A symptom returning between visits does NOT mean that what was addressed previously has come back. What it usually means is that there are simply more facets to the problem that haven't yet been addressed. Once all these have been resolved, the symptoms go away and stay gone. Many problems, especially those that have had time to develop, simply can't be fully resolved all at once.

Staying hydrated isn't just about feeling better in some nebulous way. With proper hydration over time, the ability of your connective tissues to re-hydrate increases, leading to increased soft-tissue mobility and often less pain.

I follow those steps when treating plantar fascititis

Tarsal tunnel syndrome stems from entrapment of the tibial nerve under the flexor retinaculum of the ankle. In addition to numbness, burning and tingling on the inside of the foot and ankle, it's common to get pain on the BOTTOM of the foot as well, leading to this sometimes getting misdiagnosed as plantar fasciitis. My go to for this is release of the retinaculum and tibial nerve using ART (active release) and working on correcting foot/ankle motion and position. Importantly though, I also address the entire sciatic nerve tract, of which the tibial nerve is part. Entrapment or pinching anywhere along the tract can make the tarsal tunnel more vulnerable.
