Foot and Ankle Pain, Plantar Fasciitis
Ball Foot Massager
Using a ball massager is a helpful part of physical therapy for plantar fasciitis, as it stretches the inflamed plantar fascia and relieves tension along the bottom of the foot. The gentle massage often feels soothing during use, though for long-term results, consistency is key—daily use is recommended as part of your treatment routine.
Podiatrist Pro Tips:
- I prefer smooth balls, like these Lacrosse Balls, because they allow for firmer pressure and a deeper stretch. Spiked balls, on the other hand, often provide a less effective stretch and can be uncomfortable, leading some patients to stop using them.
- For added benefit, you can stick the ball in the freezer to combine cold therapy with your stretching routine, helping to reduce inflammation while promoting relief.
