I had plantar and didn't run for a year upon some very bad advice. I finally found a really good (and old school) podiatrist who fit me with orthodics and I was running again in 1 month. Before you go spending money on other things (like deep shock therapy which did nothing for me) make sure you have checked out whether you need orthodics. I had a fallen arch in one foot and whenever I go without my orthodics (on a daily basis) for about a month, the pain comes back. I needed to write you... b/c I remember my despair one year ago when I thought I would never run again. It will go away... you just need to find something that works for you.

support treats the symptoms, minimalism treats the cause
support worsens the cause, minimalism worsens the symptoms
I'm running somewhere tomorrow. It's going to be beautiful. I can't wait.
Poor baby
Find a PT that knows how to do some good manual therapy

This sums up November 2010 though May 2011 for me.

I did this in Jan/Feb. Not sure it helped but she was really cute.
I believe bzaganjo meant manual therapy of the foot.
Always helps if shes cute
Yea manual therapy of the foot/ankle, all the recent research is saying that helps more than the traditional heat, ice, stretch, ultra sound, etc...
Why is it sideways?
Define: cause, symptoms, and minimalism please. Is this advice based on science or on personal anecdote?
Is it Freak Friday today?
The process is the goal.
Men heap together the mistakes of their lives, and create a monster they call Destiny.
Just trying to hold pedants to their pedantic standards.

Define: cause, symptoms, and minimalism please.
Symptoms are the manifestations of a disease. Cause is the underlying problem. Minimalism is the opposite of orthotics.
yep
What are the specific cause and symptoms of PF. Explain how minimalism addresses the cause.
No. I'm working today.
You could be using your time to write our paper.
And: that a cause has not been found does not mean that a treatment observed to work has no value.
"run" "2" "eat"
agreed.
