Plantar fasciitis is painful, but the right treatment can get back on your feet, pain free
Plantar fasciitis is caused by repetitive strain injury to the “fascia” ligament at the bottom of the foot and heel. This type of repetitive strain injury can be caused by excessive running or walking, jumping, and bouncing. It can also result from ground impact while wearing inadequate footgear.
Treatment for plantar fasciitis pain is available at Vancouver Orthotics.
How do you know if you have plantar fasciitis?
Plantar fasciitis is an injury that affects your heel, but the pain can radiate into your calf, foot, and toes. It often comes on gradually, and the pain can be sharp or be a dull ache. It can feel like you have a stone in your shoe, or like you have a bruise on your heel. The pain is worse in the morning and when you first get up and step onto your feet. It can get better when you go for a walk, but it can be worse again after a few steps. If you have plantar fasciitis, you may notice:
- Sharp or stabbing pain at the bottom of your foot
- Pain near the heel
- Pain that can be continuous or pain that comes and go
Right treatment to get you back on your healthy feet
Many treatment options exist, including rest, stretching, strengthening, changing shoes selection, non-custom arch supports, custom orthotics, night splints, anti-inflammatory agents and as a last resort surgery. Usually, plantar fasciitis can be treated successfully by tailoring treatment to an individual’s situation.

How can custom orthotics help treat Plantar Fasciitis?
A custom pair of custom orthotics can make a big difference in improving your plantar fasciitis, by supporting your arches & improving overall foot alignment. Specific modification is made for your feet to cushion a sensitive, deteriorating heel pad. That’s why orthotics is one of the top-recommended conservative treatments for plantar fasciitis!
