WHAT TO EXPECT
Plantar Fasciitis doesn't build up overnight, and it doesn't resolve overnight either. With 10–15 minutes of daily, consistent work, here's what Alleviate users report.
WEEK 1
Early relief. Off-loading and daily massage typically bring a quick drop in pain within the first 7 days.
DAY 28
Half the pain. On average, it takes users about 28 days to cut their pain in half.
WEEK 6
Lasting progress. Consistent users of a full System typically see a 40–70% reduction in pain over six weeks as strength builds.
Based on Alleviate user-reported outcomes. Individual results vary.
HOW IT WORKS
Every Alleviate tool covers one part of the approach a physical therapist uses in clinic. Pick one, or get all three in a bundle.
01 · RELIEVE
Braces and compression take load off the painful tissue so you can stay active while it heals.
02 · REPAIR
Targeted soft-tissue tools recreate the hands-on work of a PT visit, a few minutes a day at home.
03 · REBUILD
A guided exercise program builds the strength that keeps pain from coming back.
WHY ALLEVIATE
Our co-founder Luke Ferdinands has spent 20 years treating elite athletes and everyday patients. Every product is built to recreate a proven PT treatment, so you can keep making progress between appointments, or without them.

WATCH & LEARN
The gold standard of plantar fasciitis treatment has 3 key parts. Most at-home solutions are ineffective because they lack one or more of these key components.
Loft 2 is designed to reduce the stress on the injured tissue, relieve Plantar Fasciitis and PTTD pain, and give the sensitive tissue time and space to heal. Here's how best to use the brace, from the inventor.
Mark, a podiatrist, keeps his Plantar Fasciitis in check with a daily maintenance routine using the Arch Massager. Read his take on Alleviate's innovative Plantar Fasciitis foot massager.
Plantar Fasciitis massage is an effective method of relieving pain and changing the underlying tissue that causes pain and dysfunction in the foot. Learn how physical therapists use deep tissue massage to treat Plantar Fasciitis.
Plantar Fasciitis can go away on its own with just some R&R, if your pain just started. After a week or two, though, you'll need active treatment to make Plantar Fasciitis go away. Here's what to do when you first develop your symptoms and when you've had pain for a while, from our physical therapist.
Finding the best shoes for Plantar Fasciitis is subjective and comfort-focused. Unscientific as it sounds, the current literature supports that. Luke, our co-founder, shares how he'd select the best shoes for your foot anatomy, Plantar Fasciitis pain, and activities.
Stretching can relieve calf tightness and arch pain associated with Plantar Fasciitis, but it's not a cure-all we once thought it was. For pain relief that lasts, incorporate strengthening exercises in your treatment plan.
Plantar Fasciitis night splints can provide temporary relief, but can't resolve the root cause of your pain. Let’s look at how Plantar Fasciitis night splint works, pros and cons, and what to do to make sure you’re getting quick symptom relief, as well as a long-term resolution.
Cortisone shots can relieve Plantar Fasciitis pain quickly, but have limitations. For example, a cortisone shot can't treat the tissue damage itself, so the pain relief doesn't last. Repeated use can also weaken the plantar fascia, further contributing to problems. But they can be useful, in some limited circumstances. Here's how to decide if you should get a cortisone shot for Plantar Fasciitis.
Plantar Fasciitis surgery is a last resort. Learn about recovery time, success rates, different types of surgeries, and how to avoid surgery with quality treatment. (Good news: you have an over 95% chance of getting better without surgery!)
Fallen arches and flat feet are often due to PTTD. This painful condition can be mistaken for Plantar Fasciitis. Learn the differences to get the right treatment.
