Our Chiropractic Plantar Fasciitis Treatment Options
Plantar fasciitis can cause severe foot pain, inflammation, and mobility problems that significantly decrease your quality of life. Visiting a chiropractic foot doctor can help you find relief without the use of prescription medication or invasive procedures. At Chiro-Med Health Center, our chiropractor Dr. Jennifer Tinoosh specializes in diagnosing, evaluating, and treating plantar fasciitis in Lynchburg, VA.
Lower Back Adjustments
Your lumbar spine plays a huge role in the health of your feet. Lower back adjustments can correct spinal misalignments and dysfunction that contribute to plantar fasciitis symptoms and foot pain.
Posture Correction
Dr. Tinoosh can evaluate your posture and determine if poor posture is increasing foot pain and other plantar fasciitis symptoms. She can help you improve your posture and build core strength to better support your lumbar spine and improve balance and mobility.
Physical Therapy
Physical therapy can enhance core muscle strength and improve your balance and mobility. By relieving pressure on your lower back, hips, and feet through posture correction and physical therapy, Dr. Tinoosh can also help you find relief from foot pain and other symptoms of plantar fasciitis. Therapeutic exercises and stretches can also lengthen the plantar fascia and make it more flexible so that it is protected from further damage.
Lifestyle Modification and Workplace Ergonomics
Dr. Tinoosh may suggest you make key lifestyle modifications to find relief from symptoms of plantar fasciitis. She may suggest changes to your diet and exercise routine, adjustments to your posture, changes to your sleep habits, and the addition of supplements to your diet. She will also help you learn to prevent repetitive stress and overuse injuries that could worsen foot pain and other symptoms of plantar fasciitis.
Custom Orthotics
Custom orthotics are shoe inserts that are customized to your specific foot shape and needs. Dr. Tinoosh may recommend custom orthotics to add extra support and cushioning to your foot and correct spinal alignment and improve posture and balance. Orthotics can ease foot pain and inflammation and prevent further damage to the plantar fascia.
Terahertz Blue Light Therapy
Terahertz blue light therapy is a drug-free, non-invasive treatment method for chronic pain, inflammation, and repetitive stress injuries. During the treatment, Dr. Tinoosh will direct electromagnetic waves to the plantar fascia using a small, handheld device. As these waves penetrate deep within your soft tissues, they stimulate biological healing processes throughout the body. This treatment option improves circulation, stimulates tissue and cell regrowth, accelerates the healing process for damaged tissues and nerves, and relieves foot pain and inflammation.
