Plantar fasciitis. Mechanics and pathomechanics of treatment.
Clinics in Sports Medicine 1988 January

Temporary relief of pain can be achieved by customary antiinflammatory drugs or therapy; long-term relief is achieved by adequate remedy of the aggravating pronation factors.

A clinical environment with physician and orthotist together allows ideal evaluation and treatment of patients.
