@amberpep, I have recurring issues with plantar fasciitis. Things that help me:
- always wear shoes with support indoors and outdoors. My house shoes are Birkenstocks. I don't go barefoot or sockfooted.
- diligent stretching
- self massage with a frozen water bottle. I roll it back in forth under my foot for 15-20 minutes periodically throughout the day.

Thanks Colleen .... well, that's probably my problem .... I am always barefooted!

Hi Colleen .... That is one thing I have always been guilty of .... running around barefoot or sock-footed. I guess now I'm paying for it. I have found that one of the styles of Merrell to which I add one of those rubber forms for p.f. works really well for me. I'll have to look at the Birkies .... are they the ones like sandles? or is it another style. It sure takes getting used to to be wearing real shoes all day when I've virtually lived barefooted. Getting out of bed in the AM is the worst ... yeowee! What stretches do you do? I'll have to try the iced water bottle thing. Thanks for the information. Let me know about the Birkies.
