Kinesio Tape Exercise

Taping will help to protect the fascia and allow time for healing to occur. It can also enable patient with severe pain to walk again. The tape should tighten when standing, and should absorb some of the tension that would have been in the fascia. (The pain may be relieved immediately).11 The kinesio tape acts as a form of support without compromising on the patients range of motion while biomechanically allowing the body to heal itself.12
Stretching is a general term used to describe any therapeutic maneuver designed to increase the extensibility of soft tissues, thereby improving flexibility by elongation of the shortened structures. Stretching exercise programs play an important role in treatment of plantar fasciitis and can correct weakness of intrinsic foot muscles. If there is pain with few steps in morning, massage and stretching the fascia itself before getting out of bed may help.13
Effects of wax bath therapy:
Stimulation of superficial capillaries and arterioles cause local hyperemia and reflex vasodilatation.29 The hyperemia is due to response of the skin to its function of heat regulation. The effects of vasodilatation in the muscle are negligible, but then may be some reflex heating in the joints. Exercise after the wax is essential to increase the muscle circulation and sedative effect of heat to obtain more range of movement and muscle strength. The most important effect of wax its marked sedative effect on the tissue.30 Wax leaves the skin moist, soft and pliable which is useful for stretching scar and adhesion before applying mobilization techniques. Overall, wax helps in reducing pain and stiffness of
