Easing the Strain on Your Feet Physical Therapy for Plantar Fasciitis
(Continued from Outside)
Am I at Risk for Developing Plantar Fasciitis? Like many physical ailments, plantar fasciitis typically forms from physical exertion. A lot of people tend to develop plantar fasciitis when they are engaging in physical activity more often than usual, or when they are spending an abnormal amount of time on their feet compared to their average daily routine. Some common causes of plantar fasciitis include: • Spending the whole day, or excessive amounts of the day, on one’s feet; especially when it is out of the ordinary for that person. • Having either very flat or very high arches on the bottom of one’s feet. • Participating in short bursts of physical activity, especially when being followed by extended periods of rest. • Diabetes. • The coming of increased age, thus decreasing the flexibility of the plantar fascia tissue, and thinning the padding of the heel. Treating Plantar Fasciitis: Physical therapy is a common treatment for plantar fasciitis. Our physical therapists often work as a teamwith our local podiatrist to ensure you are receiving the best treatment possible for your condition. At FYZICAL Therapy & Balance Centers, we offer several advanced methods
and modalities to treat your pain and relieve inflammation. Your treatment plan may consist of any combination of the following: • Blood flow restriction therapy. • Instrument assisted soft tissue mobilization.
• Radial shockwave treatment. • AlterG anti-gravity treadmill. • Kinesiotaping. • Gait analysis. • Footwear recommendations.
INGREDIENTS • 1 cup unsalted butter • 2 cups old- fashioned oats • 1 and 2/3 cup all-purpose flour • 1 tsp baking soda • 1/2 tsp salt • 1 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon • 1 1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice • 1 cup granulated sugar
• 3/4 cup brown sugar • 1 egg yolk, (at room temperature) • 2 tsp pure vanilla extract • 1 cup pumpkin puree Brown Butter Glaze: • 1/4 cup unsalted butter • 1 1/2 cups confectioners’ sugar • 3 Tbsp milk • 1/4 tsp vanilla
These treatment services are all done as a way to speed up your recovery time by alleviating pain at the source and enhancing your body’s natural healing process. Alternative treatments, such as Tylenol or Advil, can also be used in conjunction with physical therapy, if pain persists. In extreme cases, a surgical procedure can be conducted to remove a spur or release the inflammation of the plantar fascia; however, 90% of people respond well to physical therapy treatments alone, without the need for surgery.

DIRECTIONS In a skillet, melt and brown 1 stick of butter over medium heat for about 5-8 min. Remove from heat and let cool for 5 min. While cooling, whisk oats, flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and pumpkin pie spice together in a medium bowl. Preheat oven to 350˚F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Set aside. Pour 3/4 cup of the cooled brown butter into a large bowl and whisk in granulated sugar and brown sugar until combined. Whisk in egg yolk and vanilla extract, and then pumpkin puree until combined. Mix in dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until combined. Use a medium scoop to place balls of cookie dough onto the two baking sheets 3 in apart from each other.
