Plantar Fasciitis Relief for Runners and Walkers
About this episode
Calling all runners and walkers: This is a lively, enlightening conversation about a painful condition that afflicts far too many active folks. Hosts Sarah Bowen Shea and Amanda Loudin talk with physical therapist Denise Smith; an avid walker who currently has plantar fasciitis (PF); and a runner who finally (!) kicked PF. The conversation covers a lot of ground, including:
-what plantar fasciitis is and its most common symptoms;
-the myriad (so many!!) causes of PF;
-the lowdown on cortisone injections;
-how two active women developed + dealt with PF; and,
-what a “foot push-up” is!
Before the first of the three guests joins at around 12:19, Amanda tells tales of her latest Adirondack High Peaks climbs.
