Lower Extremities
Sarasota Lower Extremity Specialist
Corrective Care for Hip, Knee, & Foot Pain
Are you sidelined by persistent shoulder, elbow, or wrist pain? At Vertical Chiropractic®, we move beyond the spine to address the biomechanical root of upper extremity dysfunction. Led by Dr. Bobby Fano, DC, MS—a world-renowned Gonstead Diplomate and Lead Instructor for Werking On Extremities—our Sarasota clinic provides the precision needed for elite recovery.
Hip Pain Chiropractor Sarasota
Hip & Pelvic Alignment
The hip is the primary engine of human movement. When the hip is restricted, the lower back and knees pay the price. We specialize in:
- Hip Joint Restriction & Femoroacetabular Impingement: Restoring proper glide and space within the joint.
- Trochanteric Bursitis: Addressing the mechanical imbalances causing lateral hip inflammation.
- Hip Flexor & Gluteal Inhibition: Utilizing specific adjustments to “re-boot” the neurological drive to your primary stabilizers.
Knee pain chiropractor Sarasota
Knee Pain & Corrective Performance
The knee is often a “victim” joint, caught between imbalances in the hip and foot. Our instructor-level care addresses:
- Osteoarthritis & Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome: Reducing joint wear through improved alignment.
- Meniscus & IT Band Syndrome: Managing the rotational stresses that lead to irritation.
- Runner’s Knee & Chondromalacia Patella: Essential for Sarasota’s active running and triathlon community.
- Pediatric Conditions: Expert care for Osgood Schlatter’s and Nursemaid’s Knee.

Sports REcovery chiropractor Sarasota
Lower Leg, Ankle, & Sports Recovery
Chronic instability leads to a cycle of re-injury. We break that cycle with:
- Shin Splints (Medial Tibial Stress Syndrome): Correcting the biomechanical strain on the lower leg.
- Chronic Ankle Instability & Sprains: Restoring the proprioceptive “map” of the ankle joint.
- Achilles Tendinopathy: Addressing the mechanical component of heel and calf pain.

- Morton’s Neuroma & Metatarsalgia: Specific adjustments to restore space between the metatarsals.
