Resolve complex plantar heel pain.
As a caring Allied Health Practitioner who treats plantar heel pain with manual therapy and exercise, I know you want to make sure your client has resolved their problem for good, so they can get back to what they love doing.
What happens if, despite your best efforts, your clients plantar heel pain doesn’t respond as you expected? You’ve tried everything you can think of, but their pain persists!
This situation can be frustrating for you and your client. The client might be feeling anxious and depressed about the impact this injury is having on their life and well-being.
You might be wondering how to solve this challenging problem and feel stuck or confused. You might ask yourself “What do I do next?” or “What am I missing?”, that would enable you to overcome the roadblocks to your client’s recovery.
If only you could solve this problem your job satisfaction and reputation will get a huge boost, and you’ll create grateful raving fans who’ll tell their friends and family about how you helped them resolve their plantar heel pain.
Imagine having a program that:
- Could help you find what’s missing and how to manage it.
- Provides a systematic process to help you discover the many anatomical sources of symptoms that could make a difference to the outcome and may co-exist
- Helps you discover the how and why of the injury, which is unique to the individual.
Many practitioners make 3 key mistakes with their clients suffering plantar heel pain:
- Their assumptions get in the way of their thinking, assuming the plantar fascia is the primary tissue affected, and provide a “recipe approach”
- They don’t assess foot mobility
- They don’t look for contributing factors outside the foot
I’ve been helping clients resolve their chronic plantar heel pain for many years who’d been misdiagnosed as “plantar fasciitis”, and I’m still learning!
Learning what I needed to think, ask, assess, and do differently to help these clients resolve their plantar heel pain, forms the basis of this comprehensive and innovative course.

Hi I’m Robyn Gant and I’m passionate about sharing my special expertise in treating foot and ankle injuries, to help you resolve even the most complex problems.
Because the foot doesn’t work in isolation, I’ve created an innovative and integrative approach to solve complex foot and ankle injuries. My problem-solving approach will help you unlock the mysteries of the foot and ankle and link its function with the rest of the body, so you can overcome the roadblocks to your client’s recovery.
Since completing my Master’s Degree researching foot and ankle movement, I’ve spoken at conferences, taught clinical workshops to Physiotherapists and Podiatrists, and mentored my staff. My approach has continued to evolve, so you can benefit from my extensive knowledge, insights and wisdom.
I would love to share my discoveries with you, and support you on your journey so you can fast track your success and transform your results with foot & ankle manual therapy.

Understanding that plantar heel pain can have multiple sources of pain which should all be treated differently has changed my assessment of plantar heel pain. The detailed anatomical information, anatomy and assessment has helped me understand in the different symptoms and management needed for a successful outcome. This course should be recommended due to the amount of detail that is provided in each section. It builds a comprehensive understanding of plantar heel pain that isn’t provided in university.
Recognising there are many sources of symptoms in plantar heel pain helped me achieve more structure in my assessment and treatment options to connect the dots together. The Q&A sessions were great and well-spaced throughout the course. With this structure I can feel more relaxed that I can provide a thorough assessment both in and outside the foot. I hope that this training will be followed by practitioners all over the world.

Robyn’s checklist and troubleshooting guide are incredible tools for unpacking the confusion around what structures are implicated in the production plantar heel pain. I found that identifying and releasing a locked lateral column incredibly useful. The more long-standing cases of intractable pain were able to be resolved by using the logical structure of Robyn’s assessment and treatment. This course doesn’t go for quick fixes, but interrogates the causes of pain, and provides logically determined and easily applied treatments to solve issues. I now have more confidence to diagnose the problem.
