Plantar Fascia Exercises 

Started over a year ago on a daily basis and I've been 100% ever since. Passed it on to several friends. Thanks a million...God is using you to help LOTS of sufferers.🙌

Ok, I've had PF for over 6 months, and it was getting worse - I was in miserable pain all day, every day. But I'm 4 days in, and I'm already feeling SO much better. I've tried all sorts of things to get some pain relief but this 6.30 is an absolute game changer! I do these and one extra stretch (a gentle lunge type stretch for the hamstring) and I can already feel I'm now in a healing phase. No meds, no chiropodist fee, no yikes when I get up from sitting and I can do my morning walks again. Thank you SO much for this, its changed my health!

You have kind eyes, and a warm toned voice. Both of those things would make me feel at ease if you were my physical therapist. Aside from your knowledge and skill, having people relate to you and feel empathy is an important part of your line of work. You’ve got it!

This has been a god send. Thank you for this. Two weeks of constant pain gone in 10 minutes sure it comes back but the break from constant pain has given me so much joy.

This is 2018 and I have found after reviewing a lot of videos for planter and arch problems. Pat..yours is still the best. Its effective and provides immediate relief. I've been doing these exercises for 3 weeks now. And My planter is all but gone. I still do them for maintenance. I've also been to a chiropractor to get adjustments. If you have chronic Planter F This is the one!! Thanks a million!.. And one hint people..You gotta actually do these exercises every morning. Ice and anti-inflams help also.

I was diagnosed with Plantar Facitis on both feet 👣they gave me 3 cortisone shots and a pair of boots and out the door bye and pay 85.00 . As much as I wanted the Podiatrist to give me suggestions. He wasn’t having the time. But I decided to do my own searching. Found this on RU-vid. I also found red LED lights. And Hollistic approach. I do now understand how important it is to stretch those feet in the morning before getting off bed. It’s still too early for me to say that it’s working but I be back to let everyone know it did. I also order socks that help and inserts. But thank you for your video. 🙏♥️

Thanks these really worked. I did these about 3 times yesterday, for the first time. Today I have zero pain. I’m going to keep doing these. And see my doctor on Monday. Thank you so much!!!

It worked wonders🙏🏻thank you so much for sharing it. I was not even able to walk properly due to pain in my heels but Just after doing it 2-3 times I felt the pain getting less ...may God bless you. Keep up the good work 👍🏻.

Hola Pat tengo fascia plantar y mi doctor me mostró tu video para que haga tus ejercicios empezaré mañana 16😢 de febrero 2024 te iré contando los resultados gracias

Thank you for explaining it without being extra. This video was extremely helpful.

I noticed a benefit in just 2 days of doing these! I've kept it up and it has really reduced the pain in my heel!

Thank you so much! I am no athlete, but a 61 year old woman working two standing jobs, and when the pain in my left foot first started I was told this would be chronic - never go away. I was afraid I was going to have to quit work. Just the first two exercises for a week were enough to make the pain recede to a bearable level. So and now I am doing them all on both feet every day as preventative care, and now it only occasionally gets bad late in the day. In the meantime, I have met several people also suffering from this issue and have referred them to your video for relief! :-)

I have been annoyed with plantar fasciitis for the past 6 months and have gone through 3 sets of different exercises, massage, tapings, night splint (Strassburg Sock) and orthotics with no change. The 2nd day I did these exercises, exactly as described prior to my first step, I found relief for 1/2 day. The 3nd day I found relief all day by doing the exercises again at midday. YAHOO!!! Remarkable. Thanks Pat Stanziano

Enjoyed this and will try to regular in doing this...Thank you...choice from New Zealand

Thank you for this from Finland.

This actually helped. Thanks for posting.

Already feeling much relief after doing these exercises for the first time. Looking forward to progressing. Thank you, Pat!

Been doing these exercises for 10 days and after a week, the pain in my big toes is almost zero AND I have started to feel connection to my glutes.

Have tried other things since I've only had this for about 2 months but have tried your suggestions for about five days and have found 80% relief!! Am going to keep doing it for a few more weeks. I can literally get up in the middle of the night now without being in agony. Thanks!!

