At BioMechanic Physical Therapy our techniques are founded in your body’s mechanics; from when your foot hits the ground then up through your knees, hips and beyond. A common example is when over pronation in the foot causes knee pain. Maybe you just need new shoes - not a knee operation. We can help sort that out.
Our Doctors of Physical Therapy ensure that the physics of you are optimized to get to the reason of why you; 1. developed a problem that came on slowly or 2. what mechanics may have been thrown off by your injury or surgery. We use precise tools to measure, our analytical minds to solve the problem , and our hands to restore you to perfect!
We know it is important to address your symptoms now, but more importantly - to also correct the source of your pain. This makes you feel better now - and it prevents your problem from coming back.

Ma'am can this process be helpful in recovery of 5th metatarsal fracture of zone II ??

[@Biomechanicphysicaltherapy]

Hello, no I do not think I would use it for a fifth metatarsal fracture. It is using the tension of the tape across the foot from the ball the foot to the heel and I’m afraid that would put too much pressure on the metatarsal fracture. I would probably rather support the foot from the bottom using the custom molded plastic orthotic. Made from sansplint. The reason I prefer the San splint orthotic is because it can be molded very precisely to the exact shape of the bottom of your foot it’s molded directly on the foot, it’s not an orthotic made from a cast and it’s not off the shelf.

Nice. 🇵🇰💞

What do you use instead of zonas tape now? I looked for it and it seems like it’s been discontinued

[@Biomechanicphysicaltherapy]

I it looks like it’s still available on Amazon but you just want an athletic sports tape. Thanks for watching. 😘

[@yvonneb8555]

@@Biomechanicphysicaltherapy Well the closest tape I found in non-bulk quantities on Amazon was the J&J coach tape, which works but unfortunately you can’t tear it by hand. Thank you!

[@luckychucky3426]

I put tape on my feet and wrapped it up when I want to take it off they tore a half of the top of my skin off at the top so be careful when you take it off

[@Biomechanicphysicaltherapy]

Yes, It can tear up your skin, especially if you have fragile skin or tap frequently. Pro tip; fold the tape back on itself & follow with your other hand rather than pulling the tape away at a 90 degree angle.

I don’t actually close in the bottom of the foot unless I want it to be even stronger.
