Inflammation of the plantar fascia at the attachment to the heel bone – Step 2

Rehabilitation starts with the exercises in Step 1. When the exercises can be performed without pain, rehabilitation starts on the next step.

How often and for how long should I train? Training frequency and duration are individual. Start with about 3 repetitions per workout. exercise and at least 3 times a week. Slowly increase the number of repetitions and load without exceeding the pain threshold

Do I have to do the whole program every time? No, you can divide the exercises into different days. The most important thing is to exercise regularly and gradually increase the intensity

The time in minutes indicates the time distribution between stretching, balance and strength if you train for one hour.
Whether you train for one hour or 10 minutes, for example, is adapted to your starting point – and can be increased over time.

The treatment of overload-induced inflammation of growth zones is primarily relief, as the growth zones cannot be trained to become stronger. It is important to keep ‘all’ other muscles active while the tendon attachments on the growth zone of the heel bone heal. The training exercises must not provoke the known pain under the heel during or after training.

Condition

Unlimited: Cycling, swimming and walking

Stretching

10 minutes of each training session

Stå med træningsbenet strakt på et trappetrin/skammel, mens forkroppen bøjes let fremover. Hold udspændingen i 20 sekunder.

Coordination

10 minutes of each training session

Hold balancen på to ben på vippebrættet. Støt i starten med hånden mod væggen. Senere holdes balancen på ét ben uden støtte.
Prøv senere at holde balancen med lukkede øjne.

Stå på et ben på gulvet. Kig frem og hold knæet let bøjet. Støt i starten evt. med hånden mod væggen. Gør senere øvelsen sværere ved at lukke øjnene.

Strength

10 minutes of each training session

Stå på et glat underlag med et viskestykke under foden. Tæerne på træningsbenet peger lige frem. Glid på træningsbenet ud til siden og tilbage igen. Gentag øvelsen med tæerne pegende ud til siden.

Sid/stå med bare tæer på et viskestykke. Træk viskestykket sammen med tæerne.
