Plantar fasciitis: your body is eager to heal – so help it
“The natural healing force within each one of us is the greatest force in getting well.” – Hippocrates
I love that quote. There’s simplicity in it but also plenty of power. As you proceed with a plantar fasciitis recuperation campaign, you will need to pave the way, set yourself up for success, whatever cliche you want to use; your body will heal itself if the best possible environment is created in which to do so. So do whatever it takes to make this happen. Alter your behavior to avoid foot-aggravating activities; commit to your healing effort. Don’t skip strengthening and stretching sessions; don’t panic and give in to despair. Stay positive and stay on track. As you learn more about plantar fasciitis healing from the discussions here, just keep in mind the overriding theme of active recovery: the body can and will heal itself. You just have to promote healing and let it happen.
