Re: Plantar fasciitis physical therapy not effective

All of the PT you have noted can be helpful to some patients some times.
I suugest you see a podiatrist for further evaluation and treatment recommendations. Be sure to bring your running shoes as well as everyday shoes with you.
Most podiatrists can make a custom orthotic to control the abnormal forces on the plantar fascia. An evaluation of your gait as well as mechanics of your foot would be necessary.

The proprietary gel also provides extra protective padding to help comfort the pain caused by metatarsal soreness. May be used for relieving the burning sensation under the metatarsal heads, calluses and tarsal fat pads.
