Plantar fasciitis involves the connective tissue supporting the arch of the foot, but improving foot function does not stop at the heel.

The foot, ankle, and hip work together to control movement and manage load with every step.

Here, Paul demonstrates a kinetic chain strengthener that engages the muscles supporting the foot and arch while recruiting the lateral hip stabilizers.

Building strength and coordination through these connected regions can improve lower-extremity control and help the body manage the demands of walking, running, and other daily activities.

Rather than focusing solely on the painful area, strengthening the entire kinetic chain can help improve movement control and build capacity for activity.

Combined with appropriate manual therapy and progressive loading, this approach can be a valuable part of managing plantar heel pain.

Plantar Fasciitis: More Than Heel Pain

Plantar fasciitis is a common source of heel pain, often most noticeable with the first steps in the morning or after periods of rest.

The plantar fascia is a strong band of connective tissue along the bottom of the foot that supports the arch and helps manage forces during walking, running, and other daily activities.

At Temple Human Performance, our approach balances massage and manual therapy with progressive loading to improve mobility, build strength, and increase the foot’s capacity to handle everyday demands.

We also look beyond the site of discomfort, considering how the calf, ankle, and hips work together to influence movement throughout the kinetic chain.

How we approach plantar fasciitis at Temple:

👐 Massage Therapy: Addressing muscular tension in the calf and surrounding tissues that may influence foot mechanics.

🤲 Manual Therapy: Improving relevant mobility restrictions in the foot and ankle to support more comfortable movement.

💪 Progressive Loading: Gradually building foot and calf strength to improve the ability to tolerate activity and manage physical demands.

🔗 Kinetic Chain Training: Developing coordination and control through the foot, ankle, and hip to support more efficient movement.

Research supports combining manual therapy for relevant joint and soft-tissue restrictions with progressive resistance exercise when managing plantar heel pain.

If heel pain is limiting your activities, call 865-288-4412 to schedule a session at Temple Human Performance and take the next step toward moving more comfortably.

The jaw plays an important role in chewing, speaking, and everyday function. When jaw mechanics, muscular coordination, or joint mobility are altered, clients may experience pain, restricted movement, clicking, or popping. These concerns are commonly associated with Temporomandibular Disorders (TMD).

At Temple Human Performance, we use manual therapy to address muscular imbalances around the jaw and improve coordination between the facial muscles, jaw, and neck.

In today's video, Paul demonstrates techniques focused on balancing the facial muscles surrounding the jaw to improve muscular coordination, support jaw alignment, and reduce discomfort. By addressing these muscular relationships, the goal is to improve neuromuscular control and encourage more efficient jaw movement.

A little fresh air in the Smokies, followed by a weekend of learning and great conversation. 🍂🌲

We started with a hike in the mountains before diving into topics surrounding pain, posture, and performance, exploring how the body moves, adapts, and responds to everyday demands.

At Temple Human Performance, we believe understanding your body is an important part of staying active, building strength, and continuing to do the things you enjoy.

Grateful for the time outdoors, the opportunity to keep learning, and a weekend well spent!

When we think about jaw tension, it’s easy to focus only on the jaw itself, but the surrounding structures of the head and neck deserve attention, too.

The sphenoid sits at the base of the skull and has important anatomical relationships with this region.

Gentle manual techniques can help us explore areas of tension and mobility as part of a broader approach to jaw and neck comfort.

This week, we’re continuing our conversation about TMD and the many factors that can influence how the jaw functions.

At Temple Human Performance, we take the time to consider the bigger picture and tailor each session to the individual.

If jaw tension or neck stiffness has been affecting you, contact us at 865-288-4412 to schedule a manual therapy session and learn how we can help.
