Typical symptoms:

• Pain in the heel or arch of the foot (sometimes swollen)

• Sharp pain with first steps in the morning or after rest

• Pain that worsens with standing, walking, or exercise

• Symptoms building gradually over weeks or months

We use a combination of progressive strengthening, load management and hands-on treatment to reduce pain and prevent recurrence:

• Exercise rehabilitation: strength and mobility programme tailored to your needs

• Orthotics: semi-bespoke or fully custom insoles to reduce stress on the fascia

• Shockwave therapy: promotes healing in long-standing cases

• Taping: rigid or flexible taping to support the foot during flare-ups

• Soft tissue & joint mobilisation

• Footwear changes, heel cushions, or wedges

• Training load adjustments for runners and athletes
