The Simple way to Treat and Prevent Plantar Fasciitis

By Eva Robinson


Plantar fasciitis is inflammation of the plantar fascia tendon. This tendon is the connective tissue that runs the length of the bottom of the foot. The pain caused is often described as feeling "like a stone bruise". It's on set is usually gradual and it is often worst in the morning or after sitting for long periods. Foot orthotics have a very high success rate as treatment for plantar fasciitis. In a number of trials and studies, orthotics have been found to be the most effect form of non-invasive treatment.

Orthotics help to restore your natural foot function and with an estimated 70% of the population suffering from bad foot biomechanics it's no surprise they have become so popular. Orthotics are inserts that are placed inside your shoe and offer full support for your feet and ankles. Having the weight distributed evenly over your feet will alleviate more than just foot pain, the relief of knee hip and lower back pain can be noted as well.

Luckily over pronation and the painful injuries it can cause are easily treated in a non-surgical and affordable way with a supportive Orthotic. Also known as orthoses, orthotics are simply inserts for your shoes that provide necessary arch support and shock absorbency which minimizes the chance of foot injures and aids the healing of current conditions.

Shock absorption and padding is ideal for reducing the impact and pressure put on your feet. This is especially important when treating overuse injuries, like plantar fasciitis. Shock absorbing orthotics are ideal for both the healing process and the prevention of the condition.

The arch support acts as a wedge to force you to step in a way that keeps you from putting extra pressure on your plantar fascia (which runs along the arch). For this reason, it is important to purchase orthotics that are supportive and not just cushioning.

Whether you are currently suffering from an injury or would like to prevent one definitely take the time to look at the vast range of orthotics available. Prevention is the key and considering we only have two feet the best way to get the highest performance out of them is to offer protection and support any way we can.
