Chiropractic Care for Plantar Fasciitis in Rhode Island

Plantar fasciitis is a common cause of heel pain, affecting individuals on their feet for extended periods or engaging in repetitive activities like running. At DeCrescenzo Chiropractic, we offer specialized, non-invasive treatments for plantar fasciitis that target the root cause of your pain and help restore mobility. As part of our Extremities care, we provide practical solutions to reduce inflammation and promote long-term healing.

What is Plantar Fasciitis?

Plantar fasciitis occurs when the plantar fascia, a thick band of tissue that runs along the bottom of your foot, becomes inflamed. This inflammation typically results from overuse or excessive strain, leading to sharp pain in the heel, especially after long periods of standing or walking.

Common causes of plantar fasciitis include:

  • Overuse: Repeated stress on the plantar fascia from running, walking, or standing for extended periods.
  • Improper Footwear: Wearing shoes that lack proper support can strain the plantar fascia.
  • Foot Mechanics: Flat feet, high arches, or abnormal walking patterns can strain the plantar fascia extra.

Chiropractic Treatment for Plantar Fasciitis in Rhode Island

At DeCrescenzo Chiropractic, we offer non-invasive chiropractic treatments to relieve pain and promote healing in patients with plantar fasciitis. Our treatments aim to reduce inflammation, restore mobility, and prevent the condition from worsening.

Class IV laser therapy on a foot

Class IV Hot Laser Therapy

Class IV Hot Laser Therapy is a non-invasive treatment option that uses high-intensity laser energy to stimulate healing and reduce inflammation in the extremities. The laser energy penetrates deep into the tissues, increasing blood circulation and promoting cellular regeneration. This can help reduce pain, numbness, and tingling associated with various extremity conditions.

Shockwave Therapy

Shockwave therapy is an advanced treatment option that uses high-energy sound waves to stimulate healing and reduce pain in the extremities. The sound waves create microtrauma in the affected tissues, triggering the body's natural healing response. This can help break down scar tissue, reduce inflammation, and promote the growth of new blood vessels, leading to long-term pain relief.

Symptoms of Plantar Fasciitis

The most common symptom of plantar fasciitis is a sharp pain in the heel, particularly when taking your first steps in the morning or after prolonged periods of standing. Other symptoms may include:

  • Stiffness or tightness in the heel or arch
  • Pain that worsens after activity
  • Tenderness when pressing on the bottom of the foot
  • Difficulty walking due to heel pain

If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, seeking chiropractic care is important to prevent the condition from worsening. At DeCrescenzo Chiropractic, we provide a comprehensive evaluation, which includes a discussion of your symptoms, a physical examination, and possibly imaging tests, and develop a personalized treatment plan to help you recover.

I have been going to DeCrescenzo Chiropractic for many years now. I come in mostly incapacitated and after a few sessions leave with full mobility. I’m always seen in less than 24 hours and the Doctors and support staff are always friendly and caring. It is truly like family.
I was in a lot of pain couldn't sleep well now I'm much better sleep great thank you so much for helping me you're wonderful at your job
Muy Profesional estoy satisfecho con los resultados
I have had so much success with this group. The service is very professional and accommodating. The shock wave therapy has worked wonders as well as the traction.
Everyone was very thoughtful and helpful. The space is beautiful. And after 26 days of headache, I had my first 2 headache free days after my first visit.
My first visit ever to a chiropractor.

Nice office: furniture like someone’s living room! Very clean and no dust anywhere.

Courteous staff. Dr Annie G was also very cordial and open for questions and did a thorough job of questioning me about details of reason for my visit.

This was followed by a careful exam of my back by deep palpation and then a minor adjustment of my L hip.

The visit concluded with an EMG (electric pads treatment) of my upper shoulders by her medical assistant for 10 minutes which was a bit surreal because it felt like a massage but no one was pressing anything. It felt very good basically once I got used to it.

Doctor Annie G took a moment to say goodbye and her receptionist said they were faxing her recommendations for X-rays to my primary care MD so the price of these X-rays would be covered by my insurance. Thoughtful.

I was billed $50 for first visit since it was not covered by my insurance or Medicare.

My primary insurance is Tri-care since I’m retired military and I was disappointed it was not accepted. When I looked into it, it would not have covered a first visit anyway though.

I guess I will just have to see how my secondary insurer Medicare handles these visits.

But otherwise, I was highly satisfied and I want to continue my care here.

So it’s been 2 months of treatment now. I am now down to every 2 weeks. The problems with my neck are much improved. My lower back still bothers me but it isn’t every day any more and overall it’s improved so I can walk more comfortably. I am continuing my visits and although the doctor urged me to come in anytime I was having a bad day and she would squeeze me in! This has not been necessary but I appreciated her telling me that.

Medicare is covering my visits except for a small Co-pay. I continue to highly recommend Decrecenso Chiropractic and Dr Annie G and her assistants and staff to anyone who has pain issues with their neck or lower back similar to mine.
I had a wonderful experience with Dr. Frankie Rodriguez and the entire team. Everyone was so kind, welcoming, and professional throughout my recovery after my accident. Dr. Rodriguez took excellent care of both me and my son, and I truly appreciated how attentive and caring he was with us. I had a very pleasant experience and would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for great chiropractic care!
Always a pleasurable experience. Thanks.
The service was real good, every person that was involved in my treatment made sure I was always comfortable very professional.
