Evidence-based treatment protocol for plantar fasciitis (heel pain)

Our plantar fasciitis (heel pain) protocol combines the six most evidence-supported interventions in the peer-reviewed physiotherapy literature. Each is progressed based on your objective outcome measures, not guesswork.

1
Eccentric heel-drop protocol (Alfredson-style)
2019 systematic review: superior outcomes to concentric strengthening alone.
2
Plantar-fascia stretching with towel + morning routine
Directly reduces the first-step morning pain — the hallmark symptom.
3
Dry-needling of medial gastrocnemius trigger points
Tight calf is present in 83% of plantar fasciitis cases — needling accelerates release.
4
Low-Dye taping + arch support prescription
Immediate off-loading of the plantar fascia during walking / running.
5
Manual mobilisation of the talocrural joint
Restores dorsiflexion which is the biomechanical driver of plantar-fascia strain.
6
Progressive return-to-loading (walking → jogging → jumping)
Rebuilds tendon load-tolerance without re-injury.

Objective outcome measures we track

Every fifth session we re-measure the following validated instruments and share the trajectory with you. This is what evidence-based physiotherapy looks like — not vibes.

  • Foot Function Index (FFI)
  • Numeric Pain Rating Scale (first-step morning pain)
  • Ankle dorsiflexion goniometry
  • Windlass test
