The 5-Minute Plantar Fasciitis Solution

by Jim Johnson

Published studies show that if you remove a piece of the plantar fascia from a person with chronic plantar fasciitis, the microscope consistently finds NO inflammation - so treating the wrong pathophysiology never works. No need for surgery, lists of exercises to do, orthotics, or night splints. Just one simple solution - let me show you exactly what to do.

Incredibly Helpful Book

I've been running for years and finally ended up with plantar fasciitis, quite common among runners. The thing about plantar fasciitis, is that it tends to hang around awhile- which is why I'm glad I found this book. In fact I now use the treatment described in the book after every run. While I have never written a review before, I was so impressed with this book that I wanted to share my experience. Now it's not a terribly long book, but like a stick of dynamite, it really packs a punch. Why do I say that? Because the book is so darn comprehensive (the author obviously did his homework as he meticulously provides citations for all the info in the book). Here's a quick rundown of what I thought were its best points: -the book is very thorough in explaining what the plantar fascia is, where it is, and what went wrong with it. Turns out its not an inflammation thing but an incomplete healing problem. A key point few understand, but you'll know after reading just a few pages. -there's a TON of pictures (I suspect that's why the book is a tad on the expensive side- medical artists are expensive and books with many pictures usually cost more to print). I'm a visual learner and the pictures helped me a lot to understand the info, especially the anatomy stuff. -there are no wasted explanations or filler- all the info is short, sweet, and to the point- and in non-medical language. -the book is completely evidence-based. The 5-Minute solution is targeted to work especially for long-term sufferers and has been shown to have over a 90% success rate in controlled studies. Compare this to the "shot gun" approach that is usually prescribed and the kind of crap you usually find all over the net(try stretching or try ice or maybe try a shoe insert- something is bound to work). Obviously that approach never worked for me. -great section on what you can do to prevent recurrences (an often neglected topic) -there's also an entire section that goes through alternative treatments for plantar fasciitis that have been shown to work in controlled trials- just in case you're that 6% or so that don't get relief from the 5-minute solution. All-in-all, its cheaper than a visit to the doctor and I highly recommend this book to get educated, get better, and learn now to stay that way!

Amazing Results, Blown Away!

I was skeptical but I would pay ANYTHING to be rid of may PF pain. I have suffered on and off for over a year. Taping, calf stretching, icing, etc, nothing seemed to work. This WORKED, and FAST! I can't believe it, I am absolutely blown away. Buy the book...it's the best $27 I have spent in a LONG LONG time. Very simple. Very effective, I would kiss this guy if I saw him....

It really worked!

For over 1 year I did everything else... 3 cortisone shots...2 different podiatrists, 2 different pairs of custom made orthotics, every device money could buy, 1 chiropractor, hot laser treatments, one M.D., daily Chinese foot massages, and acupuncture (which actually did give 'some' relief....and lots and lots of money...I finally bought this little book...which seems expensive by the page...read it...and did the exercise shown, and I was cured in 2 weeks. No podiatrist, or M.D. ever told me about this simple treatment... Every podiatrist should read this book. Really, try this first before you waste a bunch of money on everything else.

It does work

I have spent a lot of money on my foot with this problem. After reading this book and doing the recommended treatment. I am healing. I have had Plantar Fascitis for over two years. This is the only thing that has worked for me.
