Description

In this episode of The Spinal Truth, Dr. Caleb Slater take a deep dive into plantar fasciitis, the frustrating foot pain often described as feeling like “walking on glass.” They break down what plantar fasciitis really is, why traditional treatments like boots, inserts, and stretching often fall short, and how many cases are actually misdiagnosed nerve issues stemming from the spine.

From understanding the difference between fascia irritation and sciatic nerve involvement to uncovering why imaging and surgery don’t always solve the problem, this episode provides clarity for anyone dealing with chronic foot pain. Dr. Slater shares practical ways to identify whether your pain is truly plantar fasciitis, plus simple strategies to finally find lasting relief.

Whether you’re newly diagnosed, stuck after months of failed treatments, or just looking for answers beyond orthotics and injections, this episode will give you a fresh perspective and hope.
