Cold therapy is a tried-and-true method to reduce inflammation and numb pain. Applying ice to the affected area can help alleviate the discomfort of heel pain.
How to do it:
Place an ice pack or a frozen water bottle on the heel for 15-20 minutes, 2-3 times a day.
3. Proper Footwear
Wearing shoes that provide proper arch support and cushioning can make a huge difference in managing heel pain. Avoid flat shoes or those with inadequate support.
Tip: Look for shoes with a thick, cushioned sole and a slight heel to help distribute pressure evenly.
4. Massage Therapy
A gentle foot massage can stimulate blood flow and relax the muscles in your feet, easing tension and providing relief from heel pain.
How to do it:
Gently massage the arch and heel area using your thumbs in circular motions.
You can also use a tennis ball or massage roller to apply more pressure.
5. Epsom Salt Foot Soak
Epsom salt has magnesium, which helps relax muscles and reduces inflammation. Soaking your feet in warm water with Epsom salt can be an effective and soothing treatment.
How to do it:
Fill a basin with warm water and add 1/2 cup of Epsom salt.
Soak your feet for 15-20 minutes and repeat daily.
