Plantar Fasciitis Treatment Jacksonville

Plantar fasciitis is one of the most common causes of pain in the heel. The condition occurs when the plantar fascia, which is a band of tissue that connects the toes to the heel bone and supports the arch of the foot, becomes irritated, swollen or weak. Plantar fasciitis causes a variety of uncomfortable symptoms, including pain in the foot when walking or standing, as well as swelling and stiffness. This condition is most common among middle-aged people, but it can also happen to younger people who spend a lot of time on their feet.

If you suffer from the symptoms of plantar fasciitis, you may benefit from chiropractic care. Chiropractic care focuses on rehabilitating the strained, swollen ligaments and surrounding soft tissue responsible for the pain and discomfort. By focusing on the root cause of the problem instead of the symptoms, chiropractic treatment effectively resolves the condition and prevents it from recurring. These treatments also aim to lengthen the muscles in the foot, which can improve mobility, alleviate pain and further reduce the chance of a recurrence of the condition.
