hey guys it’s dr. Berg here I’m going to show you how to fix plantar fasciitis

it’s the easiest thing to fix the way that they teach us in school honestly is

it takes too long this is a shortcut and you can try this on yourself or

friends and it will work very fast okay but the thing you need to do first is

just rate the pain 10 being very severe zero being no pain and then do the

procedure and then rewrite it and I want you to put your comments below because

I want to know how much improvement that this gave you okay so the first thing

you do is take a look at if plantar fasciitis is some pain in the bottom of

your foot right here there’s a fascia it’s like a sheath of

collagen connective tissue that becomes inflamed in the bottom of your foot and

by the way this technique can be used on flat feet too the worst thing you can do

is to stretch the calf okay or massage the bottom of the foot that will never

work that makes it worse because you’re going to be tearing things what we want

to do is want to strech the opposite we want to press the toes going downward

and then relax stretch the toes down and relax what you’re doing is you’re

stretching all the muscles on the top of the foot the tendons and the shin

muscles right here called the anterior tibialis so we want to stretch all these

muscles not the calf very important so you do this about 10 times okay just

stretch it stretch it really good and you can do the other side we’re

stretching down this way okay I mean you can do it up to 20 times now if this is

difficult for you you could just go ahead and get on your couch or your bed

and sit on your your feet like this and let your butt sit on the heels and press

down if you could do this if you can’t you can put a pillow between your butt

and your legs but you want to stretch this and really you’re stretching the

front part of your legs what’s happening is you’re sending signals from the

stretching to the other part because they’re both on an electrical circuit

and you’re going to start to create relaxation in your

foot right here so you do that stretch and then you re-rate how you feel and

you should feel wonderful again it’s good for flat feet or anything in the

bottom of your foot any pain in the bottom of your foot and i mean it’s just

the opposite of what people are doing unfortunately but and it’s going to take

too long but this if you do this like once a day for a week it probably would

never come back unless you have some systemic problem some arthritis or gout

which you have uric acid crystals in there in which case you would have to

change your diet get off any sugar eat more vegetables but given your diet is

good and you do this it’s a no brainer it just will go away and it probably

will never come back ok check it out do it and put some comments below
