Pauly 1,212 Report post Posted July 29 I have been working some hella hours and my recovery time has been diminished. I broke down and paid a tiny Asian lady to beat the shit out of me for 90 minutes. She walked a mile on my back, ass, legs, arms and shoulders. Then she contorted my skeleton from my toes to my head until everything cracked and stretched. A good part of this work over was fairly painful because I had knots everywhere, but I feel like a new man today. Woke up with no body aches, except for my feet. Plantar fasciitis is looming in the left foot. I can feel that all day, every day. Today it was the least noticeable in long time. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

With daily stretches, they will mitigate the plantar fasciitis pretty quickly. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have them in my boots, but I bought a new pair and have not been home long enough to remember. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you don’t already, get a tennis ball(or any ball that’s roughly the same size). Use it to roll along the bottom of your foot for 10 minutes or so at a time. Gradually introducing more and more pressure as it allows. Do this a few times a week(the more the better) and it’ll be feeling better. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It does a great job. 10 minutes of that beauty and I feel decent. I just have a heavy load of tools I huck around all day, every day. It is starting to take a toll and I need to be mindful of my personal well being. I had PF when I was in my early 20s. It isn't that bad, yet. It took PT and 3 cortisone injections to cure that spell. Not interested in another round. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It isn't that bad, yet. It took PT and 3 cortisone injections to cure that spell. Not interested in another round. I used to have PF really bad. It made me quit athletic sports. I had a physical therapist diagnose the issue and give me some daily stretches. They were similar to the ones listed on this webpage: https://www.uofmhealth.org/health-library/tr5853 These excercises coupled with shoe inserts eliminated my PF. I picked up running half marathons shortly after recovering. I haven"t had issues in years, but I still use the inserts in all of my shoes & boots.
