Exercise Prescription – Frequently Asked Questions
What is Exercise Prescription?
Exercise Prescription is a personalised exercise programme created by Foot Foundation clinicians to address specific foot and ankle concerns. It is designed to improve strength, flexibility, balance, and movement as part of your recovery and long-term foot health.
Who can benefit from Exercise Prescription?
This service may help people recovering from injury, managing chronic pain, improving mobility, addressing weakness or instability, supporting post-surgical rehabilitation, or wanting better foot and ankle performance.
How is my exercise plan created?
Your Exercise Prescription begins with a comprehensive assessment to identify areas of weakness, restriction, imbalance, or poor movement control. Based on this, your clinician will create a tailored exercise plan suited to your condition and goals.
How often should I perform the exercises?
This depends on your condition and treatment goals. Many patients are asked to complete their exercises several times each week, with the programme adjusted over time as progress improves.
Do I need special equipment?
Most exercises can be completed with simple equipment such as resistance bands, small weights, or basic household items. If any specific equipment is recommended, your clinician will show you how to use it safely.
How soon will I notice results?
Many patients notice early improvement in strength, comfort, and movement within 2 to 4 weeks of consistent exercise. Long-term progress depends on regular effort and following the plan as advised.
Can Exercise Prescription be combined with other treatments?
Yes. Exercise Prescription is often combined with Manual Therapy, Soft Tissue Massage, Shockwave Therapy, Orthotic Therapy, or other rehabilitation treatments as part of a broader care plan.
Is this suitable for people with ongoing medical conditions?
In many cases, yes. Your clinician will review your medical history and adapt the exercise plan where needed to ensure it is safe and appropriate for your condition.
How much does Exercise Prescription cost?
The cost of Exercise Prescription depends on your consultation, the complexity of your treatment plan, and whether ongoing rehabilitation support is required. Pricing is explained before treatment begins, and patients can also view the podiatry price list or contact reception for more information.
