I was told by my med. provider I had plantar faciaitis (sp). I purchased some ortho arches at a price of over 400 and when I wear them it just makes them worse. There is no pain accept in the arch of my feet. The right be the worst. When I cross my right leg over the left there is a certain point that will feel like a nerve is being pinched and the inner part of my arch twitches and hurts like the dickens. I had gone to a Japanese massage person who really used STRONG massaging.....could he have damaged my feet and the nerves? I don t like doctors and won t go to anyone local.
