Incredibly grateful to have access to such a high quality content. From your communication, demonstration of the exercises, the use of evidence based information to the editing of the video, everything is PERFECT!

[@RuatheSidhe]

I’ve been dealing with plantar fasciitis for 5 months and progressively getting worse despite seeing my Dr and a physio. I was doing their recommended exercises and rolling my feet on a tennis ball, taping, and wearing special inner soles after severely cutting back my regular exercise because I literally couldn’t walk. I was beginning to think there was something really wrong and life would never get back to normal because the pain was all day for me. This video made so much sense by including the calves and I did the exercises… it took two days and the pain had reduced by 95%. I no longer have heel pain first thing in the morning. My feet no longer hurt after sitting for a short period of time. The key is the toe yoga and rebuilding that strength and dexterity. THANK YOU SO MUCH!

[@mosesmom]

Oh my goodness, I'm so glad for this information. I started this morning with rest and ice and after viewing this video went straight to the recommended stretches and exercises. I have only taken 1 Aleve this morning and already after 1 day feel 100% better. When I researched the recovery times for this , I was disheartened to say the least. After today's recommendations I am throughly encouraged that I will be completely healed in weeks not months. I can't thank you enough.

[@2lotsill]

How’s you healing coming along?

[@moorejl57]

I wish this video had been available 10 years ago when I had PF. I tried everything under the sun to decrease the pain at age 55. What finally worked for me was to lose 20 lbs and new shoes with excellent support and cushioning. This was prior to me understanding the progressive loading concept for rehab. So in my case, I lowered the stress by losing weight. I started lifting weights at about age 58 and it has never returned.

[@thatgirlsandra]

Excellent information here! This was so condensed with useful information. I've watched hours of videos over the last three months in pain and could have just watched this single video. I took screenshots to save to scroll through and do these exercises daily in hopes it will help. A lot of these were recommended by my physical therapist individually at some point. Having them organized like this helps make sense of what they're trying to accomplish and helps me put together a plan for doing these by myself, which is critical if I'm going to get better. PT in the PT office isn't frequent enough and can't go on forever. Thank you!

This is the best video I've seen. No complicated jargon and to the point. What I really liked was how it was broken down into two parts, pain relief and strengthening for long term results. Pain relief is the first thing I was looking for and I'm sure others felt the same way. Once you can get that then you can move on to the strengthening excercises. Thank You for posting this video.

The best thung ,I love that you doing the exercises in your videos and mention when we can use them as a physiotherapists.and mention the papers that support your speech

[@Elflamencojuan]

Finally, sound advice for PF which was probably caused by a combination of over striding whilst walking (so hard heal impact) and poor shoes (thick spongy insole that went soft within 2 months). I did not want to stop doing a 2 mile walk to work or become dependent on orthotics or just "rest". So I bought some zero drop shoes (vivobarefoot shoes) and after day 1 (so 4 miles), the pain is no worse. But the flat shoes forced me to change my stride length drastically and slow right down which has in effect reduced the exercise load. This combined with the sensible exercises recommended here, might just make the difference and allow me to recover. Thank you for dispelling the myths and providing a good steer.

I have been suffering from plantar faciitis for 5 months now. I wish this is how my physio talked. Not just giving a list of exercises and sending me on my way will do these recommendations that are science based! I have a calneal bone spur that they wanted to operate on. I am a nurse who walks around 15-20k steps per shift, and my feet kill me every day after shift, and it really is miserable living with plantar faciitis. This makes a lot of sense that the bone spur is not a cause of it. For me, it's occupational.
