If any of this sounds familiar, you're not alone — and it's exactly what we help patients with, every day.
Inflammation and micro-damage to the plantar fascia — the band of tissue running along the sole of the foot — typically causing sharp heel pain that's worst first thing in the morning.
Bony growths that can develop on the heel bone, often associated with chronic plantar fasciitis, and sometimes contributing to ongoing pain even after the initial fascia irritation has settled.
Pain and stiffness affecting the Achilles tendon at the back of the heel, often linked to overuse, training load, or tightness in the calf muscles.
Long-standing, degenerative changes to the plantar fascia resulting from repeated strain without adequate recovery, often requiring a different treatment approach to acute inflammation.
Foot and heel pain linked to training load, footwear, or biomechanics, common in runners and athletes in high-impact sports.
Foot pain linked to gait, foot posture, or biomechanical imbalance, often contributing to plantar fasciitis or related conditions developing in the first place.
Plantar fasciitis is one of our clinic's specialities, and an area we have long, successful experience treating. We're frequently recommended by local GP surgeries as a first line of intervention, precisely because generic advice — rest, stretching, new insoles — so often isn't enough to properly resolve it on its own.
We start with a thorough assessment of your foot mechanics, gait, and the specific tissue involved, to understand exactly why the fascia has become irritated in the first place. As part of your treatment, we offer both radial and focused shockwave therapy — widely regarded as the gold-standard intervention for chronic plantar fasciitis — included at no extra cost as part of your treatment plan, alongside hands-on manual therapy and a structured rehabilitation and stretching programme to address the underlying biomechanical factors contributing to your pain.
