- An ankle sprain from months (or years) ago that still doesn't feel right?
- Stiffness and soreness first thing in the morning when your feet hit the floor?
- Pain that flares on hikes, runs, stairs, or uneven ground?
- An ankle that rolls easily or feels weak and unstable?
- Swelling or aching after standing or walking for long periods?
- Limping or shifting your weight — and now your knee, hip, or back hurts too?
- Skipping workouts, sports, or time outdoors because you don't trust your ankle?
- Been told to just rest, ice, and wait — and it keeps coming back?
Your ankle doesn't work alone — joint alignment, your nervous system, and the way your whole body moves may be keeping it from healing.
The Threefold Approach
How Chiropractic Care Relieves Ankle Pain
Most ankle care stops at rest and ice. Specific chiropractic care restores balance to the joints of your body and to the nervous system that controls every movement you make.
Restoring Ankle Joint Motion
The small bones of the foot and ankle can lose their normal position and motion after an injury. Gentle, specific extremity adjustments help restore healthy movement so the joint can bear weight properly again.
The Whole-Body Chain
Your ankle, knee, hip, pelvis, and spine all work together. When one link is off, the others compensate. We look at the entire chain instead of just the spot that hurts.
Comprehensive Consultation & Exam
A thorough review of your health history, a physical exam, nervous system scans, and postural and gait screenings — so the plan is built on findings, not guesses.
Stability, Balance & Strength
Old sprains often leave the ankle with poor balance and weak stabilizers. Targeted exercises retrain the joint so it stays stable long after the pain calms down.

Five-Star Reviews from San Anselmo & Marin
“I came in dealing with persistent back pain, and he not only helped relieve it but also took the time to create a detailed plan for my continued improvement and overall health. He did not just treat the symptoms; he focused on long-term results.”
“I've been seeing him for a low back issue that has been bothering me since last summer. It's been 6 weeks and my back feels 97% better. He takes his time during your adjustment because he is feeling for vertebral subluxations.”
“Dr. Martin has been truly life-changing for our family. My nerve pain is gone, I sleep better, my energy has improved, and my focus is better too. Warm, welcoming, and gentle from day one.”
“He has already helped me so much with my spinal pain and posture. He's knowledgeable, kind, and takes a whole-body approach to wellness, which I really appreciate.”
“Dr. Martin has created such a wonderful space for healing on many levels. I have experienced so much more ease and ability in my body since starting care here.”
“I had years of built-up tension and could not find relief from massage, yoga, or acupuncture. Slowly, I've noticed I'm not in pain, I feel more range of motion, and I can breathe deeply again.”

Meet Your Doctor
Dr. Martin Henderson, D.C.
Dr. Martin cares for people in San Anselmo and across Marin who are living with low back pain, disc irritation, and nerve symptoms — including patients who have already tried massage, yoga, stretching, and medication without lasting relief. His approach is gentle and specific rather than forceful, and it starts with understanding how stress, tension, and compensation patterns are shaping your health.
Using a thorough consultation, physical exam, nervous system scans, and postural screenings, he locates the subluxations interrupting nerve flow — then corrects them and builds a plan with clear milestones so your body can heal, adapt, and hold the change.

Common Questions
Everything you might be wondering.
Can a Chiropractor Help With Ankle Pain?
Yes. Chiropractic care isn't only for the spine. Gentle extremity adjustments can restore motion to the joints of the ankle and foot, while spinal care addresses the compensation patterns and nervous system stress that can keep an ankle from healing.
My sprain happened a long time ago. Can you still help?
Often, yes. Old sprains commonly leave the ankle with restricted joint motion, weak stabilizers, and poor balance. We evaluate what's still off and build a plan to restore stability and movement.
Is the adjustment painful?
Ankle and foot adjustments are gentle and specific. Most patients describe them as relieving. We always explain what we're doing and adapt to your comfort level.
What happens at my first visit?
Your $119 New Patient Visit includes a consultation, a comprehensive exam including nervous system scans and postural screening, and personalized care recommendations based on what we find.
How many visits will I need?
It depends on your findings, how long the problem has been present, and your goals. After your exam we'll walk you through a clear plan with milestones so you know what to expect.
Could my ankle pain be related to my back, hips, or knees?
Absolutely. The body works as one connected chain. Hip, pelvis, and spinal imbalances can change how weight moves through your ankle — and an injured ankle can also cause pain higher up. We look at the whole picture.
