Heel pain on those first steps in the morning is a classic sign of plantar fasciitis.
Myofascial trigger point therapy uses precise manual pressure and ischemic compression to release the tight, tender knots that cause local and referred pain. It is one of the most effective approaches for chronic muscle pain.
Key benefits
