I am 31. I have been in a wheelchair for 2 months with an extreme case of Achilles tendonosis and plantar fasciitis. The tendonosis is healing and responding very well to physical therapy. The PF…is a different story. Of all the things I have tried that have not worked…I hate the custom orthotics the most. Finding myself at the end of my rope, short on hope, and catching myself (again) sitting in my wheelchair and crying, I desperately sat at the computer for the 900th time to look for something…anything that could offer me a ray of hope and insight into what is actually wrong with me and how I can treat it…then I found your blog on PF. I got a FootLog. I got The Stick. The connection you made between my calf muscles and the PF…has been the break I’ve been looking for. I’m almost positive that “The Stick” massage tool was sent down from the angels. For a minute there I considered tagging the windows of my car with,
‘Have Plantar Fasciitis??? Get a FootLog & The Stick, people!… it will help you!’
I have hope…I have relief…I have no words to explain how grateful I am for your experiences and that you shared them online so I was able to find them…I can’t possibly thank you enough for what you have done for me. I know I have lots of work to do to manage this day to day, but I now have an explanation, an understanding about my situation…instead of a big black hole filled with questions.
Thank you. Thank you…a million times thank you for helping me. God bless you. I just wanted you to know.
