Plantar Fasciitis in Runners - Hello Physio Singapore

Introduction

Welcome to Hello Physio Singapore, your trusted destination for high-quality health and medical services. Our expertise lies in sports medicine and physical therapy, ensuring that we can help athletes and individuals alike overcome the challenges of injuries and conditions such as plantar fasciitis.

Understanding Plantar Fasciitis

Plantar fasciitis is a common condition that affects many runners. It is characterized by pain and inflammation in the plantar fascia, a thick band of tissue that connects the heel bone to the toes. The condition typically causes stabbing pain in the bottom of the foot, especially during the first steps in the morning or after long periods of rest.

The team at Hello Physio Singapore understands the impact that plantar fasciitis can have on your running performance and overall well-being. Our goal is to provide personalized treatment plans that target the root cause of your condition, allowing you to recover quickly and get back to doing what you love.

Prevention and Treatment

Preventing plantar fasciitis is crucial, especially for runners who rely on their feet for their athletic endeavors. Here are some tips to help you minimize the risk:

• Proper Footwear: Invest in running shoes that provide adequate arch support and cushioning to reduce the strain on your plantar fascia.
• Warm-up and Stretching: Engage in dynamic warm-up exercises and perform regular stretching routines to prepare your feet and lower limbs for running.
• Gradual Training Progression: Avoid sudden increases in running intensity or mileage. Gradually build up your distance and speed to allow your body to adapt.
• Strength and Conditioning: Incorporate exercises that target the muscles in your feet and calves to improve their strength and stability.

If you're already experiencing symptoms of plantar fasciitis, our expert physical therapists and sports medicine specialists can provide comprehensive treatment options tailored to your specific needs:
