Dealing with the nagging pain of plantar fasciitis can make every step feel like a chore. But, did you know chiropractic care offers a natural and effective way to manage this condition? Dr. Serena Kleinstub focuses on treating the root causes of plantar fasciitis, helping patients like you find relief and get back to living without pain. Let’s explore how our personalized care can support your recovery journey.
What is Plantar Fasciitis?
Plantar fasciitis is one of those conditions that, while common, can be quite disruptive. It involves pain in the heel and bottom of the foot, caused by inflammation of the plantar fascia—a thick band of tissue that runs across the sole of your foot.
Key Symptoms of Plantar Fasciitis
- Heel Pain: A sharp pain, especially noticeable first thing in the morning.
- Foot Discomfort: Pain along the bottom of the foot, which tends to worsen after long periods of standing or walking.
- Stiffness: Tightness in the foot, which might feel better with movement but returns after resting.
- Tenderness: Sensitivity to touch, especially around the heel or sole.
How Can Chiropractic Help?
At Dr. Serena Kleinstub’s office, we offer chiropractic techniques specifically designed to address plantar fasciitis. Our approach includes:
- Foot and Spinal Adjustments: Correcting misalignments in the spine and foot to reduce pressure on the plantar fascia and improve overall alignment.
- Soft Tissue Therapy: Using techniques like myofascial release to target inflamed tissues and break down scar tissue.
- Custom Orthotics: Recommending or providing orthotic inserts that help distribute foot pressure more evenly.
- Exercise Guidance: Suggesting stretches and strengthening exercises that can support foot health and prevent re-injury.
