Treatment for Plantar Fasciitis
The Physiotherapy Center LTD team’s knowledge of your body’s musculoskeletal systems means we can help you treat plantar fasciitis without invasive treatment methods (like surgery). While rehabilitation might take some time (usually a few weeks to a few months), you can resolve your pain through targeted foot exercises. Here’s what you can expect when you visit us: • A thorough evaluation: Besides reviewing your symptoms, we’ll conduct a comprehensive gait assessment and other movement screens to help us identify any biomechanical factors that might contribute to your plantar fasciitis. • Pain management: We’ll help manage your acute pain through hands-on manual therapy techniques, foot taping, and other drug-free approaches. • Therapeutic exercise: Stretching and strengthening exercises will help resolve your current bout of plantar
fasciitis. We’ll provide you with a tailored exercise program, including simple exercises you can do at home to help maximize your recovery. • Prevention tips: Plantar fasciitis is usually an overuse injury, meaning it develops gradually over time. A frequent cause of plantar fasciitis is starting an intense new workout program (as Sarah did). Faulty gait mechanics and other lifestyle factors can contribute to it as well. We’ll provide you with customized advice and strategies for avoiding future incidents of plantar fasciitis. Got Foot Pain? Call Us Today!
