Yeah I saw it and I made one but it wasn't nearly as good as the commercial model (of course it was a lot cheaper too!)

Fortunately no one sells them within 50 miles of here. That is probably the sole (ha ha ha) reason I don't have a pair.

Interesting. I don't even know if anyone around here does that sort of thing. I'll have to do a search on acupuncture and PF.

Thanks,

Lorraine,

Its Scott ; ) Yeah you are probably right. Whatever happened to her anyway. Is she still one with the bells? I need to get that book but i am afraid if I do I'll find myself at a store buying a pair of vibram five fingers.

I wish you would've been at the Ahnold.

Sean or whatever my name is.

James:

I think if I would have done my stretching after I had my MT work on my feet, I would have cured this a lot quicker.

Thanks,

Thanks for the message. I did try the water bottle trick. It certainly didn't hurt but the real improvement came with the stretching. I suspect the combination of that with the stretching would have some big advantages. Excellent points you brought up. Thanks for your comments.

Scott, great article- hope your pf is healing well. Definintely continue stretching- but it's also important to keep your arch supported to prevent the plantar fascia tissue from overstretching and becoming inflamed(it happens upon weight bearing, when there is no support). Stretching definetely helps too. Have you tried rolling/massaging your foot over a frozen water bottle? That may bring some relief as well. Best of luck with your pf!
