Plantar Fasciitis Physical Therapy in Atlanta

Get expert physical therapy for plantar fasciitis and return to running pain-free.

Heel Pain Holding You Back from Running?

Plantar fasciitis is one of the most common causes of heel pain for runners in Atlanta and it can linger for months if not treated properly. If you’re experiencing:

  • Sharp pain in your heel or arch (especially with first steps in the morning)

  • Heel pain that worsens with running or standing long hours

  • Stiffness in your foot or calf that limits your stride

  • Pain that improves with rest but keeps coming back once you run again

You don’t have to settle for “just stretching it” or relying on temporary fixes. At Tempo Physical Therapy & Performance, we help runners in Atlanta address plantar fasciitis at the root so you can keep training without nagging heel pain.

What Causes Plantar Fasciitis in Runners?

Plantar fasciitis is often the result of too much load on the foot without enough support or recovery. Common causes include:

  • Sudden mileage or hill increases (common with Atlanta’s hilly routes)

  • Weak or underactive calf and foot muscles

  • Limited ankle mobility

  • Poor running mechanics or excessive pronation

  • Worn-out shoes or lack of proper arch support

At Tempo, we go beyond treating symptoms. We identify the root cause so you can run long-term without setbacks.

Don’t Let Heel Pain Ruin Your Marathon Training

Plantar fasciitis doesn’t have to end your training cycle. With the right plan, you can heal and run stronger than before.
