ACUPUNCTURE FOR HEEL PAIN - CAUSE, PREVENTION AND TREATMENT by Joanna Zhang, L.Ac, Ph.D. Plantar fasciitis, also known as plantar fasciosis or jogger's heel, is the most common cause of heel pain. Some other possible causes of heel pain include achilles tendonitis, achilles bursitis, and periosteal bruising. It causes inflammation of the plantar fascia, the connective tissue that supports the arch. According to Chinese Medicine, this is due to qi and blood stagnation in the channels and collaterals. Acupuncture works to relieve the pain by unblocking the channels.           310-920-5997	WHAT PROPLE ARE SAYING ... I recommend her treatment for the family which has kids ...
