Plantar Fasciitis Exercises Handout

Plantar fasciitis is the inflammation of the thick band of tissue that runs across the bottom of the foot, causing heel pain.

This common foot condition is typically triggered by repetitive stress, overuse, or poor footwear. It is common in athletes and individuals who may stand for long periods.

Treatment typically includes rest, stretching exercises, ice, and anti-inflammatory medications. Individuals who have more intense cases of plantar fasciitis may require more intense therapies such as corticosteroid injections or surgery.
