What is Plantar Fasciitis

Plantar Fasciitis is a foot condition caused by inflammation. This inflammation occurs within the tissue that connects your heel bone to your toe bones. When this inflammation flairs up it runs across the entire base of your foot. 

Common Reasons for Plantar Fasciitis

People who are runners, as well as ballet and aerobic dancers, are more likely to develop plantar fasciitis because of the increased pressure on the ball of the foot. However, it is also commonly noted in patients who are overweight. Additionally, wearing shoes that are not supportive can increase your risk of developing plantar fasciitis.

Patients who are diagnosed with this foot pain are typically between 40 and 60 years old. People of certain occupations including factory line workers and teachers are more likely to suffer from plantar fasciitis because of the extended time standing on the job.

Symptoms of Plantar Fasciitis

How do you know if you have plantar fasciitis? Since this foot pain in Santa Barbara does not have any outward lesions or indicators, you will have to pay attention to this pain. It feels like a stabbing pain in your heel area.

In general, patients report having more of this pain soon after they get out of bed after sleeping, or after sitting for a long period of time. For individuals who play sports or exercise, they tend to have more pain after they have finished, but not while participating in an activity.

How Chiropractic Care Treats Plantar Fasciitis 

Chiropractic treatments focus on realigning the musculoskeletal system. This can help alleviate ligament pain in the foot that is associated with plantar fasciitis. By getting chiropractic care for your foot pain in Santa Barbara, you can avoid foot surgery or prescription painkillers. We offer a natural, effective form of foot pain relief that treats the injured ligament, rather than masking the injury.
