What Our Clients Are Saying

Frequently Asked Questions

Here are 5 common questions that are asked about Plantar Fasciitis.

What is Plantar Fasciitis?

Plantar fasciitis is the inflammation of the plantar fascia, a thick band of tissue that runs across the bottom of your foot. It typically causes heel or arch pain, especially in the morning or after periods of rest.

Common causes include overuse, poor foot biomechanics, flat feet or high arches, tight calf muscles, or inadequate footwear support during physical activities.

At Ripple Podiatry, we treat plantar fasciitis through a combination of therapies, including custom orthotics, shockwave therapy, stretching exercises, gait retraining, and manual therapy to reduce pain and inflammation.

Orthotics help relieve pressure on the plantar fascia and support your foot during recovery. However, they are one tool in a broader treatment plan designed to address the root cause of your heel pain.

Yes! Ripple Podiatry offers expert plantar fasciitis care at both our Hamilton East and Chartwell clinics, helping patients throughout the Waikato region get back on their feet—pain-free.
