Understanding plantar fasciitis
Plantar fasciitis is one of the most common causes of heel pain. It occurs when the thick band of tissue that runs along the bottom of your foot — the plantar fascia — becomes inflamed or degenerates over time.
The condition typically causes a sharp, stabbing pain in the heel, often worst first thing in the morning or after periods of rest. If you have been living with this pain in Bedford, Northampton, Milton Keynes or the surrounding areas, you are not alone — and the right treatment depends on how long you have been experiencing symptoms.

Plantar fasciitis treatment
An initial consultation is required. The treatment pathway and pricing depend on the duration and nature of your symptoms.
Two treatment pathways, matched to your stage
We do not apply a one-size-fits-all approach. Your treatment is determined by the duration and nature of your symptoms, assessed during your consultation.
Ultrasound-guided corticosteroid injection
For acute plantar fasciitis where symptoms have been present for less than three months, the fascia is typically in an inflammatory state. A precisely targeted corticosteroid injection delivers anti-inflammatory medication directly to the affected area.
- Targets active inflammation
- Ultrasound guided for precision
- Rapid pain relief
- Single appointment procedure
Dry needling + steroid injection
For persistent plantar fasciitis lasting more than three months, the tissue often shifts from inflammation to degeneration. Dry needling provides mechanical stimulation to promote tissue repair, combined with a steroid injection for pain management.
- Addresses chronic tissue degeneration
- Mechanical stimulation + pharmacological support
- Promotes natural healing response
- Followed by rehabilitation advice
How we assess your condition
Clinical diagnosis
Physical examination and symptom history to understand the duration, severity, and impact of your heel pain.
Previous imaging
Any existing MRI, X-ray, or ultrasound reports are reviewed and incorporated into your assessment.
Ultrasound-guided injection
Where injection treatment is appropriate, real-time ultrasound guidance ensures the needle is placed precisely at the target site.
