Plantar Fasciitis Treatment in Austin, Texas
With plantar fasciitis, just taking a step can put you in a world of pain. You’ve tried everything – different shoes, drug store cushions and inserts. They may work for a day or two, but the pain always returns. We have the right solution for you.
Simply stated, plantar fasciitis is an inflammation of the band of tissue (the plantar fascia) that extends from the heel to the toes. We often roll inward (pronation), flattening the arch and overstretching the plantar fascia (a thick, powerful layer of ligament-like tissue that fans out over the sole of your foot). Your feet strike the hard, manmade surface an average of 5 to 10 thousand times a day. With pronation, the plantar fascia tissue gets continuously overstretched and inflamed, and that’s why it hurts!
Fixes for plantar fasciitis include:
- Custom Arch Supports
- Over-the-Counter Arch Supports
- Proper Fitting Shoes
- Shoe Modification
- Heel cushions, night boots, and other pain relief products
- Rocker Bottom Shoes to reduce pressure on the ball of foot and joints
