Plantar Fasciitis

Feeling sharp heel pain with your first steps in the morning or after long periods of standing? You may be suffering from Plantar Fasciitis, one of the most common causes of heel pain. At Theracave, we provide personalized physical therapy for Plantar Fasciitis—focused on reducing inflammation, relieving pressure on the foot, and restoring natural movement and comfort.

The plantar fascia is a thick band of tissue that runs across the bottom of your foot, connecting your heel to your toes. When this tissue becomes irritated or inflamed, it leads to pain that can make walking, running, or even standing uncomfortable. Early treatment is key to stopping the cycle of pain and preventing long-term foot dysfunction.

Q&A

Plantar Fasciitis is inflammation of the plantar fascia, the tissue that supports your foot arch. Repetitive strain or stress causes microtears, leading to heel pain and stiffness—especially in the morning or after rest.

Yes. Most cases can be treated successfully with conservative methods such as physical therapy, stretching, activity modification, and proper footwear. Surgery is rarely needed and only considered in chronic, unresponsive cases.

With consistent treatment, most people improve within 6–8 weeks. However, more severe or long-standing cases may take several months. Early intervention typically leads to faster and more complete recovery.

Absolutely. Physical therapy helps by stretching the plantar fascia and surrounding muscles, strengthening foot and ankle support, improving flexibility, and correcting poor movement patterns or gait issues that contribute to the pain.
