Relieve plantar fasciitis with osteopathy and massage therapy in NDG

Plantar fasciitis is a common cause of heel and ball of foot pain. This inflammatory disorder affects the plantar fascia, a band of tissue that supports the arch of the foot. Fortunately, natural approaches like osteopathy and therapeutic massage therapy can greatly help reduce pain and promote healing.

What is plantar fasciitis?

Plantar fasciitis often manifests as sharp pain in the heel, especially in the morning or after a period of rest. It affects runners , standing workers , and sedentary people alike. It is caused by excessive tension on the fascia, leading to micro-tears, inflammation, and sometimes the formation of a bone spur (heel spur).

Common symptoms:

• Sharp pain in the heel, especially when getting up

• Sensation of pulling under the arch of the foot

• Stiffness after a period of inactivity

• Increased pain after exertion

Plantar fasciitis: natural treatment in NDG

In Notre-Dame-de-Grâce (NDG) , I offer osteopathic and sports massage treatments to help relieve plantar fasciitis safely and sustainably. My approach combines manual techniques aimed at relaxing tense tissues, restoring muscle balance, and reducing inflammation.

How osteopathy can help :

Osteopathy considers the body to function as a whole. To treat plantar fasciitis, I assess not only the foot, but also the knee, hip, pelvis, and even overall posture. Tightness in the calf, a shorter leg, or pelvic misalignment can all contribute to overloading the plantar fascia.

Benefits of osteopathy for plantar fasciitis :

• Decreased pain

• Improved foot and ankle mobility

• Reduction of tension in the posterior chain

• Personalized treatment adapted to your posture and lifestyle

Therapeutic massage therapy for pain relief

As a complement to osteopathy, therapeutic massage therapy in NDG is an excellent option. Techniques such as deep tissue and fascia therapy can release tight muscles in the calf, foot, and fascia itself.

This type of treatment:

• Decreases muscle tension in the triceps surae (calf)

• Promotes blood circulation

• Accelerates the recovery of inflamed tissues

• Effectively complements osteopathic care
