Plantar fasciitis can be caused by many things including fallen or weak arches. These stretches & exercises can help relieve the plantar fasciitis pain.

Gently stretching out the fascia under the foot can help prevent scarring and shortening of the muscles underneath the foot.

When performing the exercises, adding an arch lift to the movements will help strengthen the muscles to prevent falling of the arch. Seated heel/toe raises, and then progressing to standing exercises like mini squats and heel raises while keeping your arch lifted are great ways to strengthen those muscles.

Stretching the calf and soleus area are also great ways to loosen up the leg and foot area to help relieve the pain.
