Reviews for Plantar Fasciitis Treatment

I can't recommend Lisa enough! I just had my 3rd session this evening and my Plantar Fasciitis has completely gone. I felt huge improvement from the first visit. It's life-changing for me as I had suffered pain for over a year. I'm a dog walker so I didn't think I could ever be fixed. Lisa worked her magic and converted me to always walking barefoot indoors and wearing correct footwear. I will be eternally grateful.

After months of foot pain of hobbling with plantar fasciitis I discovered we have our very own structural reflexologist in Titirangi! I have learnt so much about my feet and how I was bearing weight on them incorrectly and stressing my plantar fascia. Thanks to an amazing few sessions with Lisa I am now go days of standing and walking with happy, non achey feet.

Have been battling foot pain for quite a few years and have never been able to get to the root cause even after seeing a podiatrist. I’ve had two sessions so far with Lisa and they have been excellent. The way she explains the cause and explains everything helped me to understand what’s going on with my feet. The shoes she recommended have already helped my feet to feel a lot less painful throughout the day and the treatment is super relaxing and my feet have been feeling much better since, I can finally walk around without being in pain non stop for the first time in a long while. Biggest difference in my pain in years.

Lisa is amazing. The pain I had from plantar fasciitis was debilitating. I have had 4 sessions and I am in no pain. I am so grateful.

Why does Structural Reflexology work?

Structural Reflexology relieves foot pain by addressing tension sites on the feet and legs as the product of local muscle and ligament strain while maintaining an understanding of how these sites of tension on the feet will impact the rest of the body.  An important part of correcting foot dysfunction is to address the root cause - we cover this in the first session. 

​

Why 'special' socks/shoes, strapping, sound-waves, soaking, insoles do not work 

Some people who have come to me have experienced short-term relief for various types of foot pain by wearing 'special' socks or shoes, getting their feet strapped with physio tape, soaking their feet or wearing in-soles. When these methods are first used, some relief can be attained, but over time they stop working. This is because they do not address the cause: leg and foot muscles under tension altering the foot's normal weight-bearing alignment.

 

Why do we get muscle tension & misalignment?

Shoes. Any shoe that is too small, rigid, narrow or has to be held on by clenching the foot (jandals or any backless slide) will bring our leg and foot muscles under tension and not allow the foot to perform its normal range of function to bear weight across the foot as we walk. The body will adjust and compensate over time, this is why you do not feel pain immediately when you wear particular shoes, but there is only so much compensation the muscles and ligaments can do before pain sets in. Sometimes this can take years which is often why the connection is not made between the foot pain being experienced and the shoes you are wearing. Yes, even those shoes you love and think are 'comfortable'! The foot and ankle are a complex structure designed perfectly to propel us; any time we wear shoes, the foot has to adjust to the shoe's lift, rigidity, in-built arch support, narrowness, or lack of secure attachment.

 

The most common problem I see are people wearing shoes that are *too* small. They are very surprised to find out they need to be wearing one whole shoe size larger which can only be determined by measuring the feet and checking both the toe-to-heel measurement and the ball-to-heel measurement. 

​

Is muscle tension and misalignment difficult to correct?

No :-) Even people who have been experiencing foot pain for months or years often feel relief and change within a few sessions. This is a comprehensive approach to long-term improved foot function and mobility with lasting results.

​

Aging caused the onset of pain?
I see clients ranging in age from their 20s to their 70s - foot pain is not a symptom of aging, it is a symptom of shoes that do not allow for good foot function.
