Plantar fasciitis is inflammation of a contracture or tight band of muscle tissue running along the sole of the foot that often leads to reduced function, limited range of motion, and local or referred pain. Our doctors are specially trained to detect plantar fasciitis during a thorough examination.
Plantar fasciitis can be due to a variety of conditions. To determine what is causing your foot pain, we recommend a thorough examination by one of our doctors.
Chiropractic adjustments increase the joint range of motion, where tightness and stiffness are palpated upon a chiropractic examination. Our chiropractors can perform chiropractic adjustments on any joint where dysfunction is present. Our office utilizes multiple adjusting techniques for added comfort.
Manual therapy is also an excellent treatment option for plantar fasciitis. Manual therapy helps to relieve trigger points and muscular dysfunction by using various treatment techniques to induce muscle relaxation and pain relief.

Dry needling is often a painless and effective procedure for plantar fasciitis. This treatment technique uses very fine filiform needles to penetrate the skin, resulting in muscle relaxation, increased microcirculation, and nervous system regulation. Check your chiropractor's licensing and certifications to ensure the highest quality outcomes.
We often provide tips for stretching when necessary. Strengthening of the proper muscles is also essential to stabilize the musculature to prevent trigger points, pain, and dysfunction from occurring in the future.
