Dr. Berg I watch you for dietary reasons, but I clicked on this video because I've been suffering from plantars fasciitis since August of of 2023. I've seen a podiatrist who referred me to a physical therpist. I was in physical therapy for 3 months and decided to take a break because the treatments were painful. Since January 2024 I've been walking around with pain. After seeing this video I streteched my foot downward like you suggested and applied pressure to the bottom of my foot messaging it. This was last night. This morning the pain is GONE! 😭 Thank you, Jesus for putting this video infront of me. Dr. Berg this video I will recommend to anyone who suffers from plantar fasciitis. ❤❤❤❤ I realized what was being done to my foot at the physical therapist was the opposite of what you showed in this video. They were stretching my foot upward toward my shin making the pain worse.

Started out with me passing out from pain from central disc protrusion in back causing me to hit back of my head on the toilet, causing post concussion syndrome, misalignment to my C1 atlas vertebrae under my brain stem becoming super dizzy and off balance everyday, couldn't drive for a longggg time, having hip misalignment and twisted ankle when falling to now apparently this foot issue on same foot. I'm guessing since lack of exercise I gained weight causing this foot thing. I'm a lot better than before but it never ends. I'm only 41 but felt like my life was over during the worst days. It was AWFUL. I still cry when I speak of it it was a lot I endured for so long.😢

This did provide me a measure of relief instantly… I’ve had PF on and off for over 10 years. It sounds common sense now that stretching it when it’s already torn and inflamed will make it worse. But there’s a few important things you’re missing in the video. One main cause of PF is incorrect footwear. The foot is supposed to pronate a certain amount but when your big toe is pushed inward due to narrow shoes , the fascia is strained. You’ve got to have flexible shoes with a wide toe box, and minimal heel. A large heel adds extra strain to your feet. Another useful treatment is the graston technique on your feet/calves/shins. If there’s scar tissue built up restricting movement, it won’t just go away on its own. I found greater instant relief from that than this stretch, but this stretch did help. Thank you for the video.

I watched your videos every morning to help remind me to stay on track with health eating. I was suffering with plantar fasciitis. The first step I took was to begin cutting out sugar as much as possible. My pain level was at an 8. It is now at a 1. I'm so relieved, however bc I was avoiding gluten I begin eating lots of corn tortillas and my pain came back. I didn't give up so I being watching more of your videos and continued to learn more Information about eating. I learned corn was a cause of inflammation.😮 That's when I stopped eating corn all together. I'm still learning more and more each day. Sometimes I will watch the same video two or three times a day bc I always seem to miss something. I was 158 and I'm now 148. I'm grateful that you take time to offer your knowledge to others. Bc of your dedication and effort to teach us. I can now make smarter eating choices not just for me but for my family. I'm very grateful for you. Please know that you're an inspiration to me.

I had limping Plantar fasciitis pain for almost 15 years, started when I was thin in my 30s. My podiatrist did custom shoe inserts twice, recommended stretches 3 times daily, and as it got worse over the years he then offered anti-inflammatory pills, I didn't take the free sample & didn't get the recommended prescription. It got even worse over the next year, so bad I couldn't get up from the bed or chair without help from my family or crutches. My feet them always hurt, and I dreaded sitting bcz it would even hurt bad while resting. Felt the least painful while on my feet after the first few excruciating steps. I was almost ready to get the injections. He said if that didn't work then surgery was next. But after only 3 days off carbs, I no longer needed help to get up. After 3 weeks off carbs THE PAIN STOPPED COMPLETELY!!! No more limping!!!! It was the starches & sugars all along!!!! At first I was very excited to be cured, but then I got angry bcz the cure was so fast & easy & free, and my doctors didn't tell me. I could have been pain free YEARS ago!! Rrr. My podiatrist didn't even know my feet had gotten that bad bcz I didn't want him trying to get me to do the surgery. It's been almost 3 years no Plantar fasciitis pain in either foot. I used to also have very uncomfortable restless leg syndrome. That disappeared at the same time. A LOT of different kinds of pains & problems stopped or greatly reduced when I switched to mostly KETO & Intermittent Fasting. Bonus, by a year later I lost 60 lbs too & was back to my trim teen weight when I met my husband in 1989! Looked amazing for our first child's wedding in August 2020. The USDA Food Pyramid & doctor recommended eating frequency made me fat & gave me diabetes & many health problems. I think the primary care doctors are in on it with the hospitals to increase ER visits & surgery income, and Big Pharma $$ too.

