Foot Pain Relief That Lasts
Heel, arch, or toe pain slowing you down? Discover natural relief that starts from the ground up.
Your feet are your foundation—literally. They support your body, balance your posture, and help you move through life. But when they hurt, everything else starts to fall out of place.
Whether it’s morning heel pain, aching arches, or a burning sensation in the toes, foot pain doesn’t just make walking uncomfortable—it can throw off your knees, hips, and spine too.
At Rise Chiropractic in San Diego, we help patients relieve foot pain by correcting the real causes—from poor mechanics to nerve irritation—so you can stand tall and walk strong again.

What Is Foot Pain?
Foot pain can show up in many ways—under the heel, across the arch, in the ball of the foot, or even at the toes. It may be sharp, burning, stiff, or just plain frustrating.
And because your feet interact with every step, dysfunction here can trigger problems up the entire kinetic chain.
Common signs and symptoms include:
-
Sharp pain in the heel (especially in the morning)
-
Burning, tingling, or numbness in the feet or toes
-
Arch pain or weakness
-
Stiffness or aching after walking or standing
-
Pain that worsens with activity or certain shoes
-
Feeling like you're “walking on a pebble” or can’t fully bear weight
Did You Know? The average person walks over 100,000 miles in their lifetime—that’s the equivalent of circling the Earth four times. Imagine the wear on your feet!

Common Causes of Foot Pain
Foot pain can have multiple causes, and at Rise Chiropractic, we take a full-body approach to figure out why it’s happening—not just where it hurts.
Plantar Fasciitis
Inflammation of the thick band of tissue under the foot, often causing heel or arch pain, especially in the morning.
Neuropathy / Neuroma
Nerve damage or irritation (often from diabetes, disc issues, or poor circulation) that causes burning, numbness, or tingling.
Flat Feet or Collapsed Arches
Poor foot mechanics can create strain throughout the entire foot and up the kinetic chain into the knees and hips.
Overuse or Poor Footwear
Standing, walking, or training on hard surfaces—or wearing unsupportive shoes—can overload joints and soft tissue.
Spinal or Nerve Compression
Sometimes foot pain originates in the spine or sciatic nerve, especially when symptoms include numbness or radiating pain.
Old Injuries or Compensation Patterns
Ankle sprains, falls, or altered walking mechanics can leave behind imbalances that cause long-term foot stress.
Fun Fact: Your feet contain 26 bones, 33 joints, and over 100 muscles and ligaments—no wonder they’re so sensitive when things go wrong!

Why Orthotics or Injections Alone Aren’t Enough
Custom orthotics may help in the short term—but they often don’t correct the underlying dysfunction. And cortisone injections? They may reduce inflammation temporarily, but they do nothing to restore healthy movement or nerve function.
Did You Know? Overuse of orthotics can actually weaken the foot’s natural support muscles, creating more problems over time.
That’s why we work to strengthen your feet from the inside out—so you don’t become dependent on inserts, medications, or pads.
