Understanding overpronation and supination, and how we help in Cookeville.
Looking for help with overpronation and supination in Cookeville? Our Cookeville clinic at 120 Walnut Commons Lane, Suite A offers exams, treatment, and follow up close to home.
Pronation is the normal inward roll of the foot as you step. Overpronation means the foot rolls in too far. Supination, or underpronation, means the foot rolls too little and stays on the outer edge.
Both can change how force travels through your feet and legs. Runners and active people often notice them first.

Diagnosis and care
How we treat overpronation and supination in Cookeville.
Step 1 · Diagnosis
We watch how your foot lands and pushes off while you stand and walk. We look at your shoes for wear patterns. X-rays are used if we suspect a bone problem behind the pain.
Step 2 · Treatment
Shoes matched to your foot type make a large difference. Custom orthotics guide the foot toward a steadier motion. Calf stretches and foot strengthening build support, and physical therapy can help with running form. Ice and rest calm overworked tissues.
Surgery is rarely needed for pronation problems. It is only considered when a structural issue such as a collapsing arch is causing steady pain.
