far was the best PT I have ever had. The new techniques Dr. Spahr used were so helpful and the simple yet very important changes to how I perform everyday tasks were so helpful with daily living..I would refer anyone who is suffering and in need of some meaningful Physical Therapy to give Dr. Spahr at Pro Therapy a chance. It may be the best thing you have ever done for yourself.

I had knee replacement surgery and I heard about Protherapy from a high school friend on Facebook who works with Dr Spahr and recommended him for PT. I had some therapy appointments already set up after leaving the hospital with the local clinic but decided to give Dr Spahr a call. At the appointment, we talked about my surgery, my history with previous knee surgeries and therapies, what my Orthopedist said and my expectations. I cancelled the other clinic appts and continued with Dr Spahr. He listened to my questions and concerns and explained each exercise and treatment as to what it was doing for me. I had some complications from the knee surgery and Dr Spahr made adjustments to my therapy specific to my needs. His 2 locations made it very easy to fit therapy appointments into my schedule and I was able to complete my all my recommended sessions I highly recommend Dr Spahr, my new knee is fully functional and there is no painAmanda K

I was experiencing chronic pain that had compromised my lifestyle. I made an appointment with Dr. Spahr and after an initial consultation and some simple exercises Dr. Spahr pinpointed the problem. Some simple therapy was performed which included Graston and taping along with a program to do some home stretching and the results have been very good. Dr. Spahr is very professional, extremely well educated and with the current services provided at The Clinic and Gym completes the vision that Dr. Harrison envisioned years ago. I strongly urge you to meet with Dr. Spahr for all your physical therapy needs.
