Buy the Plantar Fasciitis WorksheetPlantar fasciitis (PF) is when tissue on the bottom of the foot gets irritated and inflamed. This can be very painful, and sometimes people have a difficult time walking due to the pain. Pain is often worse in the morning when first walking. The pain can be in the bottom of the foot, the arch of the foot, and/or the heel.

Starting off with stretches and active movements to loosen everything up around the foot and ankle, a calf stretch, plantar fascia stretch, and seated heel/toe raises will help relieve pressure in the lower leg and foot.

Finally, a standing calf stretch with a towel roll will really focus on the plantar fascia and help loosen it up to decrease the pain.
