Heel Pain/Plantar Fasciitis

Heel pain is one of the most common foot complaints. Plantar fasciitis involves irritation of the plantar fascia, the strong band of tissue running underneath the foot from the heel toward the toes. Symptoms frequently include pain beneath or around the heel, particularly after periods of rest or with prolonged standing, walking, or exercise.

Because heel pain can have several causes, a chiropody assessment can help identify contributing factors involving foot structure, pressure, gait, and footwear. Treatment may include custom foot orthotics and appropriate orthopedic footwear. Physiotherapy can address strength, flexibility, and loading of the foot and lower leg, while shockwave therapy may be recommended for appropriate persistent plantar fascia conditions. Massage therapy or acupuncture may also complement treatment when appropriate.
