Hopefully the cycling PT you'll be seeing next will immediately home in on your internally rotated femur and the torsion at your tibia, and get right to work pulling your subtalar joint back into line.
That could mean some juicy posting at the foot (and a cycling PT will know to post cycling shoes differently than street shoes) or it could mean some crazy sounding foot and toe exercises (do them, crazy is good!) or some extraordinarily annoying leg posture work (standing in front of a mirror and maintaining correct leg alignment as you slowly do some very controlled movements) or more hip and core strengthening ("butt and gut"). Or maybe all of that at once!
It would help if the cycling PT is a woman, because what you're dealing with is the classic woman's leg and female PT's seem to get it better; but having a cyclist working with you is more important!
