Hello WF,

So, i have had plantar fasciitis for about 10 years resulting from a over use of the feet kicking steps in the snow on a week long climbing trip.

Tried the expensive orthotics and now on to the inexpensive on line shoe arch supports. i have a very good arch.

(walking barefoot on the beach justs explodes the platar fasciitis even though i walk around the house in bare feet)

Now what i am trying to rid my feet of this problem is:

Soaking my feet in warm water with epson salt.

Massaging the bottom of the feet by standing and rolling a tennis ball.

Down Dog for about 5 minutes working the stretch.

Ice for about 5 plus minutes.

More massage with ball and or hands.

One more short session with warm water to warm the core back up.

 

Question: Is there another stretch to add to my routine that has worked for you.

Thanks for your time
