Plantar Fasciitis
Plantar Fasciitis
We are trained to evaluate and treat plantar fasciitis.
When you are diagnosed with plantar fasciitis, we will work with you to develop a program to decrease your symptoms that may include:
• Stretching exercises to improve the flexibility of your ankle and the plantar fascia
• Use of a night splint to maintain correct ankle and toe positions
• Selection of supportive footwear and/or shoe inserts that minimize foot pronation and reduce stress to the plantar fascia
• Application of ice to decrease pain and inflammation
• Iontophoresis (a gentle way to deliver medication through the skin)
• Taping of the foot to provide short-term relief
Research shows that most cases of plantar fasciitis improve over time with these conservative treatments, and surgery is rarely
