🦶 Achilles heel pain stopping you in your tracks?

The Achilles tendon is the strong band of tissue connecting your calf muscles to your heel. It plays an important role when walking, running, jumping and pushing off your foot.

When the Achilles becomes irritated or overloaded, it can become painful and stiff — particularly during or after activity.

You may notice:

❌ Pain or stiffness around the back of the heel
❌ Stiffness first thing in the morning
❌ Pain when walking, running or climbing stairs
❌ Tenderness or thickening of the tendon
❌ Symptoms that worsen after exercise

Achilles tendon problems can be frustrating, particularly when they stop you doing the activities you enjoy.

At West Hallam Chiropractic, we can assess your Achilles and the factors that may be contributing to your symptoms. Treatment can include advice, exercise and rehabilitation, with shockwave therapy available where appropriate.

We use a Swiss DolorClast® shockwave machine, a market-leading system widely used in clinical research and commonly used for tendon-related conditions.

🏃 Whether you're a runner, golfer, walker or simply want to get back to being active, don't let Achilles pain keep you on the sidelines.

🦵 Cramp or Restless Leg Syndrome? — They’re not the same thing!

Do you ever get uncomfortable sensations in your legs, particularly at night? It could be a muscle cramp — but it could also be Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS).

💥 MUSCLE CRAMP

A cramp is usually a sudden, involuntary tightening of a muscle. It can be very painful and the muscle may feel hard or knotted.

Commonly:
❌ Comes on suddenly
❌ Causes strong muscle pain
❌ The muscle visibly or noticeably tightens
❌ Can occur during exercise or at night
❌ Usually lasts from seconds to several minutes

🦵 RESTLESS LEGS SYNDROME

RLS is different. It is characterised by an uncomfortable urge to move the legs, often when resting or trying to sleep.

You may experience:
❌ An irresistible urge to move your legs
❌ Crawling, tingling or uncomfortable sensations
❌ Symptoms that are worse when resting
❌ Symptoms that are worse in the evening or at night
❌ Temporary relief when moving the legs

So what's the difference in treatment?

This is important — cramp and RLS require different approaches.

At West Hallam Chiropractic, we can assess your muscles, joints and movement to help determine what may be contributing to your symptoms and provide appropriate treatment and advice where chiropractic care is suitable.

For muscle cramps, treatment may focus on the muscles, surrounding joints, movement and factors that could be contributing to the problem.

With symptoms suggestive of RLS, we can assess for musculoskeletal factors that may be contributing to discomfort, but RLS can have underlying medical causes and may require assessment by your GP or another healthcare professional.

If you're not sure whether you're experiencing cramp, restless legs, or something else, we'd be happy to assess you and advise you on the most appropriate next step.

🔹 Is lower back pain affecting your everyday life?
