Question: If I have plantar fasciosis, would any of these treatments really help, since that means the tissue is dead?

Hi, Donna,

That’s a great question! What you’re hoping to achieve in applying the treatments mentioned in this video is to reduce the pressure on the vasculature that brings blood to the plantar fascia and clear metabolic byproducts that otherwise accumulate and cause pain. If given the chance, the body will act swiftly and powerfully to heal itself, and that goes for the tissues of the plantar fascia.

I hope this info is helpful!

Kind regards,
Marty Hughes, DC