I had Plantar Fasiitis and what it actually is Is a tare in the bands that connect from your toes to the back of your heel ! I got a tare from my Martial Arts training. After a while I noticed anytime I threw a kick or tried to run I would feel extreme pain in the bottom of my foot . Especially after waking up in the morning and trying to step out of bed it felt like you’ve stepped on a nail . I went to the doctors office and they told me to stretch my feet but that didn’t do anything . When I went back to the doctor he gave me a Cortisone shot right in the bottom of my heel right where the pain was ! Then the doctor was injecting the Cortisone slowly moving the needle in a circular movement ., the pain was excruciating and I was seeing stars . After getting the shot I felt instant relief and I felt like going dancing ! As soon as I went back to my Martial Arts classes and threw my first kick , the pain came right back . I said these doctors don’t know how to cure this ! I decided to try google and asked if anyone has ever been cured of Plantar Faciitis and then I found my cure and it worked ! The cure was simple . I went to a hardware store and bought Gorilla Tape and wrapped my foot with the tape over my sock , not to tight , you don’t want to cut off your circulation in your foot . Just make it snug . You wrap the tape under your Arch and over the top of your foot . As soon as I taped my foot I was able to walk again , run and jump and kick . I continued to wrap my foot for three months and the tare was healed and never had Plantar Faciitis again ! I went back and told the doctor and he was amazed ! So to anybody that’s suffering from this , Get the Gorilla Tape and wrap your feet and you will be cured ! My friends wife suffered from this and I told him about the Tape and she was cured !

God I love you I have been going through radiation and chemo for cervical cancer. Then out of the blue two weeks ago I get plantar fasciitis. My pain was about a 9 after sitting here doing this it’s down to 2. I believe it will be gone in a week. Xx

So so grateful. Pain was incressing each day. I was only at a 4 and starting to be unable to put weight on my foot by the end of the day. I would have got so much worse. Not cool. After the 3rd stretch while you were talking, something in my heel clicked and the throbbing pain dropped to barely noticeable. I also got up and didnt feel any discomfort. Amazing !! I understand I may need to continue with this stretch for it to go away conpletely. But NO doubt, I was making it worse. Thank you so much

I have had plantar fasciitis for more than a year, I tried night splint, strassburg socks, physiotherapy, stretching and what not.. let alone steroids and meds nothing worked, I couldn’t stand for 5 continues minutes or even cook myself a meal, or even go for a walk .. I was hopeless I thought I will never heal.. until a friend recommended water fasting, I did it for 3 days (the plan was a week but I just got extremely fatigued), it worked like magic! I can say 80% of the pain is gone.. I think it was bc of all junk and sugar I was consuming the inflammation never seemed to decrease.. wish you all healthy feet 🙏

Cortisone and orthotics cleared up my plantar fasciitis about 15 yrs ago. Unfortunately, my right heel flared up again a few months ago, but this time nothing (shots, orthotics, stretching) helped. I work on my feet and I started to panic. This video!!! Wow! This man is the ONLY guy I've seen recommend stretching the TOP of the foot. Almost counterintuitive, but the pain relief was almost immediate, and within a few days, I'm pain free again! No more pain rubs or ibuprofen. I can't thank you enough! You are a Godsend! 👍🏼

Suffered from PF for about 6yrs now, never knew about Dr. Eric's video until now. But have been doing those stretches for about 1yr now and never had PF pain since I've been doing it. Avoided eating at restaurants or ordering food for about 1 yr as well and did intermittent fasting or only eating when I'm hungry (dropped 15 pounds since November, I still give in to my cravings sometimes but I measure it so I don't overeat). Thank you Dr. Eric for putting out this video to help people suffering from PF.

