Share with your friends.

Plantar fasciitis is a painful foot condition that affects millions of people. A great deal of regular heel pain and ball of foot pain can be attributed to plantar fasciitis. Many people experience the pain of plantar fasciitis, but many don’t understand what it actually is.

Basically, plantar fasciitis is the pain felt by the accumulation of micro tears in the plantar fascia connective tissue that runs along the bottom of the foot. This tissue extends from the heel bone to the ball of the foot. If you experience regular sharp pain in these areas, there’s a good chance it is plantar fasciitis.

Plantar fasciitis is associated with consistent weighting of the foot, and is quite common among athletes and people who spend many hours standing and walking on hard surfaces. The pain is most strongly felt during the first steps of your day and after long periods of activity.

Since plantar fasciitis is so common, and there is no simple cure, it is very important to monitor the pain and take measures to improve your overall foot health on a daily basis. Rest, ice, stretching exercises, and a pair of comfortable shoes for plantar fasciitis can all help alleviate the pain.

~Happy client

Happy feet! I have crummy feet. Pigeon toed, hammer toe, plantar fasciitis, they're a mess. Ive been a New Balance guy for last 10 years, but wasnt getting the comfort I had in the past. After trying 10 different shoes in the last 12 months (Hoka, NB, Puma, Asics and protalus inserts). These were the most comfortable shoes I have worn in years, STRAIGHT OUT OF THE BOX! the insoles felt like the arch might be to high, but they seem to just melt around my feet. After a 8 hour trial in the house, took to the gym. 20 mins jogging, no pain. I never jog!

Who is Affected by Plantar Fasciitis?

In short, anyone can be affected by plantar fasciitis. The feet are the foundation of the body and undergo a lot of day to day strain. What’s more, the hard, flat, rough surfaces we walk, stand, and run on every day stress our feet even more. It’s no wonder we develop foot pain.

Athletes, and especially runners, are highly susceptible to developing heel pain and plantar fasciitis, because of the constant expanding and retracting of the plantar fascia tendon. The stress of impact during running and sports can accelerate the stress on the tendon and lead to plantar fasciitis.

Other than athletic activity, plantar fasciitis can develop from a host of other causes. Rapid weight gain or obesity can lead to the condition due to the amount of pressure being regularly placed on the feet. Flat feet, high arches, and a rigid achilles tendon can also contribute to plantar fasciitis.

For many people, however, plantar fasciitis occurs due to a combination of spending long hours on their feet, and wearing poorly supported shoes. Alongside regular treatment of plantar fasciitis, upgrading to a highly supportive pair of shoes is essential to managing and reducing foot pain.
