Within seconds of the first stretch, 90 percent of the pain is gone. I can walk normally. Best remedy yet for me. Thanks

Stretching helps plantar fasciitis.
What a lot of people believe is the stretching is helping the heel spur itself. It does not help the spurs. It helps with the pain from plantar fasciitis. Eases tightness of the muscles. And in turn gets rid of, or reduces, foot pain.
I used to have terrible pain in my feet. Foot doctor got me into good shoe inserts and started a stretching program. Every day have to stretch.
Check with you foot doctor for what stretches to do and how often to do them.
