HOW CAN I RELIEVE PAIN AND DISCOMFORT FROM PLANTAR FASCIITIS?

 

One of the most common causes of heel pain is plantar fasciitis.

The pain occurs due to overstretching or repetitive loading of the plantar fascia (strong thick tissue that runs along the bottom of your foot), causing it to be inflamed over time.

Risk factors include high-intensity physical activities like running, which place lots of stress on the heel, being overweight, and having flat foot arches.

Those affected may experience a dull or sharp pain at the base of their foot.

Bauerfeind’s high-quality insoles with medical-grade supports target the symptoms of plantar fasciitis to provide optimal pain relief and protection.

Made with high-quality polyurethane foam, our insoles offer optimal cushioning and flexibility to help you stand or walk around for longer.

      Bauerfeind has formed a multi-functional foot orthosis that fits into multiple shoes for ease of functionality, including closed high heels.

      Combining firm and flexible elements in the orthotic core allows the foot to twist naturally, thus boosting active mobility.

      The interaction of the four side sections of the "weightflex-X" in the core assists the active resetting of the muscles and connective tissues and optimises the gait pattern.

      The ErgoPad WeightFlex 2 is ideal for those who stand on their feet all day.


       

      PERFORMANCE INSOLES HELP PREVENT PLANTAR FASCIITIS

      It's essential to prevent your feet from excessive strain when performing activities such as running. Running puts pressure on your feet, which can cause plantar fasciitis. 

      Our Performance Insoles help control the roll of your foot when you run, relieving pressure on the plantar fascia.


      CAN I WALK WITH PLANTAR FASCIITIS?


      Walking will definitely help with plantar fasciitis. While you may not be able to walk at the pace and distance that you did before having plantar fasciitis, you can slowly work up to your regular speed.

       

      HOW TO TREAT PAIN CAUSED BY PLANTAR FASCIITIS?

      • Rest. Give your feet plenty of rest to help ease the stress and tension being put on them.
      • Insoles and correct footwear. Orthotics and shoes with good support and cushioning will be highly beneficial.
      • Allied Health Professional Treatment. Your physiotherapist or podiatrist may prescribe specific stretching and strengthening exercises for you.
      • Anti-inflammatory medicines. Your doctor may prescribe medications to ease pain and inflammation
      • Severe or persistent symptoms should be investigated by your doctor or podiatrist.

        Play it safe: Consult a doctor if you experience unusually intense and persistent foot pain.
