Acupuncture treats plantar fasciitis and many other forms of foot pain. This includes neuromas and nerve impingement numbness and pain referred from the low back, knees, ankles, and local regions within the foot. Plantar fasciitis is often a combination of nerve entrapment within the foot combined with referred pain from other areas of the body. Electroacupuncture and standard acupuncture are highly effective for this treatment process.
