Whole-body evaluation that addresses the source of your foot pain, not just where it hurts
Clayton has helped me more than I ever imagined with a pinched nerve in my neck and shoulder. The pain was unbearable for half of my life. I wasn't able to fully live and enjoy the things I loved to do. After just the first session I had more relief than I have ever had in all the years of doctor visits and hospital visits. I am back to do everything I was able to when I was a kid. Truly works wonders.

We start with a thorough assessment of your foot, ankle, and whole-body mechanics to identify exactly what's causing your pain.

Using advanced techniques like joint mobilization, soft tissue work, and myofascial release, we restore function and reduce pain.

We teach you exercises and strategies to keep the pain from coming back, so you can return to the activities you love.

Whether you're dealing with plantar fasciitis, ankle instability, or chronic foot pain, our manual therapy approach targets the underlying dysfunction to deliver lasting results.

"I have been dealing with chronic pain and numbness for a few years and have felt my body get weaker as I have aged. After a couple sessions I noticed that my body had become stronger with pain less often. Maverick Manual Therapy focused on my body structure and functionality before just jumping in on exercises. I see light at the end of the tunnel."
"If you have been on the fence about calling Maverick Manual Therapy & Performance, please do so now. He truly helped me. I went in with hip and lower back pain but shortly realized it was also neck and rib issues he could help with as well. He not only helped in those areas but also taught me ways to support my every day life so these issues wouldn't come back!"
"Clayton's approach to therapy was completely different than other PT I have tried. The whole session is one on one care which I never received at pt clinics I went to as they have multiple patients in at once. My pain is completely gone and I am so much stronger and know how to use my body more efficiently."

Everything you need to know about foot pain manual therapy
Manual therapy is a hands-on approach that uses techniques like joint mobilization, soft tissue mobilization, myofascial release, and trigger point therapy to address the root cause of your foot pain. Unlike traditional approaches that focus only on symptoms, we evaluate your entire body to find what's causing your pain—whether it's plantar fasciitis, ankle instability, or compensation patterns from other areas. Our Board-Certified Orthopedic Clinical Specialist uses advanced manual therapy techniques to restore function, reduce inflammation, and get you back to the activities you love.
Unlike traditional PT clinics where you might see multiple patients at once, we provide full one-on-one care for your entire session—no waiting rooms, no assembly-line treatment. Dr. Clayton Labus is a Board-Certified Orthopedic Clinical Specialist, a distinction held by less than 10% of physical therapists in the country. We're independently minded and out-of-network, which allows us to spend more time with each patient and focus on root-cause treatment rather than just symptom management. Most patients see faster recovery with fewer total appointments.
We treat a wide range of foot and ankle conditions including plantar fasciitis, heel pain, Achilles tendinopathy, ankle sprains and instability, chronic foot pain, and overuse injuries. Our whole-body evaluation approach means we also address related issues like knee pain, hip dysfunction, and lower back problems that may be contributing to your foot pain.
Each appointment is a full one-on-one session focused entirely on your care. The number of sessions varies based on your specific condition and goals, but our root-cause focused approach typically results in faster recovery with fewer total appointments than traditional physical therapy. During your initial evaluation, we'll create a personalized treatment plan and give you a clear timeline for your recovery.
We are an out-of-network provider, which allows us to spend more time with each patient and provide truly personalized care without insurance restrictions. Many patients find that the quality of care and faster recovery time make this investment worthwhile. We can provide documentation for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement. Call (830) 429-4848 to discuss your specific situation and payment options.
We're located at 312 Melrose Pl in San Antonio, just 10 minutes from downtown near Alamo Quarry Market and Quarry Village in the Alamo Heights area.