Thanks Pat. Your 6/30 exercises have really helped. I've gone from lame to 80% in just a few days. No meds, no devices, no MD. As an aging athlete I still intend to stay proactive about exercise, but realistically must expect some bumps in the road like this from time to time. I'll consider your channel a valuable resource when the going gets tough -- and the tough get going! Gratefully, Dan

I’m crying 😭 it feels so much better after the first go

This is by far the best plantar fasciitis exercise on You Tune right now, and I’ve checked out many of them. Thank you, you’ve really helped! Subscribed too!

Awesome video LOVED IT ! it gave me so much relief instantly . Thank you so very much

Beautiful.. exclusive n effective ways to solve this issue. Found it really different from all other RU-vids. Thanks a lot.

Started dding these exercises yesterday and my pain level is already MUCH less! I am doing them three times a day as my pain is severe. Extremely hopeful. THank you

Great informative video

Very helpful, informative, and easy to do! Thanks!

Just a little note I have been doing your heal spur excrcises in the morning and what a difference THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU ????!!!!!!

You are a legend sir.

Thank you! These help 😊👍

This great. I was just diagnosed and will do this. I cant wait to get rid of most if not all the pain. Thank you for posting

Great video here Pat. straight to the point or shall I say Points! I have been doing these simple yet effective exercises for about a month now. Have noticed marked improvement in my foot pain. I walk a lot in my job. And have also invested in some great walking shoes as well. 10 stars!

thank you so much!

Only 2 nites and i have no pain. Thank you so much because i was getting really scared.

Very short explanations for the exercises and straight to the point ( not like some that suffer with verbal diarrhea’) congratulation

Thank you so much for the video and the instructions. Your exercise treatment really help relieve the terrible pain associated with plantar fasciitis. I ended up getting a brace to wear at night and a compression sock for the daytime. Finally, I'm pain free after 4-5 months of limping around every day. Again, Thank you

This was greatly helpful. Pain has alleviated but still do the excercises for maintenance and great way to start the day.

This works like miracle , instant relief !

Thank alot .for this program

thanks for the video. !

this was very good to see.... thank you

Great video

Hello Pat! Thank you for your wonderful simple exercises which has helped me immensely! After doing these 6 exercises regularly for a couple of months n opting for Sketchers, I can feel the difference..i came upon your video by chance and I know in my heart it was an answer to my prayers as I couldnt walk without excruciating pain for over 2 years. Even my ortho failed to detect this condition. May God bless you Pat. I direct even strangers who suffer from PF to ur video. Stay Blessed n thank you for posting! Best wishes

جزاك الله خيرا خير الجزاء 1000 Merci

Thank you so much! Praying this helps. The pain had gotten increasingly worse and it hurts to put any weight on my left heel at all.

Thank you very much

Muchas gracias

1) Start by sitting on the ground, legs flat out in front of you. 2) Loop a strap around the ball (at the front pad) of the foot and gently pull the strap tight towards you, keeping the legs straight. 3) Only pull until you feel a gentle stretch, then hold the position for roughly thirty seconds. Breathe gently throughout. 4) Relax for 30 seconds and repeat 3-5 times.

Parei com inflamatórios e fiquei no alongamento e massagem com a bolinha. Estou melhorando devagar mas progressivamente. .

Thank you

was having heel pain from past 3 months but I ignored that. 3 days ago I searched for heel pain treatment. I found some of the videos about stretching Exercises and Icing. I followed the videos. I did stretching and icing and believe me or not, my pain cured the third day.

Awesome! Ty so much!!!

Very much helpful ⭐

Love your foot arch

You are a Saint. Thank you for showing us this. I am starting to attack my P-F. I had my first ever PF experience on 3-28-2021, and I fear throughout the day (even up to 4-16-2021) any single sharp pain like that again. I bought me new shoes, got a night brace, and just got a wrap from Amazon today. GD that fucking hurt. So, when I feel better, I will try to do what you have said. I just want it to get better. I can't believe how painful it is. Here are my past RU-vid comments ... * -- I just had an episode last night for first time, and it was SO INCREDIBLY PAINFUL. I thought that I had nerve damage or broke my heel. I am not one to feel pain too intensely, but this was like STEPPING ON A LAND MINE. So, I went to Urgent Care, was finally seen, and they diagnosed it as this. So, I plan to be aggressive and heal it. * -- Yes, it is DAMNED TERRIFYING walking on it. I just had one morning on 3-28-2021 where I had my first experience with P-F. And, GD, I've never felt so much pain. I wanted to go to Emergency Room, because I didn't know what it was. It felt like a Land-Mine, seriously. But, BCBS talked me into Urgent Care, and they diagnosed P-F. Never even heard of it. But, my gosh, I hate to be in your camp now, but it looks like I'm going down same path as you. I hope it gets better, and I hope it doesn't take a FREAKING 10 months to get better.

