NOT ALL FOOT PAIN HAS THE SAME CAUSE

Plantar fasciitis, heel pain, and arch pain can have different underlying causes. That's why we look beyond the painful area itself. Mobility restrictions, alignment, muscle imbalances, and problems involving the ankle, knee, hip, or lower back may affect the way you move and place additional stress on your feet.

Our goal is to identify what may be contributing to your pain so your treatment can be tailored to you.

  • Acute Inflammation: Early-stage symptoms may respond to conservative approaches such as rest, stretching, and appropriate anti-inflammatory care.
  • Chronic Tissue Irritation: Long-standing plantar fascia problems may require a different approach than acute symptoms. Treatment can focus on improving tissue mobility and addressing factors that continue to aggravate the area.
  • Biomechanical Stress: Flat feet, high arches, overpronation, tight calf muscles, and alignment or mobility issues involving the ankle, knee, hip, or lower back may contribute to excessive stress on the plantar fascia.

PATIENT TESTIMONIALS

What Our Patients Say

J.L.
“I came into Dr. Linn's office with a horrible limp. My diagnosis was severe plantar fasciitis. I had been in pain for six months and nothing seemed to help. I did not want cortisone shots, so I found Dr. Linn through a friend. Dr. Linn's treatment relieved my symptoms in about five weeks. I was finally able to walk normally again.”
G.L.
“I was suffering with heel pain for about three months from flat feet and a rotated hip. My previous treatment wasn't helping. Dr. Linn began working with my hip and foot and added soft tissue therapy and custom orthotics. The pain gradually subsided over about three and a half weeks. I was very pleased with my results, and the staff was very helpful as well.”
S.W.
“I stand on my feet most of the day and was diagnosed with plantar fasciitis. The pain lasted 11 months. I tried two cortisone shots and physical therapy without lasting improvement. After receiving foot adjustments, Graston therapy, massage, and taping, my pain improved from 7/10 to 3/10. I was able to work a full day without symptoms.”
