In this episode of the Premier Rehab and Training Podcast, I’m breaking down the five biggest myths about plantar fasciitis that keep people stuck in pain, no matter how many stretches, orthotics, or shoes they try.
After years of working with patients who’ve struggled with chronic foot pain — sometimes for years — I’ve learned what actually creates lasting relief. I’ll share what we’ve changed in our approach over the last few years that’s helped more than 80% of our patients not only get out of pain but return to hiking, running, and training without it coming back.
We’ll talk about why stretching your calves might actually make things worse, why barefoot or minimalist shoes aren’t always the magic solution they’re made out to be, and why plantar fasciitis isn’t really just a “foot problem.” I’ll explain how your posture, hips, and even your upper body play a huge role in how your feet function — and what happens when you learn to move differently.
You’ll also hear why strengthening or stretching alone won’t fix the issue if you don’t retrain how your foot actually interacts with the ground, and how to make sure that once the pain is gone, it stays gone even when you’re walking, running, or training hard again.
If you’ve tried everything and the pain keeps coming back, this episode will give you the clarity and direction you’ve been missing to finally move pain-free again.
