Heel Pain / Plantar Fasciitis

Plantar Fasciitis and Heel Pain Relief

Targeted Care to Calm Inflammation

Plantar fasciitis is the most common cause of heel pain. It happens when the thick band of tissue along the arch becomes irritated where it attaches to the heel. Morning start-up pain and soreness after standing, walking, or running are typical. Early evaluation helps confirm the diagnosis and rule out other causes such as stress fracture, nerve entrapment, or arthritis.

Your visit includes a focused exam, gait analysis, and, when needed, imaging. Treatment is personalized and may include activity modification, ice, anti-inflammatory care, calf and plantar fascia stretching, massage with a ball or roller, night splints, supportive shoes, taping, and custom orthotics to reduce strain. We also address training errors and work habits that overload the heel.



If pain persists, advanced options can include corticosteroid injection when appropriate, shockwave therapy, or other regenerative treatments. Most patients improve steadily over several weeks as inflammation settles and strength returns. We guide a gradual return to activity and provide a prevention plan with footwear guidance and maintenance stretching so you can move with confidence.
