Plantar Fasciitis

plantarFor my dancers..... a little more information about Plantar Fasciitis and how to stretch/strength with corrective exercises (NYSSSA students: these look VERY similar to the ones we explored this summer!)  The National Academy of Sports medicine highlights the who, what, when, and why of this dysfunction and my blog post in August shares more information as well.

If you're someone who wears high heels on a daily basis, I might recommend doing these as preventative care exercises.  Invest in a good pair of supportive shoes for walking those long commutes in NYC and keep your feet healthy for overall kinetic chain health.  A foot injury will impact the entire body... from the bottom up!