Thank you🙏

Thank you so much pat I was feeling hell pain in the morning I did and feeling relaxed how many times should we do each exercise please can someone explain ?

All the best from Dubai

Hearing some Reel Big Fish in the background there! Thanks for the video

Good god thank you so much for this, it's helped a lot with my pain. I'm on my feet all night at work and in the morning my feet and knees are killing me. These exercises help a lot.

Thanks a lot from Slovakia. It's helpful.

This helped me a lot. Much less pain now.

The last exercise hurts, to varying extents, while I do it. Does that matter? Should I keep doing it anyway?

I've been doing these exercises every morning for over a month now, and although I've had tremendous relief of my heel pain and am able to now run my 3 miles every weekday, I still have minimal pain, mostly later in the day. Someone told me that this heel pain/fasciitis will last 8-9 months, no matter what you try! I hope they're correct because I'm entering my 6th month with this condition! I'll keep you posted and if anybody has any comments on this, please add them. thanks

Another great one is to step on the ball of your foot and slowly lower your heel to the ground. If you don't feel it, tilt your toes a little either inward or outward and try again I'm that position. It's helped me a lot. I don't feel any stretch at all from #4 :(

Tq i will be try good excercise

awesome video thanks

Thank you I felt relief by the next day

the greatest info that ive ever had was by following the Plantar Premium Plan (just google it) without a doubt the most incredible resource i've tried.

I had terrible sharp heal pain in the left foot in the morning. I started massaging it by digging the hurt area of the heal into the edge of a foam rubber Nike sandal, to soften it up. It hurt as I did it, but I kept doing it, about an hour a day. Pain went away in a few weeks. Two years later, still good. Now my right foot is in pain in the arch, so now I have a roller to massage and stretch the arch, made by "go fit". After one day its feeling better. Hopefully this massaging works.

Thank you so much for this video. I have already done round one, and will continue to do so. Hopefully this will relieve the problem. :-) happy new year.

I'd pee my pants before I got these half finished.

Thank you very much. This really helped me with my heel spur.

Chiropractor fixed it in two visits. Had it for almost a year. Commenting this on all videos. Because I would spend hours watching RU-vid videos to try to figure out how to fix it.

Its very painful ...thanks for video...

Great exercises It will help me to start my day, thanks for this informative video.

Beautiful

Amazing results. My feet were killing me last night and have been hurting for months.

Yes my feet are back hurting a year later. Need it

Thank you so much for this video! It help tremendously.

Thank you for your exercises. They worked for me.

Thaaank you :) , That's really help me. I will do those exercises every morning before i get out of bed. reallllllly thank you for ur advice

thank you very much surely going to try these exercises

Excellent ideas Thanks.

Gracias por por tus ejercicios y consejos. Me siento mejor.

Thank you! Very Informative.

Thank you for your explanation. So meaningful!

tips are so useful. Thank you

Thanks 👍

1.use a cold can or a cold bottle instead of a ball 2. Use a belt to pull towards you and hold it for 8-10 secs 3. stand on your toes for 6-8 secs and repeat . These excercises repeated a few times daily will inshallah cure the foot pain problem

Had this horrible condition and suffered from it for around 2 years... till one night I switched to sleeping on my tummy and it went away the next morning. I guess it could be the way the arch is bent that solved it... but in a way its the opposite of the stretches recommended by the doctors and physios (which did give me temporary relief but never solved it ). Never looked back ... people who find it difficult breathing when lying on their tummy are not recommended to try this. Cheers.

Great video I am going to give this a try... THANKS!!! Only thing that would make this any better would be a downloadable PDF... Hmmm maybe on your site... Will check that out next. ;)

Thanks for sharing . I'm suffering from this for 5 long years and it getting worse...I had no idea what it exactly is ...I'll try this
