Why Plantar Fasciitis Doesn’t Easily Go Away
Why Plantar Fasciitis Doesn’t Easily Go Away
Plantar fasciitis isn’t just a “tight foot” problem.
In many chronic cases, the pain comes from poor tissue healing at the plantar fascia’s attachment to the heel. Over time, repeated stress, overload, or compensation can cause microscopic tissue breakdown that the body struggles to fully repair on its own.
That’s why common approaches like stretching, rolling, ice, or inserts often provide temporary relief, but don’t always solve the root issue.
These strategies can help reduce tension and manage symptoms, but they don’t directly stimulate the healing response that stubborn plantar fasciitis needs.
When heel pain lingers for months, the missing piece is often restoring healthy tissue repair, not just stretching what already hurts.
That’s where more targeted treatments like shockwave therapy come into play.
What Makes Shockwave Different

New Tech, New Results
New Tech, New Results
Shockwave therapy helps address why plantar fasciitis becomes chronic, not just how it feels.
Instead of only stretching or calming irritated tissue, shockwave delivers targeted mechanical stimulation to the plantar fascia. This helps restart the body’s natural healing response in tissue that has struggled to repair itself.
This approach can:
• Increase blood flow to damaged tissue
• Stimulate tissue repair
• Reduce pain sensitivity in stubborn heel pain
Because it targets the tissue directly, shockwave therapy is especially helpful for plantar fasciitis that hasn’t improved with rest, stretching, or supportive footwear.
For many patients, shockwave therapy is the missing piece that helps plantar fasciitis finally move in the right direction.

After struggling with plantar fasciitis for far too long, I finally found relief thanks to Dr. k. He was incredibly knowledgeable, thorough, and focused on treating the root cause, not just the symptoms. The results exceeded my expectations, and I feel better than I have in years. Highly recommend!

Ever since I’ve seen you doing shockwave, it’s like night and day different. I have been able to help out at my son’s soccer practices and longboard without any pain!
Dr. Kakishita provides exceptional care with remarkable attention to detail. I initially became his patient at his previous practice, and when I learned he had opened his own clinic, I immediately looked for him. His outstanding treatment has significantly improved my mobility and reduced my pain. His unique approach and genuine concern for patient wellness make him stand out in his field. I've experienced consistent progress under his care and wouldn't trust my spinal health to anyone else. He is highly recommended for anyone seeking quality chiropractic treatment.
Dr. K is an amazing chiropractor!! I was dealing with a lot of lower back and hip pain and he worked with me for months and gave me exercises and stretches I could do at home in addition to what he could do in office. He made me feel important like I was the only patient he was working with and was truly concerned with my well being and in helping me get back to running and moving like I had in the past. Definitely recommend him and the treatment he does!!
I can’t recommend Dr. Andrew at Kinetic Chiropractic enough! Unlike other chiropractors who rush you in and out with a quick two-minute adjustment, Andrew truly takes the time to understand your pain and address the root cause of the issue. From the very first visit, he was incredibly thorough—asking the right questions, assessing my mobility, and developing a plan tailored to my needs. He doesn’t just do a basic adjustment and send you on your way; he goes the extra mile by incorporating muscle work, mobility exercises, and practical advice to help you heal and prevent future issues. You can tell he genuinely cares about his patients and wants to see long-term improvements, not just temporary relief. If you’re looking for a...
My husband was struggling with neck pain, and Dr. Kakishita provided exceptional care that made a real difference. From the very first visit, they took the time to listen, assess the issue thoroughly, and provide a treatment plan that brought him noticeable relief. The level of expertise is truly impressive. We’re so grateful for their help and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a skilled and caring chiropractor!
Dr. Kakishita has been great! I appreciate that he really listens and tries to get to the root of the problem rather than just giving me a generic adjustment. I also really appreciate the exercises he gives me to help me strengthen whatever areas are giving me issues. He’s personable and genuinely interested in each patient. I would definitely recommend him!
Dr. Kakishita is hands down the best chiropractor I’ve been to. He took the time to really listen to my concerns and explained everything in a way that made sense. I never felt rushed—he was thoughtful, thorough, and you can tell he truly knows what he’s doing. During my visit, he didn’t just do a quick adjustment and send me on my way. He adjusted me, did scraping on my back, used shockwave therapy on my arm, and put on tape to help with recovery. He also offers ice packs though I didn’t take one for my visit. He came up with a personalized treatment plan and shared it with me so I knew exactly what to expect moving forward. A lot of chiropractors feel like they’re just trying to get you in and out—but Dr. Kakishita is different. He...
Dr. Kakishita is great! He is super informative and really helped with my neck pain and headaches.
This was my first time going to a chiropractor. Dr. K was great, talking me through the various procedures. It feels like he actually cares about my injury and ensuring the procedures are actually helping me improve.
