Plantar Fasciitis Foot Massage Roller

What is plantar fasciitis?

If you are suffering from a tight sharp pain in the arch or heel of your foot that feels worse in the mornings and gets better during the day you could be suffering from a common overuse injury known as Plantar fasciitis.
Plantar Fasciitis is triggered when excessive strain and pressure damages and inflames the plantar fascia ligament that stretches across the arch of your foot. You can damage your plantar fascia in a number of different ways the most common being biomechanical imbalances such as overpronation and supination that affect your gait and puts abnormal load on your feet which can over time can cause damage to your feet. If you have flat feet or high arches you are more likely to suffer from biomechanical imbalances and Plantar Fasciitis and other foot problems and injuries as a result.

How a foot roller can help ease your pain

Using a spikey foot roller is a great way to help ease your Plantar Fasciitis and speed up your recovery. Our specially designed Foot Roller for Plantar Fasciitis has a number of features that will help ease your pain and get you back on your feet quicker. Featuring spike reflexology nodes our foot roller will help massage and stimulate fresh oxygenated blood to your foot helping to soothe your pain, reduce inflammation and swelling and accelerate the natural healing process of your damaged plantar fascia ligament. This foot roller is ideal for using in the mornings when your plantar fascia ligament is at its tightest state. The rolling action will help to untighten your plantar fascia and Achilles tendon helping to protect you from pulling and straining the ligaments in your foot and reduce any tight pains that you might be having. You can also use this foot roller to help treat and ease other foot problems and conditions including Diabetic Neuropathy, Arthritis, Metatarsalgia (ball of foot pain), Myofascial Pain Syndrome, Achilles Tendinitis as well as general foot cramps, aches, pains and fatigue.

If you are suffering from Plantar Fasciitis, we also recommended checking out a pair of Arch support insoles or a Night splint. Wearing a pair of arch support insoles can help to keep strain and pressure off your feet and correct gait problems which maybe contributing to your injury. Wearing a night splint can also help by keeping your foot stretched and supported whilst you sleep at night to prevent tight pain in the morning when you wake up and improve your recovery.
