Massage therapy is one of the best treatments for plantar - TopicsExpress



          

Massage therapy is one of the best treatments for plantar fasciitis after the initial inflammation has subsided. Although its a wonderful option, you dont necessarily need to see a massage therapist to take care of this. Just taking the time to massage your own foot (feet) each day will loosen muscle tissue, remove muscle toxins and increase the circulation of blood and oxygen to the injured area. This is especially helpful in the morning upon waking up when the fascia has tightened back up (shortened) during rest. The more you can massage the injured fascia throughout the day, the better! The Spiky Massage Ball by Pro-Tec seen above is a great tool for this. The spikes not only feel good on those sore feet, but offer a stimulating effect that increases blood flow. This also helps curb the build up of scar tissue in the area and will lead to faster healing.
