Understanding Plantar Fasciitis
Plantar fasciitis is inflammation of the thick band of tissue (the plantar fascia) that runs across the bottom of your foot. It’s a common cause of heel pain, especially in runners, people who are on their feet a lot, or those with poor foot biomechanics.
Ignoring it can lead to chronic discomfort and altered walking patterns.
Common Symptoms
- Sharp, stabbing heel pain (especially with the first steps in the morning)
- Pain that improves with movement but worsens with prolonged standing
- Tightness in the arches or calves
How We Help
We treat the cause, not just the symptoms:
- Chiropractic adjustments to the feet, ankles, hips, and pelvis for optimal biomechanics
- Soft tissue therapy for the plantar fascia, calf muscles, and Achilles tendon
- Specific stretching and strengthening programs
- Footwear advice and orthotic referral if needed
- Imaging referral (like ultrasound) if more severe cases warrant it
FAQs – Plantar Fasciitis
Q: Can chiropractic adjustments help with foot problems?
A: Yes. Restoring proper joint motion and muscle balance can improve foot function and ease the strain on the plantar fascia.
Q: Do I need orthotics for plantar fasciitis?
A: Not always — many cases improve with conservative care, but custom orthotics can help if structural issues are a contributing factor.
