Running Form Correction: Plantar Fasciitis / Foot Pain

I invite you to contact me to discuss coaching or long-distance Skype coaching options: http://radiantrunning.com/contact/sky.... Douglas Wisoff Physical Therapist and running coach demonstrates how the "Healing on the Run" methods helps runners and walkers with their running form and posture, to overcome this most common foot pain condition: Plantar Fasciitis is a very common injury for runners as well as other athletes and non-athletes. It is a thickening, tightness and, at times, inflammation of the fascia on the bottom of the foot. It tends to have a focal point of tenderness at the medial aspect of the Calcaneous (or heel bone). What makes this injury so unpleasant is that you have to walk and run on it. Causes and Considerations: How a person walks or runs is an important consideration in healing PF. Often, but not always, there is a heel strike in walking that is a product of an anterior pelvic tilt (you will see the pelvis tipped forward and an exaggerated curve in the low back). With the anterior pelvic tilt, the hips are already flexed and so the hip flexor is in a state of contraction at rest. When walking or running instead of getting stride length from hip flexion, the quad is fired in the swing phase to get stride length from hyper-extension at the knee. I have found that people who are vulnerable to problems with their feet have often walked with this heel striking pattern for most of their lives, and so the muscles and other connective tissue in the bottom of the feet is weakened. Other foot injures that respond well to Running Form Improvement: heal pain, arch pain, Morton’s Neuroma, Posterior Tibialis tendonitis, pain in the ball of the foot, pain on the top of the foot, Jogger’s Foot. There are specific focuses that can be used to help heal specific injuries. Contact Douglas for more information. Subscribe:    / @douglaswisoff   Follow on Facebook:   / radiantrunning
