Plantar Fasciitis
5 Things i wish i`d known sooner

Struggling with Heel Pain? You’re Not Alone – And There Is a Way Forward
Plantar Heel Pain (Plantar Fasciitis) Treatment at Weaver Physio – Northwich, Cheshire
If you’re dealing with persistent heel pain that just won’t go away, this guide is for you. At Weaver Physio, we regularly help people who’ve battled plantar fasciitis for months—sometimes years—finally get lasting relief.
1. It’s Not Just a “Morning Pain” Problem
Heel pain isn’t just about those first few steps out of bed. For many, it lingers all day or flares up after activity. You’re not imagining it—and no, you’re not being dramatic. Plantar heel pain is a real, well-documented condition that responds well to the right treatment.
2. Total Rest Is Not the Solution
Complete rest may seem logical, but it often makes things worse. Instead, what works is gentle loading, targeted stretching, and progressive strengthening. Structured rehab is more effective than staying off your feet completely.
3. Supportive Footwear is Essential
Supportive shoes and insoles are part of the treatment—not optional extras. Walking barefoot on hard floors can aggravate symptoms. At Weaver Physio, we’ll help you find the right footwear and manage the transition safely.
4. One Fix Won’t Work – You Need a Multi-Layered Approach
Plantar heel pain is stubborn. Success usually comes from a combination of stretching, activity changes, footwear support, rehab exercises, and sometimes taping or short-term pain relief. Think layers, not quick fixes.
5. Early Physiotherapy Saves Time (and Frustration)
Waiting six months or longer often leads to more pain and delayed recovery. Early intervention with one of our MSK specialists can make a dramatic difference. Most people say the same thing after coming to Weaver Physio:
“I wish I’d come sooner.”

Don’t Let Heel Pain Take Over Your Life
If you’re altering how you walk, avoiding stairs, or dreading getting out of bed—get help. Left untreated, plantar fasciitis can affect more than just your foot. It can lead to knee, hip, or back issues as your body tries to compensate.
At Weaver Physiotherapy & Sports Injury Clinic, we’ll assess the root cause of your pain, create a personalised treatment plan, and guide you step-by-step to recovery.
