Sports Massage - Plantar Fasciitis

Susan Findlay of the North London School of Sports Massage discusses the use of sports massage in treating plantar fasciitis.

Susan explains how sports massage can benefit cases of plantar fasciitis by easing the tension of the fascia in the sole of the foot using friction and stretching techniques. She also explains how working on other structures within the body can have a positive effect on the condition.

Sports massage may be incredibly effective after one session, or it may take several regular sessions to make an impact. Susan advises on treating little and often, allowing at least 3 to 4 days in between treatments.
