Do you feel sharp pain under your heel when taking the first few steps in the morning? Does prolonged standing or walking make the pain worse? Has heel pain started affecting your daily activities? Are you searching for a βphysiotherapist near meβ for heel pain relief? Plantar fasciitis is a common cause of persistent heel pain.
Why Does Plantar Fasciitis Occur?
The plantar fascia is a strong band of tissue supporting the arch of the foot. Repetitive stress, prolonged standing, sudden increases in activity, tight calf muscles, or unsuitable footwear can irritate this tissue and cause pain.
How Physiotherapy Helps
Physiotherapy focuses on reducing pain and improving foot function. Treatment focuses on:
β’ Calf and plantar fascia stretching
β’ Foot and ankle strengthening
β’ Manual therapy when appropriate
β’ Gait and movement assessment
β’ Footwear and activity advice
What You Can Try at Home
Avoid sudden increases in walking or running, wear supportive footwear, stretch your calves regularly, avoid walking barefoot on hard surfaces if it aggravates pain, and gradually strengthen your foot muscles.
For specialised care, Dr. Deepika Bansal β Physiotherapist in Balewadi, Wakad, Aundh, Pimple Saudagar provides personalised physiotherapy programs to reduce heel pain, improve foot function, and help you return to comfortable walking.
