PLANTAR FASCIITIS

A progressive start of discomfort in the centre of the heel that is made worse by weight-bearing activities, as well as after rest or non-weight-bearing periods are symptoms of plantar fasciitis. When an injury occurs, it frequently has a chronic nature, and the normal symptoms endure longer than a year. Ages 40 to 60 are when plantar heel pain is most common, and both sexes are equally affected by the condition. 
Many things, including the kind of shoes you wear, your foot anatomy, overuse, and the terrain you walk on, might contribute to plantar fasciitis. Heel discomfort is the primary sign of plantar fasciitis. Consult a medical expert as soon as possible. At Run Ready, we provide a unique sports physiotherapy model that delivers a professional standard rehabilitation experience. We optimise recovery from all types of injuries via an integrated process of sports physiotherapy and rehab in our state-of-the-art strength and conditioning facility.

PLANTAR HEEL PAIN

Pain in the heel, typically felt at the front or bottom of the heel bone, is the main characteristic of plantar fasciitis. The discomfort might be stronger in the morning or after periods of inactivity and is frequently characterised as severe or stabbing. Long durations of standing or walking may also make the discomfort worse. Our friendly and highly experienced team work collaboratively to formulate a training plan to optimise your sporting performance. With a state-of-the-art training facility, your rehab will be accelerated, returning you to sport sooner and in better condition. See also related program for stress fracture treatment.

PLANTAR FASCIITIS TREATMENT

It’s important to remember that everyone experiences plantar fasciitis symptoms differently. It is advised to get medical consultation from a healthcare provider if you believe you may have plantar fasciitis. They are able to provide a precise diagnosis and make therapy recommendations. Our expert team thoroughly assess injuries using VALD testing equipment, giving unparalleled insight into injury risk, physical deficits and goal setting.

Our mission is to provide our local athletes with professional level sports rehabilitation through our sports physio programs, helping them return to the sport they love.
