Compensations in the body can lead to foot pain. Addressing the root causes of foot pain and adopting a comprehensive approach are crucial for long-term relief. Ditch the temporary fixes!   In this episode of The MOVEMENT Movement, Steven Sashen speaks with Angela Walk, DC, The Plantar Fasciitis Doc. She has developed a six-step program to effectively address plantar fasciitis at home, challenging misconceptions about the condition. Her approach emphasizes transitioning to functional footwear with wide toe boxes and zero drop to promote natural foot function and reduce reliance on orthotics, which can weaken foot muscles.   Key Takeaways: → Why functional footwear is crucial in preventing conditions like plantar fasciitis. → How orthotics can weaken foot function and contribute to foot problems. → Why elevated heels in footwear can lead to gait issues and muscle tension. → Why plantar fasciitis rehabilitation should focus on strengthening lower leg muscles, not stretching.   → How gradually transitioning to barefoot walking improves foot health.   Dr. Angela Walk, a distinguished sports chiropractor with 25 years of experience based in Nashville, Tennessee, is renowned for her expertise in treating plantar fasciitis and challenging the common misconceptions surrounding its treatment. Through her innovative six-step program, Dr. Walk critiques the traditional reliance on orthotics, cortisone shots, and static stretching, advocating instead for a focus on proper footwear and natural foot function. She emphasizes the importance of transitioning to functional footwear with wide toe boxes and zero drop, alongside incorporating barefoot walking and toe spacers to strengthen the foot and promote natural arch support. By sharing her insights on social media as the "plantar fasciitis doc," Dr. Walk aims to educate the public on more effective, sustainable ways to manage and prevent plantar fasciitis, reaching a wide audience eager for accessible and practical advice.   Connect With Dr. Walk:   Dr. Angela Walk Instagram Facebook     Connect with Steven: Xero Shoes Join the MOVEMENT Movement X Instagram Facebook

Carolyn McMakin, MA, DC - contact@frequencyspecific.com Kim Pittis, LCSP, (PHYS), MT - info@fsmsports365.com 00:14 Weekly Check-In and Personal Reflections 01:37 Case Study: Guitarist with Neck and Arm Pain 06:35 Understanding Muscle and Nerve Function 24:10 Family Dynamics in Patient Care 33:09 Addressing Chronic Foot Pain 35:03 The Role of Fascia in Pain Management 36:40 Understanding Nerve and Fascia Interactions 40:28 Impact of Sports on Foot and Leg Health 47:21 Challenges in Treating Complex Conditions 50:16 Innovative Approaches to Stomach Issues 58:55 Upcoming Courses and Final Thoughts **Evaluating Complex Cases through FSM** Clinical scenarios often present with multifaceted symptoms, where the root cause might not be apparent. In such situations, FSM can be used to navigate these complexities. As discussed in recent applications, for a patient with persistent neck and arm pain, an MRI revealed disc issues at multiple levels. FSM facilitated a nuanced approach by specifically targeting disc pain, nerve pain, and associated facet pain. Practitioners are encouraged to consider not just the discs but potential secondary factors such as facet joints to provide comprehensive pain management. **Addressing Neuromuscular Factors** In patients with unexplained differences in muscle performance, such as grip strength discrepancies, FSM can be instrumental. Observations highlight the benefit of FSM in differentiating between fast and slow-twitch muscle contributions, as seen in musicians and athletes who display varying performance strengths without muscle atrophy. Utilizing FSM frequencies focusing on nerve and muscle integration can aid in balancing these functional differences and enhance performance. **Facilitating Effective Rehabilitation** Embedding FSM into rehabilitation practices allows practitioners to address both acute and chronic conditions effectively. By examining case reports, it becomes evident that frequency-specific approaches can significantly improve conditions like disc rehabilitation and muscle coordination. For instance, using precise frequencies for muscular and dural adhesions has shown promising results in restoring mobility and reducing pain. The use of video analysis can further complement FSM strategies by providing insights into habitual movements that may contribute to ongoing issues. **Holistic Patient Management** Consideration must be given to broader lifestyle factors and how they interact with the body's physical dynamics. Achieving objectivity in treatments requires practitioners to not merely focus on symptomatic relief but explore the underlying ergonomic and mechanical contributors to a patient's chronic state. For example, in musicians or other professionals exposed to repetitive strain, simple ergonomic adjustments are crucial alongside FSM treatments to maintain structural harmony and prevent recurrence. **Bilateral Symptoms and Central Nervous System Influence** Bilateral symptoms in patients often suggest a central nervous system component as a possible origin. Healthcare providers should consider treating the central nervous system and ensure the effective functioning of the dura and related structures. FSM methods can reduce central sensitization and improve neural dynamics, demonstrated by improved bilateral symptoms following targeted FSM therapy. **Managing Conditions like Plantar Fasciitis and Fasciopathy** Discussion highlights how tearing and scarring in soft tissues, compounded by repetitive stress, play a central role in chronic fasciopathies. FSM effectively addresses these issues by focusing on reducing tissue scarring and enhancing tissue vitality, thus improving overall fascia function and reducing chronic pain instances like plantar fasciitis. Implementing FSM in Treatment Protocols For practitioners seeking to integrate FSM within their treatments, continuous education and clever application are crucial. Diving deeper into functional mechanics and aligning FSM with current rehab protocols can facilitate more significant advancements in patient care. Complex cases such as those involving deep scarring or neuromuscular imbalances particularly benefit from FSM's tailored approach, allowing for holistic and longevity-focused healing in everyday practice. By weaving FSM into the fabric of treatment strategies, healthcare professionals can provide nuanced and comprehensive care, addressing pain and dysfunction at their roots. The true power of FSM lies in its ability to modulate physiological functions at the cellular level, offering unique therapeutic windows that elevate standard care approaches and support patient-centered outcomes.

