Arch Pain at Foot and Ankle Rehabilitation

The arch of the foot plays a vital role in shock absorption, stability, and efficient walking mechanics. When the arch is too low, too high, or structurally unstable, it can lead to pain, poor biomechanics, and increased risk of injury.

Arch pain may arise from flat feet, high arches, plantar fasciitis, or accessory navicular syndrome. At Foot and Ankle Rehabilitation, our podiatrists and physiotherapists provide specialist diagnosis and evidence-based treatment to restore function and reduce pain.

Common Causes of Arch Pain

  • Flat Feet (Pes Planus): the arch collapses, leading to excessive pronation and strain on the foot and ankle

  • High Arches (Pes Cavus): the arch is excessively raised, causing poor shock absorption and forefoot/heel overload

  • Plantar Fasciitis: inflammation and degeneration of the fascia supporting the arch (see Heel Conditions)

  • Accessory Navicular Syndrome: an extra bone in the arch causing pain and tendon irritation
