Why Plantar Fasciitis Keeps Coming Back — And How We Treat It Differently

Plantar fasciitis is one of the most common causes of heel pain, often triggered by tight calves, weak foot stabilizers, poor mechanics, or overuse. While many people are told to “stretch, ice, and rest,” these quick fixes rarely address the actual cause — which is why symptoms often return or never fully resolve.

Generic treatments like basic stretching routines, or one-size-fits-all therapy programs can offer temporary relief but fail to create lasting change. That’s because true recovery requires restoring proper foot mechanics, improving strength through the entire lower chain, and retraining how the body absorbs force.

Our Approach Is Different

At our practice, every plantar fasciitis rehab program is developed in collaboration with a foot and ankle surgeon. Our shared goal is clear: resolve pain fully and prevent the need for surgery whenever possible.

We take the time to assess your unique movement patterns, tailor your treatment to your lifestyle and activity demands, and progress you through a strategic, science-based plan designed for long-term success — not short-term relief.

If you’re tired of temporary fixes, we’re ready to help you walk, run, and live pain-free again.
