When every first step reminds you
Confirm the problem. Reduce the strain. Build the foot back up.
Plantar fasciitis is one of the most common names people use for persistent pain under the heel. Different problems can feel similar, so the plan starts with clinical assessment and ultrasound before treatment is progressed.
Walking or exercise keeps provoking it
Work, shopping, running, gym sessions or longer walks are being planned around the pain.
Quick fixes have not held
Rest, stretching, rolling or off-the-shelf insoles may have helped briefly without changing the pattern for long.
What is included
Everything needed for a focused plantar fasciopathy plan.
- A clinical assessment and diagnostic ultrasound scan to clarify whether the plantar fascia is the likely source of your heel pain.
- Custom-made insoles designed from your assessment findings.
- Three shockwave therapy appointments.
- Manual therapy within those appointments where it supports your plan.
- A progressive rehabilitation programme for the foot, calf and lower limb.
- Review of your response so loading, exercises and day-to-day advice can be adjusted.
Assess and scanWe examine the heel, foot and lower limb, then use diagnostic ultrasound to help answer the clinical question and rule in or out the right treatment route.
Build your support planYour custom-made insoles and rehabilitation programme are based on what the assessment finds, not a generic heel-pain template.
Treat and progressAcross three appointments, shockwave, manual therapy and progressive loading are used together, with the plan adjusted to your response.
Why this plan
Heel pain usually needs more than one tool.
Shockwave can be useful for selected persistent plantar fascia pain, but the longer-term plan also needs to address load, strength, footwear and how the foot is being used.
01 Clarify
Check the likely pain source.
Assessment and ultrasound findings are explained before the treatment plan is confirmed.
02 Support
Reduce unnecessary strain.
Custom-made insoles and practical footwear advice support the foot while capacity is rebuilt.
03 Rebuild
Progress beyond short-term relief.
Shockwave and manual therapy sit alongside rehabilitation for walking, work, running or exercise.
This plan is for suspected plantar fasciitis or plantar fasciopathy rather than every cause of heel pain. Ultrasound supports the clinical assessment but does not replace it. Treatment is adapted to your health, findings and response and cannot guarantee a pain-free foot.

Common questions
What people usually want to know.
Your clinician adapts the plan to your symptoms, health, goals and current ability rather than pushing everyone through the same programme.
Is plantar fasciitis the same as plantar fasciopathy?
Plantar fasciitis is the familiar name. Clinicians often use plantar fasciopathy because persistent heel pain does not always behave like a simple inflammatory problem.
Are the custom-made insoles included?
Yes. The £397 price includes the insoles as part of the plan, with no separate insole charge.
Is this the injection package?
No. This is the non-injection plantar fasciopathy treatment plan. If an injection route is being considered, use the separate plantar fascia injection and rehabilitation page.
What if the scan suggests something else?
We will explain the findings and the safer next step. We will not continue with a package that does not fit the clinical presentation.
A recent significant injury, inability to bear weight, a hot or rapidly worsening swollen foot, spreading redness, fever, a new wound, loss of sensation or feeling unwell needs prompt medical assessment rather than a package booking.