My feet were a 8 to 9 and been this way for over 15 years! I've not been able to sleep at night for the pain and have to take meds to sleep, which leaves me groggy and foggy headed.

This is the best video I've watched in 2 days. I went for a deep tissue massage 2 days ago, by the afternoon I was struggling to walk and by the evening I couldn't put pressure on my foot. I had previously twisted my left ankle a few years ago and by the evening of the massage I couldn't sleep. I took anti-inflammatories, stretched it and basically done all the things to irritate the foot. By the second day i couldn't touch my foot without causing immediate pain. I couldn't even place my foot under it's own weight whilst elevated under a cushion or pillow. My pain was a 10 and within minutes of listening it went to a 6. I can place my foot down whilst sitting (albeit not for long) and flat whilst i try to maneuver around. Dr Berg, thank you is an understatement. I genuinely was sceptical because i listen yo your content for nutrition purposes but was i genuinely surprised. It's Christmas and the only time i can get help is the 27th. I also have a feeling the Dr will just say, anti-inflammatory and write it off. I was looking for a solution that wouldn't harm me whilst also healing me. Thank you Dr Berg, may the Lord really and truly bless and favour you

WOW!! Two days ago I experienced the on-site of PF. So I immediately started researching on Google and other KZbin videos. But it was THIS ONE by Dr. Berg that did the magic. I was at a throbbing, burning-couldn’t walk at a level 13. Today I’m down to a level of 4. I’m a firm believer of I.F., which I already do, but need to be better about what I put into my body during my eating window. Too much birthday cake 🎂 and ice cream 🍨 causes aches and pains and even poor quality of sleep. This is real stuff! Thank you Dr. Berg! You’re the BEST!💕

Incredible. Had plantar fasciitis for a few months now, and like a lot of people, I was stretching my toes upwards. I was obviously aggravating the fascia because I wasn’t getting better. Tried stretching the opposite way just now and then got up to walk. I was sceptical, thinking “this is going to hurt like hell” but it didn’t. I wasn’t hobbling or walking on top toes on one foot. The pain had gone from about 8 to 2. Unbelievable. I’ll try this everyday for a few weeks and see if I’m completely cured. Fantastic doctor this guy.

I accidentally cured my "Plantar Fasciitis" I had for 15 years in my left foot. Podiatrist treated my Plantar fasciitis with shots, straps, Vitamin D, orthopedics, etc. True story Dr. Berg! Long story short, I ended up in the hospital for a week and couldn't eat. After being released, the following day I felt like I broke my big toe on my right foot. Back to the hospital, and they diagnosed Gout. Gave me a shot, prescribed Colchicine, and sent me home. Next day, my big toe pain gone, and my 10 year long agony of 6-8 level pain of plantar fasciitis in my left foot was gone as well. I haven't had any plantar Fasciitis pain since..... Turns out kidneys excrete ketones before uric acid. My Uric acid level was 14 (normal is 7). Cured the gout, cured the plantar Fasciits. It worked for me, YMMV.

Had plantar fasciitis since Aug. 2023. Doctors want to prescribe drugs and the podiatrist sold me $600 orthodics that were too painful to wear. Nothing gave me relief, but with this stretch I went from a 7 to a 2. This isn't the first time you have come through for me doctor berg. Thankyou for everything you do. ❤️

I'd recently strained my knee and as a result was putting strain on my other joints and I ended up with plantar Fasciitis, I howled in pain standing on my foot and could only walk on the vary back of my foot on the heel. I tried these exercises for about 2 minutes there and notice a difference right away, I can put a bit more weight on my foot, still not out the woods but will definitely keep this exercise up to get rid of this.

For about a year now I’ve had an unbelievably tight calf, along with PF and glute sciatic pain in that same leg. I’ve done everything under the sun to release it all with little success. That one stretch, the exact opposite of what I’ve been told to do, has just released everything and lowered my PF tenderness significantly! WOW. I am so hopeful to continue this and finally see some lasting results. Bless you a thousand times sir!
