Therapeutic Foot Massage Old Strathcona
Specialized Massage for Plantar Fasciitis Relief
Plantar fasciitis is a common condition caused by inflammation and irritation of the plantar fascia—the ligament that connects your heel to your toes. It often develops from long periods of standing, improper footwear, overuse, obesity, or exercise, and can lead to persistent heel and foot pain.
At our Old Strathcona clinic near Whyte Ave, a Therapeutic Foot Massage for plantar fasciitis uses deep, targeted strokes to relieve tension, reduce adhesions, and ease pain. This treatment is designed to restore mobility, support healing, and help you get back on your feet with greater comfort.

What to Expect During Your Therapeutic Foot Massage Appointment
If you’re dealing with sore, tender feet or plantar fasciitis, a Therapeutic Foot Massage may be the right treatment for you.
Your session will begin with a short assessment where your therapist reviews your health history, current concerns, and treatment goals. Depending on your needs, you may be asked to partially undress and get comfortable under the linens on the massage table.
Your therapist may use a variety of techniques, including medium to deep tissue massage, muscle stripping, cross-fibre friction, myofascial release, soft tissue release, scar tissue release, and hydrotherapy. These methods are designed to reduce tension, improve mobility, and support healing.
Some discomfort or tenderness may occur during treatment, especially in areas of restriction. Communication is key—let your therapist know how you’re feeling so they can adjust pressure and techniques as needed. Not all conditions require deep tissue work, and your therapist will tailor the session to meet your needs safely and effectively.
After your massage, you may feel relaxed, rejuvenated, and notice reduced foot pain. It’s important to drink plenty of water to help your body flush out any toxins released during treatment. Your therapist may also suggest aftercare tips such as gentle stretches, self-massage techniques, or exercises to support recovery and prevent flare-ups. Follow-up sessions may be recommended to keep your healing on track.
Other Things to Know About Your Therapeutic Foot Massage Appointment
If you’re preparing for a Therapeutic Foot Massage, here are a few helpful tips to make the most of your session:
Arrive a little early – Give yourself time to complete any paperwork and get settled so you can start your treatment relaxed.
Eat light beforehand – A heavy meal can make it harder to relax, while an empty stomach may leave you lightheaded. A light snack or meal one to two hours before your appointment is best.
Stay hydrated – Drink water before and after your massage. Proper hydration helps your body recover, flushes out toxins, and reduces soreness.
Wear comfortable clothing – Loose or athletic wear is ideal. Depending on the treatment plan, you may need to partially undress, but your therapist will always guide you and respect your comfort level.
Communicate openly – Share any discomfort or tension you experience during your massage. Open dialogue helps your therapist adjust techniques so you get the greatest benefit.
Take it easy afterwards – Allow your body time to rest and recover. Avoid strenuous activity immediately after your session and give yourself space to relax.
Follow aftercare advice – Your therapist may suggest stretches, self-massage techniques, or other strategies to support healing and prevent flare-ups. Following these recommendations will help you get the best results.
