 |
However, there are many other possible reasons the heel can hurt, each with its own subtleties. |

Mark's exceptionable skill, insight and sensitivity make him a true healer. Because of pain from a long-ago spinal fusion, I have received Physical Therapy from many hands. Mark's are the best! His manual therapy has given me a pain-free back, he taught me what I needed to know in order to take care of myself, and his exercises actually work so I do them.
I've found that the Wellness Center's Saturday morning yoga class, taught by Mark, enhances the benefits of Physical Therapy. — G.H., Palo Alto
The bike fit / efficiency evaluation from Dan was awesome. I learned a lot and it revealed my hips are slightly out of alignment. I had some tight muscles that were causing me to sit crooked on the saddle, which in turn caused my right knee to flair out a little. Dan showed me some stretches that should alleviate this problem. — Joe Campi, Endurance Cyclist
Curtis’s knowledge and directed exercises helped me become more efficient and more comfortable on my bike. I was able to correct a long-standing crooked sitting position and unbalanced pedal stroke. I recommend him to my elite cycling friends as well as my most challenging athletic, injured patients in my rheumatology practice.
— Christine Thorburn, M.D., 2x Cycling Olympian
