Plantar Fasciitis
What is Plantar Fasciitis?
The plantar fascia is a band of fibrous tissue which runs along the bottom of the foot. It attaches at the bottom of the heel bone and extends to the forefoot. Plantar Fasciitis is an inflammation of that fibrous tissue caused by excessive stretching. Plantar Fasciitis can in turn lead to heel pain, arch pain, and heel spurs.
Causes of Plantar Fasciitis
- Over-pronation (flat feet) leading to the arch collapsing upon bearing weight
- A foot with an unusually high arch
- A sudden increase in physical activity
- Excessive weight on the foot, usually attributed to obesity or pregnancy
- Improper fitting footwear
- Standing on hard surfaces without proper foot support
How an Anti-Fatigue Floor Mat Can Help Treat Plantar Fasciitis, Heel Spurs, Arch Pain, and Heel Pain
Every time your foot strikes the ground, your plantar fasciitis is stretched. GelPro mats help cushion the shock from walking or standing on hard flooring. The GelPro mat conforms to the shape of your feet, resulting in increased blood flow and soothing relief from the pressure. In addition, your arch is supported and the stress on your plantar fasciitis is greatly reduced.
