Brief Book Summary:
The 5-Minute Plantar Fasciitis Solution is a simple and quick do-it-yourself program that will help you recover from one of mankind's most common and annoying foot problems- plantar fasciitis. Drawing from the latest scientific research, The 5-Minute Plantar Fasciitis Solution details in plain language what plantar fasciitis is, how to eliminate it (without drugs, surgery, or fancy equipment), and the things you can do to prevent it from ever coming back again. And the best part? It has been proven in randomized controlled trials to work on long-term plantar fasciitis sufferers-taking only minutes a day to do!

Here's a fantastic book that really gets to the point about plantar fasciitis. It contains a wealth of information that I'd expect to spend a lot more money than its price to get. There's a detailed but non-intimidating or boring description of the condition, how to treat it effectively and how to prevent its return. The material is based on scientific evidence and the book even includes a chapter-by-chapter comprehensive list of supporting references. I found such detailed authentication very impressive.
The author targets the facts and presents them in a way that is easy to understand. Illustrations, organized charts, boxed paragraphs and chapter summaries appear throughout this book. They helped me to visualize, comprehend, and remember the essentials for the self-help process.
I particularly liked the question and answer format used to lay out the facts. It set a friendly, congenial tone to my reading experience which helped me with the learning process. This style and the easy-to-understand explanations gave me a comfort level with terminology that otherwise might have been intimidating or boring. And I felt like I stayed on track as I read because the author seemed to anticipate what my subsequent question or concern would be. Invariably they appeared along with answers and solutions within the subsequent page or so. The book has a very well-organized, logical flow of thought and information from one chapter section to the subsequent and on to the following chapter. In my opinion, besides containing comprehensive information about plantar fasciitis, there is no question that the book's author has the instructional skills to effectively present it to people in a crystal-clear style that allows them to understand it and feel better as a result.
I highly recommend this book to anyone experiencing or concerned about plantar fasciitis. It is truly a bargain for the high quality book and comprehensive information you get for its cost.

If you have this condition, you'll spend any amount of money to get rid of it. This excellent book describes what does and does not work, based on good evidence from randomized clinical trials. The punch line is that the only really effective treatment is regular stretching (3x/day for 8 weeks)of the plantar fascia. This is simple and feels good.
Though it costs a lot for a short paperback, the book is definitely worth buying for its simple, straightforward explanation of the condition and its causes, and its evaluation of the many other (much more expensive) aids out there to help people. Night splints are another proven useful aid; Amazon sells a pretty good, quite inexpensive one, the Futuro Plantar Fasciitis Sleep Support. (Shoe inserts, it turns out, work no better than placebo.)

This book tells anyone suffering from plantar fasciitis all they need to know about it. Here's what the book covers:
-learn all about the plantar fascia (i.e. what exactly it is and what it does)
-the typical course of plantar fasciitis (you'll feel better knowing how long it usually lasts and how it responds to various treatments)
-the 5-Minute Plantar Fasciitis Solution (a home program that's 94% successful at decreasing pain in people with resistant plantar fasciitis)
-what you can do to prevent it from coming back
-a great review of other treatment options that have been proven in controlled trials to eliminate plantar fasciitis (save yourself some time and money by finding out what has been shown to actually work)
I also liked the fact that the book was not too long and cites numerous research articles to back up what it says. So, if you suffer from plantar fasciitis and are looking for info and options- this is your book.
