Plantar fasciitis
The most common cause of heel pain
Plantar fasciitis, or more accurately fasciopathy, is the most common cause of heel pain, especially in runners and people who spend many hours on their feet.
It is characterised by pain with the first steps in the morning or after sitting down, which eases as you warm up and gets worse at the end of the day.
We have physiotherapists who specialise in the foot and ankle, and we combine shockwave therapy, invasive physiotherapy and loading exercise.
This treatment is for you if…
- Your heel hurts when you get up.
- The pain appears after sitting down.
- You run or spend many hours on your feet.
- You have had pain for months and nothing works.
We also assess your gait and your footwear.
