Plantar Fasciitis occurs when excessive subtalar joint pronation lowers the arch structure causing the foot to elongate and traction forces are placed on the plantar fascia, resulting in inflammation of the plantar calcaneal attachments, causing pain to be experienced.  Pain can be felt medially, laterally or in the centre of the heel.

To treat Plantar Fasciitis (the pre-cursor to the development of a heel spur) ICB Orthotics will aid in the correction and control of excessive pronation, thus restoring the foot’s natural arch and relieving traction forces.  In doing so ICB Orthotic therapy will aid in relieving associated heel pain and discomfort.  If the condition is treated in its early stages, it will help prevent a heel spur from developing.
