Is acupuncture good for feet pain?
Asked 4 years ago
I'm curious to know if there are specific pressure points in the feet that can be used in acupuncture to relieve chronic foot pain from plantar fasciitis. I've been going through physical therapy for pain relief but it's taking longer than expected and I was hoping I could benefit from some effective acupuncture.

Acupuncture is a natural approach to pain relief and it is a low-cost treatment that comes with a lot of benefits. Some research has shown that acupuncture can be very useful in treating many forms of foot pain associated with a heel, ankle, etc. However, the study also suggests that acupuncture may reduce plantar fasciitis pain for a short amount of period.
