Plantar fasciitis is one of the most common causes of foot and heel pain. In a recent study involving 63 plantar fasciitis patients, researchers observed that participants treated with the combination of custom foot orthotics and manual therapy experienced greater improvements in pain and function than the patients who only received one of the treatment options. Doctors of chiropractic are known to use both approaches when treating patients with plantar fasciitis.
