Deep, dull heel pain isn’t always caused by inflammation.
In many long-standing cases, pressure plays a much bigger role.
This video explains how heel pain is assessed in clinic by combining plantar pressure analysis with movement assessment — looking not only at where discomfort is felt, but how force travels through the foot and how the body moves above it.
Understanding pressure patterns, limb asymmetry, and joint motion helps guide more targeted treatment planning, particularly for symptoms that are worse with standing and difficult to shift.
If heel pain feels deep, persistent, or pressure-related, a more detailed assessment can help identify what’s contributing to ongoing tissue stress.
