The Plantar Fasciitis Doc

Why most plantar fasciitis treatments fail…

You bought the shoes.
Got the orthotics.
Did the stretches.
And you still have plantar fasciitis?

It’s not your fault, you just need a better approach.

Most solutions focus on adding more cushioning and support,
not restoring what your foot has lost: strength and function.

When the foot can’t tolerate load, pain sticks around.

There’s a smarter way forward.

Why does plantar fasciitis lasts SO LONG?

Because most treatments chase pain relief, not recovery.

Most plantar fasciitis lingers because the root cause is never addressed.

Rest, ice, injections, orthotics, and endless shoe changes may calm symptoms temporarily, but they don’t restore what’s missing.

Plantar fasciitis resolves when you rebuild:

• foot strength
• tissue resilience
• healthy load tolerance

When function returns, pain fades.

If your heel pain keeps coming back, it’s time for a different approach.

Most people are told the solution to plantar fasciitis is more support.


Thick cushioning. High arch support. Shoes that limit movement.
And sure, they may calm symptoms for a while…
but they’re not fixing the problem.


If ultra-supportive shoes were going to heal your feet, they would’ve done it by now. Right?


Instead, they make your feet weaker.


Your feet need mobility.
They need resistance.
They need strength.


That’s why recovery requires a gradual transition out of overly supportive shoes and into footwear that supports the natural shape of your foot, not restricts it.


Look for:


✔ Wide toe box
✔ Zero drop (no heel elevation)
✔ Freedom to move

How important are toe spacers for plantar fasciitis recovery?



Very important.



Toe spacers help restore natural toe alignment that’s often lost from years of conventional footwear.



That alignment matters because your toes play a key role in arch stability, balance, and force distribution through the foot.



When the toes can spread and function properly, the foot works more efficiently, and strain on the plantar fascia is reduced.



That’s why toe spacers are such a valuable tool in plantar fasciitis recovery program.


They support healthier movement patterns, improve foot mechanics, and help the foot do its job again.

My favorite part of treating plantar fasciitis isn’t just reducing your pain.

It’s watching you return to the things you thought you might never do again, walking without fear, exercising without hesitation, standing without bracing for pain.

Plantar fasciitis doesn’t just affect your feet. It quietly steals parts of your life.

Helping people rebuild strength, restore function, and move with confidence again will always be the most rewarding part of what I do.

👉 Shoes will not fix your plantar fasciitis!




Modifying your footwear is an important step, but changing your shoes is just the first step.




Targeting the weakness and deficiencies in your feet and lower leg by improving strength, mobility and soft tissue quality is the only way to produce lasting results.




👉 Plantar fasciitis devices for symptom relief




There are so many devices on the market that prey on plantar fasciitis sufferers.


Compression socks and sleeves, vibrating balls, massage guns, foot braces, night splints, supportive insoles and orthotics, and super cushiony sandals and shoes.


These are all tools meant to provide symptom relief, however, these passive approaches do nothing to improve strength, or make your foot more resilient.


👉 Here's what works



If you want to tackle this condition, get busy implementing my program.



It's not just about managing your symptoms, it's about empowerment, taking charge of your PF, and reclaiming your active life.

Most treatments for plantar fasciitis are attempts to reduce the load placed on the feet to manage symptoms.

To get lasting results, we actually need to increase the load to improve foot resilience to handle the load.

Passive approaches such as resting and avoiding movement, getting orthotics, and wearing super supportive shoes like Hokas or Brooks are meant to limit movement and reduce the stress on your feet.

However, this only further weakens your feet and leads to chronic PF.

The ONE thing that truly resolves PF is focusing on restoring normal foot function by improving strength, mobility, and making your foot more resilient.

Not robbing it of normal movement and function!

Things that decrease the load and limit normal mobility:

🚫 Orthotics
👟 Super supportive shoes with heavy cushioning & built-in arch supports
🧦 Compressive socks and sleeves
➡️ Night splints
👉 Resting from all activities

Things that increase load and strengthen your feet:

👟 Shoes that are shaped like your feet: wide toe boxes, zero drop
😊 Shoes with less stack height (amount of cushioning)
🦶 Barefoot walking with toe spacers
💪 Targeted strengthening exercises

What would you rather have?

Weak feet that rely on external devices to function, or strong, resilient feet?

Silly question, right?

If your plantar fasciitis still isn’t improving, you’re probably not doing anything “wrong.”

You’ve just been given outdated advice. Most people are!

Here are the 5 biggest mistakes I see, and they’re the exact things keeping people stuck in the PF cycle:

❌ Wearing the wrong shoes
❌ Relying on orthotics long-term
❌ Resting or avoiding movement
❌ Stretching instead of strengthening
❌ Icing the foot

PF isn’t a rest problem — it’s a load problem.

Your fascia doesn’t recover from being supported, it heals from being strengthened and retrained.

If you’re tired of hobbling out of bed every morning, feeling confused, or trying every “quick fix” out there, I've got a solution for you.

👉 You can recover.
👉 Your feet are not fragile.
👉 You just need the right plan.

My program walks you through the exact step-by-step system to rebuild foot strength, restore mobility, and finally get rid of PF for good.

If you’ve ever been told that you have plantar fasciitis because you have flat feet, be sure you read this.

That advice is incomplete, and in many cases, flat-out wrong.

Flat feet are actually normal.

And having flat feet does not mean you’re destined to develop plantar fasciitis.

In fact, some of the strongest, most pain-free feet I treat are completely flat.

And some of the most painful feet I see, have higher arches.

So clearly… something doesn’t add up.

After treating thousands of plantar fasciitis cases, here’s what I know to be true:

It’s not the height of your arch that determines whether you’ll develop PF. It’s the strength and function of your arch.

Unfortunately, most people with flat feet are given advice that actually makes their feet weaker over time.......

Things like rigid arch supports, over-supportive shoes, and avoiding movement.

Plantar Fasciitis Morning Heel Pain?


Ever wonder why your heel pain is always WORSE first thing in the morning?
It’s because while you sleep, your feet naturally point downward , which shortens your calves, Achilles tendon, and plantar fascia.


👉 Then the second you step out of bed, those tight tissues are suddenly stretched under load… and that’s what causes the sharp, stabbing morning pain of plantar fasciitis.


The Fix: Wake up your fascia before your feet hit the floor. Spend just 3 minutes before getting out of bed.


1. Roll your foot on a ball for one full minute: releasing the bound up fascia.

2. Perform ankle pumps: straigthen your legs. Point your toes, then pull them up toward your head. Pumping your ankles 30 seconds.

3. Seated calf raises: sit on the edge of the bed and perform 10-15 calf raises.


Try this 3-step morning routine, and tomorrow morning you’ll feel the difference.


Put the word "GUIDE" in the comments and I'll send you my roadmap to resolve PF at home that includes this morning warm-up strategy.
