Plantar fasciitis relief

Description

Plantar fasciitis, the heel pain caused by irritation of the connective tissue on the bottom of the foot, can be lingering and intractable. A new study, published in August in the Scandinavian Journal of Medicine & Science in Sports, finds that a single exercise could be effective. The upshot, said Michael Skovdal Rathleff, a researcher at Aalborg University in Denmark, who led the study, is that there was “a quicker reduction in pain” with the exercise program.
