Plantar fasciitis is one of the most common causes of heel pain, affecting millions of people each year—especially those who spend long hours on their feet. At Luxury Therapy & Ultrasound Center, we specialize in diagnosing plantar fasciitis using advanced ultrasound imaging, allowing us to detect inflammation early and tailor effective treatments.

🔍 What Is Plantar Fasciitis?

Plantar fasciitis is the inflammation of the plantar fascia, the thick band of tissue that runs along the bottom of your foot, connecting your heel bone to your toes. This inflammation causes stabbing pain, especially in the morning or after long periods of rest.

⚠️ Common Causes

• Standing or walking for long periods

• Wearing improper footwear

• Flat feet or high arches

• Obesity or rapid weight gain

• Tight calf muscles or Achilles tendons

• High-impact activities like running or jumping

📋 Symptoms to Watch For

• Sharp pain in the heel, especially with the first steps in the morning

• Pain that improves with movement but returns after standing or sitting

• Tenderness at the bottom of the foot near the heel

• Mild swelling in the heel

🖥️ How We Diagnose It

At Luxury Therapy & Ultrasound Center, we use musculoskeletal ultrasound imaging to accurately detect plantar fasciitis by visualizing inflammation, tissue thickening, or microtears in real time. This non-invasive method helps us diagnose early and avoid unnecessary imaging tests.

💆 Effective Physical Therapy Treatment

Our physical therapy treatments have been highly effective in relieving plantar fasciitis symptoms. Through therapeutic ultrasound and neuromuscular stimulation, combined with guided stretching and strengthening exercises, our patients experience significant pain relief and improved foot function.
