Plantar Fasciitis Treatment in Mint Hill, NC
Plantar fasciitis is a debilitating condition that causes sharp, stabbing pain in the heel, especially during the first steps in the morning. At De-Lux Chiropractic in Mint Hill, NC, we offer innovative, drug-free solutions to help you overcome plantar fasciitis and get back on your feet.
What is Plantar Fasciitis?
Plantar fasciitis occurs when the plantar fascia—a thick band of tissue connecting the heel bone to the toes—becomes inflamed. This condition is common among athletes, runners, and individuals who spend long hours standing or walking.
How Chiropractic Care Can Help
Chiropractic care offers a holistic approach to managing plantar fasciitis by addressing the underlying causes and promoting healing. At De-Lux Chiropractic, our treatments include:
- Foot and Ankle Adjustments: Realigning the foot and ankle joints can reduce strain on the plantar fascia.
- Soft Tissue Therapy: Techniques like Graston or myofascial release help break up adhesions and improve blood flow.
- Custom Orthotics: We may recommend orthotics to provide arch support and reduce stress on the plantar fascia.
- Rehabilitation Exercises: Stretching and strengthening exercises are tailored to your condition to improve flexibility and stability.
- Posture Correction: Improving posture can alleviate pressure on your feet and prevent future issues.
- Dry needling: A therapeutic technique where the chiropractor inserts thin, solid needles into specific points in a muscle, called trigger points, to alleviate pain and improve muscle function by stimulating a healing response.
- Class IV Laser Therapy: A non-invasive treatment that uses a high-intensity laser to treat pain and inflammation, which facilitates regenerative healing.
