Can Massage Help Plantar Fasciitis?

That sharp pain underneath your heel when you take your first few steps in the morning can be difficult to ignore. It may ease once you start moving, only to return after a long day on your feet. This pattern is commonly associated with plantar fasciitis. It's one of the most recognised causes of heel pain in adults.

Massage may help manage the discomfort, but it is not an instant cure. Plantar heel pain usually responds best to a combination of approaches. That includes suitable activity, stretching, gradual strengthening and appropriate footwear.

Reflexology is one of the most popular complementary therapies in the UK, yet it's also one of the most misunderstood. Depending on who you ask, it's either a miracle treatment capable of curing almost anything or complete pseudoscience with no value at all.

Personally, I don't think either view tells the whole story.

Like many complementary therapies, reflexology has sometimes been overestimated, with claims that go far beyond the available evidence. At the same time, dismissing it entirely overlooks why so many people genuinely enjoy the treatment and choose to come back time and time again.

The truth, as is often the case, probably lies somewhere in the middle.

Never stop learning! Or petting your kitten. Gizmo perched near me, while I review this over a cup of coffee.

My haul of leaflets from Mind Body Soul Fayre I went to with Gemma Ralph
Neither of us thought of a picture 😅

But it has been fun. Met lovely people and found some good products. Looking forward to trying my new foot balm for reflexology and foot massage.

Gizmo took a liking to the postural imbalance. You can see little teeth marks there!

On some days the window has a guardian. If you see Loki loafing under the sign, don't hesitate to say hi. He loves watching people. He especially adores window cleansers 😁

How many times have you thought "I need to go for a massage"?

But you never did. You told yourself "it's not that bad yet" or maybe life got messy and you just didn't have enought time.
Maybe you couldn't justify spending that money on yourself? Maybe you had too many things to do, to find some time for yoursel

Life gets busy. Work comes first. The kids come first. The house comes first. And somehow, you end up at the bottom of the list.

Meanwhile, your neck is still stiff. Your shoulders still ache. Your back still reminds you every morning that something isn't quite right.

Sometimes we don't realise how much discomfort we've accepted until it's finally gone.
If you've been waiting for a sign... This is it.
