| Plantar
Fasciitis (a cause of heel pain) is one of the most common injuries
that can result from over-pronation.
The plantar fascia is a fiberous tissue which surrounds the muscles
on the bottom of the foot. It anchors to the heel and the ball of
the foot and runs the length of the arch. |
|
Over-pronation
flexes the arch and strains the plantar fascia. Too much strain
can tear the plantar fascia, resulting in inflammation and extreme
heel pain. The main symptom of plantar fasciitis is pain around
the base of the heel and pain in the arch. The pain is usually at
its worst in the morning when first getting out of bed but in some
cases may persist all day long.

Relief recommends using arch supports to treat heel pain stemming
from Plantar
Fasciitis.
When used as directed, pain stemming from tears in the Plantar Fascia
tissue can be eliminated in weeks when treated with arch supports.
Other conventional treatments can take months to yield results, if
they yield results at all. |
