Plantar fasciitis is a common condition that causes pain in the heel and bottom of the foot. It is due to inflammation of the plantar fascia, a thick band of tissue connecting the heel bone to the toes. This condition often occurs due to overuse, poor footwear, or biomechanical issues. Physiotherapy is highly effective in reducing pain, improving foot mechanics, and promoting long-term recovery.
Physiotherapy is an effective treatment for plantar fasciitis, focusing on reducing pain and inflammation, improving flexibility, and correcting biomechanical issues. Our physiotherapists use techniques such as stretching, strengthening exercises, and manual therapy to relieve symptoms and prevent recurrence. We also provide advice on footwear and activity modification to support recovery.
