Tui Na and Acupuncture for Plantar Fasciitis Nottingham

Traditional Chinese Medicine support for heel pain, foot discomfort and movement restriction

Plantar fasciitis can make everyday activities uncomfortable, from walking and standing to exercising and simply getting out of bed in the morning.

Many people describe sharp heel pain, discomfort through the arch of the foot, or stiffness that feels worse after periods of rest.

At Riverside Natural Health Centre, James combines Traditional Chinese Acupuncture with Tui Na massage to create a tailored treatment approach designed around your symptoms, activity levels, and overall wellbeing.

Common symptoms of plantar fasciitis

  • Heel pain when walking
  • Discomfort after rest
  • Morning foot stiffness
  • Pain through the arch of the foot
  • Exercise-related discomfort
  • Tight calves and feet
  • Reduced mobility
  • Walking discomfort

Why combine Tui Na and acupuncture?

Tui Na is a traditional Chinese hands-on therapy that may include massage, mobilisation, stretching, and acupressure techniques.

Acupuncture uses very fine sterile needles selected according to your individual presentation and Traditional Chinese Medicine assessment.

By combining both approaches within the same session, James is able to address local tension around the foot and calf while taking a broader whole-person view of recovery and wellbeing.
