Plantar Fasciitis Treatment in Arlington, WA
Plantar fasciitis is irritation of the thick band of tissue along the bottom of your foot. It often starts with an arch that collapses and rolls inward, pulling on that band with every step. We check how your feet, ankles and legs move, then support the arch and ease the strain so the tissue can heal.

Treatment Options
Care We Use for Plantar Fasciitis
Can a Chiropractor Help Plantar Fasciitis?
Often, yes. We look at the foot and everything above it, because flat feet and the way your legs turn can keep the tissue irritated. Custom orthotics, chiropractic care and stretches work together to take the pull off the arch.
Do Orthotics Help Plantar Fasciitis?
For many people, yes. Orthotics made from a scan of your feet support the arch, so the plantar fascia is not stretched with every step. Store insoles add cushioning, but they are made for an average foot.
What Makes Plantar Fasciitis Worse?
Going barefoot on hard floors, worn-out shoes with no arch support, long hours standing and pushing through sharp heel pain. Ask us which stretches suit your feet before you start.
