Top Comments of this video!! :3
I've had severe PF for 4 years now. I had an right foot achilles tear and surgery 4 years ago, then it lead to even more severe Plantar Fascia pain. I had PF release surgery 2 years ago. Still having severe PF pain. I have seen every Youtube video on PF, and all the PT I've received has "NEVER" said what you guys are saying.
This is the 1st one that actually goes "against 95%" of what every Podiatrist treatment has been recommending for years. I will start this Tx and let you know if it works. I have run out of options and hope this is the answer...but it does make more sense then what I've been told for years!

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

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

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

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. ❤❤❤

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 horrrrrible 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!

I deal with PF a year and a half and the pain was horrible, it took me some months to recover, did lot of calf stretches and feet massages, I found very useful doing calf stretches before and after my runs and started wearing wide toebox shoes, I work at a office and can’t wear barefoot shoes, the dress code it’s very strict but if found local shoe makers can make me special shoes with a wide toe box and it’s been game changer.

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