Plantar Fasciitis Relief in Round Rock
Understanding the Root of Your Foot Pain
Plantar fasciitis often develops because of uneven weight distribution across your feet, typically due to weakened arches or biomechanical imbalances that create excessive stress on specific areas. This leads to the formation of heel spurs and the characteristic stabbing pain that makes your first steps in the morning so unbearable. Dr. Harris understands that effective chiropractic care treatment requires addressing not just your foot, but the entire chain of movement from your pelvis down to your toes.
Many patients are surprised to learn that their foot pain may actually stem from problems higher up in their kinetic chain. Dr. Harris’s Gonstead training allows him to identify and correct these underlying issues for lasting relief.
Advanced Training for Superior Results
Dr. Harris studied under Dr. Charette, one of the world’s most renowned experts in foot and knee treatment. This advanced training means you’re receiving care based on the most effective techniques available for plantar fasciitis and related foot conditions. Dr. Charette’s methods have helped thousands of patients worldwide avoid surgery and return to pain-free activity.
Comprehensive Treatment Approach
Our plantar fasciitis treatment combines multiple proven therapies for optimal results. We start with custom orthotics to stabilize your foot and pelvis, ensuring even weight distribution across your entire foot structure. Dr. Harris provides precise foot adjustments to restore proper joint mechanics, followed by specialized taping using Leuco tape to hold the corrections in place as you heal.
For patients with dropped arches, we use specific Kinesio tape protocols to provide ongoing support. When appropriate, shockwave therapy provides additional relief for stubborn plantar fasciitis and Achilles tendonitis that haven’t responded to other treatments.
Targeting the True Problem
Rather than just treating symptoms, we focus on strengthening the muscles in your arch while providing the structural support needed through orthotics. This dual approach of muscle strengthening and biomechanical correction creates lasting changes that prevent your plantar fasciitis from returning. Many patients find that once their foot mechanics are properly corrected, they can return to activities they thought were lost forever.
We also incorporate Graston technique and massage therapy to break down scar tissue and improve tissue quality in your foot and calf muscles.
