Plantar Fascia Pain ✨ Earlier in the week Chris

Plantar Fascia Pain ✨

Earlier in the week Christine showed us a tape job that is helpful for Plantar Fascia pain. The same tape job can also be used for shin splints(MTSS).

In both shin splints and plantar fasciitis the functional integrity of the foot is compromised - the intrinsic muscles that stabilize the arch are unable to support the forces being place through it.

By adding a stretch tape to the arch and plantar fascia you can help facilitate the intrinsic muscles of the foot to contract while also adding a small mechanical lift. Use taping along with your rehab exercises to maximize the benefits - or check out our barefoot training insoles.

Yoga is an important part of my self care routine. I am an active person with an active job and I do not do well with slowing down. Yoga helps me to slow down my life, improve my breathing and mental health, it also strengthens my body while improving my mobility.

I love it because it can be done anywhere, I can easily modify the length to fit it into my day, it is great for recovery and therefore is a great compliment for my strength and cardio routines.

We put our bodies through a lot each day, ensuring proper recovery and mobility is key to preventing injury!

Plantar Fascia Taping ✨ The Plantar Fascia is a

Plantar Fascia Taping ✨

The Plantar Fascia is a band of connective tissue that runs along the bottom of the foot. It is often irritated by changes - in footwear, training, surface and biomechanical weakness. The Plantar Fascia supports the bones of the foot and absorbes the forces we put through on each step. 👟🦶

Taping is one tool we can use to help support the arch from dropping and promote the muscles in the foot to contract and stabilize. Taping is a great short term intervention while we work to strengthen the intrinsic muscles of the foot and stabilize through the entire chain of the leg.🦵🦶🦵🏼🦶🏼🦵🏾🦶🏿

📌2-3 strips of k-tape pulling from the outside of the foot and lifting the arch

Give it a try!
