Advanced Care for Plantar Fasciitis Heel Pain
Plantar fasciitis is one of the most common causes of heel pain, often making walking, running, and daily activities uncomfortable. Without proper treatment, the condition can worsen over time and lead to chronic pain.
At our Manhattan clinic, we provide personalized plantar fasciitis treatment plans designed to reduce pain, improve healing, and restore mobility. We offer advanced non-surgical options—including shockwave therapy—to help relieve chronic heel pain and support long-term recovery.
What Is Plantar Fasciitis?
Plantar fasciitis occurs when the plantar fascia—a thick band of tissue that supports the arch of your foot—becomes irritated or inflamed.
This often causes sharp heel pain, especially with the first steps in the morning or after periods of rest. Repetitive strain, poor foot mechanics, and overuse are common causes of plantar fasciitis.
Plantar Fasciitis Treatment Options
We provide personalized treatment plans based on the severity of your symptoms and the cause of your heel pain:
- Custom orthotics for arch support and pressure relief.
- Stretching and strengthening exercises.
- Supportive footwear recommendations.
- Anti-inflammatory treatments to reduce irritation.
- Shockwave therapy to stimulate healing and relieve chronic heel pain.
- Advanced therapies for persistent plantar fasciitis
Shockwave therapy is a highly effective non-surgical treatment that promotes tissue healing and helps reduce chronic inflammation in the plantar fascia.
