Barefoot shoes, toe spacers, and most importantly, strengthening/stretching my calves and improving my ankle mobility has given me tremendous plantar fasciitis relief.

3:57 Roll on the bottom of the foot
5:03 Spread big toe and soft tissue work
5:45 Stretch top side of the foot
6:36 Short foot exercise: grip the ground
7:09 Big toe lateral stretch

Oh my god, the relief is intense. I’m so glad I came across your video. This morning I didn’t dare to fully extend my left leg because I was afraid I’d tear my muscle on the bottom part of the foot. After doing these stretches it feels so much more relaxed. My toes also spread much further apart than they usually do. Thank you so much

Most important is to avoid bare foot shoes when having pain. Eventually after healing the pain and getting feet muscles strong, very gradually ease in to minimal support shoes over many years. You cannot become bare foot runner after having worn shoes all your life. Made this mistake and brought on the plantar fasciosis problem

Excellent info! A few years back I discovered I had a leg length discrepancy. I was prescribed custom insoles and a heel lift for the shorter leg. Fast forward 3.5 years and I developed plantar fasciitis in the foot that’s associated with the shorter leg. Did some research and decided to make slow, but drastic changes. First removed the custom insoles, then the heel lift. Then I got some barefoot shoes (Splays) and toe spreaders. Just about 6ish months in and my foot feels SOOO much better! Haven’t tried running yet, but I’m confident I’ll be able to get back to it pain-free eventually. I’m just so in shock that the devices that were meant to help ended up being the cause!

Good explanation for 1 specific cause of insertional plantar fasciopathy! Don’t forget it can come from other directions in the chain & from other external biomechanics. The vast majority of my patients have calves so tight they can only achieve 0-10 degrees dorsiflexion which can cause the plantar fascia to take a lot of the load, in which case throwing them into a minimalist shoe aggravates the symptoms

Thank you for making this video! I have come across countless videos and not a single one mentioned about the foot wear. Now it all makes sense. I started having plantar fasciopathy since I changed my track shoes. No one, not even doctor or physiotherapist taught me to do the stretches you did and gave the explanation you did. After doing the stretches in the video, I can already feel a difference! This video is life saving. ❤❤❤

I got plantar fasciitis from not wearing shoes on my hard wood floors, as soon as I started wearing supportive shoes, my feet got better.

Changing to xero minimalist shoes changed the game for me. I lived with a tight back from wearing a vest in the military for 6yrs. I now work 12hr shifts in xero shoes with ZERO foot/leg/back pain 🎉❤

[Spimmick]

This actually worked! I tried so many other videos on YouTube with millions of views and nothing. Yours actually did the trick. Thank you

[darkinferno]

THANK YOU, It’s been hurting for 3 days, i just finished this video and now i’m feeling better with the exercises.

[NataliaCanaday-LinenNeedleandT]

Well, I have been wearing barefoot shoes, toe separators, doing exercises to strengthen my feet… for a year! Nothing alleviates my plantar fasciitis, on the contrary, it is very aggravated. I am at my wits end with this.

[correcttoes]

Great work guys! Thank you for sharing.

[nenad]

Wow! The relief even for my minor case is so clear immediately.

[clambarn]

This is the ONLY video I have found that explains the mechanics of the problem completely. Thanks.

[ruymanbr]

Jeez... this is GOLD!! Actually what I needed today. Thanks!

[anabanana]

THANK YOU!!!! No one ever could explain what the intense, hot, strain was in the middle of my foot whenever i would try to balance on one foot in my yoga classes. I think this is it!

[millemaolchannel]

Game changing video - best on YouTube for plantar fasciitis!!

[scuba]

Being a new therapist I suffered from plantar fasciitis, and was doing these intuitively, but glad to see that I am not crazy lol

[juicyradiant]

Finally! Someone giving correct information! Thank you so so much
