Plantar Fasciitis

The first step of the morning that stops you cold.

Inflammation of the thick band of tissue running across the bottom of your foot. Characteristically sharp heel pain with first steps, easing mid-day before returning after prolonged standing.

Most plantar fasciitis is a loading problem, not a rest problem. We teach the foot to absorb force again.

I spent four years studying gait biomechanics because the foot is the first conversation between your body and the ground. When that conversation breaks down, everything above it compensates.

Rotator Cuff Tear

The overhead reach that became a negotiation.

Partial or full-thickness tears of the supraspinatus, infraspinatus, teres minor, or subscapularis tendons. Presents as aching shoulder pain with weakness, especially when lifting the arm above shoulder height.

Shoulder & Upper Extremity

Surgery is often the last chapter, not the first. I've seen full tears resolve beautifully with the right progressive loading protocol.

The shoulder is the most mobile joint in the body — and mobility without stability is just instability. My work is always about rebuilding that balance, not just eliminating pain.

Lumbar Disc Herniation

When the pain has a zip code down your leg.

Displacement of nucleus pulposus material through the annulus fibrosus, often compressing adjacent nerve roots. Produces classic dermatomal leg pain (sciatica), numbness, and in severe cases, weakness in the foot.

Dr. Priya Krishnamurthy — Spine & Neurodynamics

Dr. Priya Krishnamurthy

Spine & Neurodynamics

The disc is not the enemy. Disc herniations resorb spontaneously in 66% of cases. The question is: what does your nervous system need to calm down?

I completed my PhD on neurodynamic tension testing because I believe back pain is misunderstood at a systems level. The spine is a highway, and we need to look at every on-ramp.

IT Band Syndrome

The lateral knee fire that appears at mile 8.

Compression of the iliotibial band against the lateral femoral epicondyle. Affects runners with characteristic sharp lateral knee pain that appears predictably at a specific mileage and forces a walk.

Running Medicine & Knee

IT band syndrome is a hip problem wearing a knee costume. I always start 15 centimeters north of where it hurts.

I ran collegiately and then blew out my own IT band. That experience taught me that runners don't need to stop — they need to understand why their hip abductors are on vacation.
