What does pain in the heel indicate? 

Repetitive stress to the heel from walking and running can cause heel pain. Another common condition associated with heel pain is plantar fasciitis, which is characterized by small micro-tearing of the fascia ligament on the bottom of the foot. Without proper education on the condition and wrong shoe wear, the condition often becomes worse. We can help diagnose plantar fasciitis and give you the right treatment plan to have you walking pain-free.
