In this video, Maryke explains how massage can help with plantar fasciitis. Recent research has shown that patients with plantar fasciitis who received massage reported reduced pain compared to those who did not. She discusses which muscles to massage for treatment and demonstrates how you can massage yourself. It's important to note that massage alone will not cure your plantar fasciitis, but it forms a useful part of the treatment plan.
