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 typically 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.
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.

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!)
