Word of the Week: Talus!

The talus may be small, but it’s a powerhouse for movement and stability. Its is one of the 26 different bones in the foot.
Unlike most bones, it has no muscular attachments—it relies entirely on ligaments and joint surfaces for support. That makes it incredibly mobile, but also vulnerable.

From an osteopathic/chiropractic perspective, the talus is central in linking the foot, ankle, knee, and pelvis through the kinetic chain:

·        Weight transfer – it carries load from the tibia into the calcaneus and forefoot

·        Joint hub – it forms the ankle joint (talocrural), the subtalar joint, and part of the midfoot articulation

·        Balance and proprioception – tiny shifts in the talus affect posture and stability

·        Clinical link – restrictions here (often after ankle sprains) can alter gait mechanics, contribute to knee/hip overload, and even show up as low back discomfort

If you’ve had recurrent ankle pain, restoring movement and mobility can improve both local ankle function and whole-body balance.

Give us a call on 0423107972 to book an appointment today to see how we can help!
