What is Plantar Fasciitis?
Plantar fasciitis, often confused with general foot pain, is inflammation or irritation of the plantar fascia—a thick band of tissue that runs along the bottom of your foot, connecting your heel to your toes. This condition is particularly notorious for causing sharp, stabbing pain, especially with your first steps in the morning or after prolonged periods of inactivity.

Whether it’s through manual therapy, mobility training, or a full-body biomechanical assessment, our goal is to provide lasting relief and prevent future injuries.

We’re here to empower you with tools and strategies that work for your body—not just temporary fixes.

At ADAPT Recharge, we know that every case of plantar fasciitis is different. While these exercises can provide relief, they may not address the root cause of your condition. That’s why we offer a 100% FREE assessment with one of our experienced practitioners to help you figure out exactly what’s causing your pain. With personalized 1-on-1 physical therapy and chiropractic care focused on mobility training and manual therapy, we’re here to guide you every step of the way to a pain-free life.
