Perform a Simple Massage
A massage is a popular form of relaxation. It usually involves rubbing and kneading the muscles using controlled force. Most of the time, therapists use their hands, but other forms of massage require special equipment like bamboo sticks, balls, and wax. According to science, massaging the muscles can facilitate blood circulation, breaking up congested or blocked areas and promoting healing.
Just like other muscle pains, heel pain can be treated by a simple massage. There are a lot of simple techniques a patient can do independently. One good example is the TAH massage or “thumb, arches, and heels” massage. The patient will use their thumb to create circular motions from the aches and heels to the feet’ balls. This massage is proven to lessen the stiffness and inflammation of the heels.
If a patient is incapable of massaging their feet, hiring a professional therapist may be helpful.
