Products you need to AVOID!!

Penetrex

I don't understand why this stuff sells. It has a small amount of MSM in it and some other ingredients that can "possibly" help you. I couldn't figure out why people were writing such amazing reviews on it, so I decided to give it a shot ( it has a money back guarantee, so why not). I put it on twice a day for about two weeks. I didn't notice ANY change at all in my heel pain. I returned it and got my money back. I was really disappointed. 

I also found other reviews from people with heel pain, and to no surprise it did not help them either.

If you think I am wrong and you have had great results with this cream, than my heel is just being picky. Let me know if you have had good results with it by using my Contact Me page.


 

The Original Pro Stretch

This one has great reviews. It seems to work. But it made my plantar fasciitis worst!! I think it works GREAT if you have mild plantar fasciitis. If you use it with severe plantar fasciitis, and your muscles have active trigger points in them, you are setting yourself up for disaster!! Be very careful if you use this one. If your not, you can hurt your heel ALOT. 

Personal Use Ultrasound Machines

I was really sold on this one when I first bought one. I thought it would cure anything. I found some good reviews so I got really excitied. After doing it everyday for nearly 2 months, I had not a single bit of improvement. It wasn't until after I put it in the closet that a physical therapist told me that the ultrasound waves do not penetrate deep enough to reach my plantar fascia. Huge waste of time, and it cost me quite a bit of money :( Avoid these things as much as possible, even though they seem like a true cure all.
