Had a heel injury for a while now and wondering if someone could recommend someone for a reasonable price. Think it is an impact injury on my heel after pushing it too hard on a night run. Dont think it is Plantar Fasciitis, I have been out for 2 months now and not run at all. it also seems to be getting better very slowly, but soon as I start light running it comes back. Especially when going down hills. This is very frustrating I had booked a few races and had big plans for next year...
If someone has some suggestions for what this might be. I have rested too long now, and believe it is time for me to actually see someone about it.
In reply to samsimpson: I can highly recommend sports-med in Stockport.
Physio and podiatry, background in elite sport and reasonably priced as physios go I think. Kept me in one piece which is some feat I can tell you!
www.globaltherapies.com - Based in Glossop so a little out of your way but they're very good and both keen fell runners themselves, so will be able to give you specific advice on running stuff.
A bit out of the OPs area, but a +1 from me. The OPs also going to be looking at a good £300 for the investigation and a set of orthotics, but well worth it in my case.