Join Joanne and Paul in this fascinating episode as they share insights - and debunk some common myths - around Plantar Fasciitis. There's often different reasons FOR the pain, and it can need a variety of different treatments depending on the root cause. Sometimes Plantar Fasciitis is blamed on high arches, sometimes on low arches (flat feet).  Sometimes there's shin splints (from overuse) and sometimes lack of motion is blamed. Often it's hard to know what, where and why you, or a client, might be struggling - it just hurts.So in this episode we're bringing together our decades of experience in treating people and teaching movement, to help unravel this debilitating condition. We explore the intricate architecture of the foot, the various causes behind this painful condition, and why personalized treatment is crucial. We discuss how factors like genetics, early development, and even the type of shoes worn during childhood contribute to the condition. And we share valuable advice on differentiating treatment approaches, the impact of surface interfaces on foot health, and the importance of respecting our body's natural tissue intelligence. We hope you enjoy the conversation and leave it feeling better informed and equipped in dealing with - or preventing - foot pain!SIGN UP TO THE JOANNE AVISON NEWSLETTER Simply scroll down to ‘Join Our Collective' and pop in your details.

Have you tried everything to fix your plantar fasciitis, but you're still experiencing foot pain? In this video, I'll show you how to fix plantar fasciitis with one simple plantar fasciitis stretch. Find out how to get foot pain relief at home! If the bottom of your foot is inflamed, you don't want to stretch it! Stretching the calf or massaging the bottom of the foot can make plantar fasciitis pain worse. Before you perform this plantar fasciitis stretch, rate your pain on a scale of 1 to 10 when putting pressure on your foot. To perform the stretch, sit down and bend your toes downward. This shouldn't hurt! This exercise stretches the opposite muscles and fascia. After performing this stretch, rerate your foot pain. Another surprising solution for plantar fasciitis is a low-carb diet combined with intermittent fasting. Inflammation that can cause plantar fasciitis occurs when your carbs are too high. The root cause of plantar fasciitis is too much calcium. Magnesium controls calcium in the body and can get rid of excess calcium. Cramps and plantar fasciitis are common signs of a magnesium deficiency. Try taking 400 mg of magnesium glycinate each day to combat plantar fasciitis. Vitamin D helps with many calcium-related issues and has potent anti-inflammatory effects. Consider taking 20,000 IU of vitamin D daily for plantar fasciitis pain. Magnesium won't work well without vitamin D and vice versa. If you take too much vitamin D without magnesium, you'll end up with a magnesium deficiency. Vitamin D deficiency can contribute to plantar fasciitis, but you may also notice other problems, such as lower back pain, decreased immune function, and muscle achiness. Always take vitamin D with vitamin K2, which helps remove calcium from the soft tissues. Do these plantar fasciitis stretches several times daily until your foot and heel pain goes away. Vitamin D, K2, and magnesium combined with keto and intermittent fasting may significantly reduce plantar fasciitis pain in the long term.
