Every morning i had pain under my feet when i got out of bed, just did the stretching of my feet and instantly the pain was gone, wow amazing, Thanks lovey 😊 my 77 year old feet are grateful.
i use stairs 10-20 times a day and i used to get knee pain , once i started taking 60k ius per week the pain went away instantly , you are a life save mr. eric . the world needs more people like you
Been taking 20k IUs for a month and this entierly went away. I stopped to let my body's food stores catch up (I am severely depleted) and within two days the pain returned
I'm suffering with Planter fasciatis for the past 18months. Consulted 2 orthopedics who didn't ask me to do vit D test at all but gave pain killers. I follow you since long time. After seeing your videos on vitamin D, I decided to do the test which turned out to be deficient. So I started taking d3 with k2 and my pain started reducing considerably. I then increased my daily D dosage from 6000iu to 10000iu. Within 2 weeks(since last month) I'm completely out of the pain. I'm still continuing the same dosage. My family was bit worried for going on self medication. But I was so sure that this would solve my issue n it did. Thanks a tonne.
Thank you for sharing your incredible journey! It's amazing to hear how addressing your vitamin D deficiency made such a significant difference in your plantar fasciitis pain. Your proactive approach and belief in understanding your body truly paid off. While self-medication should always be approached cautiously, your results highlight the importance of exploring underlying causes. Wishing you continued health and success-your story is inspiring!
Almost 2 years suffering whit plantar fasciitis doing the wrong thing to reduce the pain😢😮 and you give me the correct information and now I’m almost pain free in two days!!! You are a blessing from heaven
WONDERFUL! I have Plantar Facilititis in my right foot after walking a few miles. I love to walk a lot, and use a treadmill at a fast pace almost daily for years but never had it before in either foot. When I got it, I didn't even know what it was or what went wrong. I did my research and found out. Of course, I found many references to use the usual wrong stretching methods and message. I did purchase a pair of Dr. Scholl's specialized insoles for my shoes and I must say they started to work almost immediately and lessened the pain, but it was still there especially after periods of inactivity. The issue has improved to almost no pain in about four weeks, but it still was a bother as I walked and used the treadmill. Then, a funny thing happened just a few days before I saw this video. I started taking more Magnesium because of your recently reiterated advice about it assisting vitamin D. All of a sudden the pain is almost completely gone but I didn't really notice it until I bumped into this video and found out why! Thank you again, Dr, Berg!!
@@RobPireshe often explains that magnesium glycinate gets absorbed much better than other types of magnesium, like magnesium oxide which only gets absorbed at 3%.
I've never been diagnosed with Plantar Faciitis. However I've had chronic foot pain for almost a decade. I was watching this and thought , "What's the worst that can happen? It works?" It did! Wow! Thank you for that. Pain went from a 6 to a 0 in an instant.
Everything you have said to do, works!!! I had been doing all of this lately for my "bad foot", which goes in and out of planter faucitis. I started sitting on my feet at least twice a day (with my yoga) a month ago and have been taking 5000mg of Mag Gly + 20000iu of D3/K2 a day several months ago for my Fibromyalgia.
That’s amazing to hear you’ve found relief and improvements by incorporating these practices into your routine! It’s inspiring how proactive you’ve been with your yoga, supplements, and overall self-care. Wishing you continued success in managing both plantar fasciitis and fibromyalgia-your story is a testament to the power of consistency and holistic health approaches!
unbelievable how much relief from the stretch alone.... i did my blood work to find out i am deficient in vitamin D and magnesium .... this video is exactly what you need to cure this problem... within days i was back to normal and beginning to feel even better ...thanks so much
I have suffered for years... The pain is so bad in my heels I want to shuffle instead of walking... This stretch is the EXACT opposite of what I have painfully endured in P.T!!! They should be all FIRED!!!! I Immediately grabbed my Magnesium Glycinate and D3!!! Diet is the next step!!! Thank you so much. My gf Tajuana turned this household onto you and your products. We LOVE YOU!!!!!!
I’ve been taking vitamin D and Magnesium for four months and it has reduced the pain but… those stretches are gold! Instant relief from over 3 years’ pain. Thanks so much!
I woke up in severe pain from PF because I walked 30 minutes home last night. Got up at 2am to go to the bathroom and almost fell from the pain when I tried to get off the bed. I have been dealing with PF for a few months now and this morning, I had enough of the pain and went looking for help. I did the recommended stretches but still in pain. I saw the Dr Berg video on PF a few minutes ago, did the stretches and my pain went from 8 to 1 in just one try. Thank you Dr Berg!! I will work on changing my diet next.
I suffered with Plantar Fasciitis for months. That first step out of bed had me sweating because I knew it would hurt. I stumbled upon your older video on this topic and did the exercise and it dramatically reduced the pain from an off the chart to about a 2-3 range. I kept doing the exercise periodically and it went away altogether. Amazing!! Thank you for the added info about magnesium and vitamin D3.
I wish I had this information 20 years ago. I suffered for so long! As usual, Dr. Berg, you are right on point I went carnivore a year ago and imagine my surprise when my planter fasciitis disappeared!
Shoes are number 4. Certain shoes are recommended for this. Wearing flip flops was my initial cause.. Your stretch and other advice is awesome. Thank you
Yes, shoes for me too. Almost two decades standing on concrete floors at work. 10 hour days with old Georgia Boot Romeos had me scared of how much pain I was in. Switched back to my old Dr. Martens with new insoles and so much better.
thank you for sharing your knowledge, I'm running again, unbelievable, I ended up soaking with apple cider/epson salt because thats what other says..Dr Eric your video pops up and what a blessing..2/3 days after doing the opposite exercise the pain disappeared. 62 yr old lady will forever thank you.
My over 3 years terrible foot pain is gone just 2 weeks that streching advice!! Docktor couldnt help me or give me wrong advice. Super thanks to this. Now i can walk 10km without any pain!
I had pain in my heel due to PF, and this little stretching exercise is a game-changer. I did one set of stretching while watching this video and it worked wonders. The pain went down to a solid 2 (from a 7ish I'd say) and I felt instant relief. I will continue to do this exercise as long as I have pain. Thank you.
OH WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I had this after a long intense hike with my daughter, both feet hurt the next day but one would not stop. IT was a full year of stretching the wrong way, and just taking it easy before it healed on it's own. Wish I knew this stuff then. (Wish the worthless foot doctor I tried did too.) I've been doing keto now for a few years so that I'm sure helped, and upped the D, k2 etc etc after discovering your channel. I tell ya, type 2 diabetes is gone, high BP, way down. Lost a ton of fat, (still more to go) In fact I still wear the belt I bought before finding your channel. Just to show people..... where I once buckled it, a whole lot more holes needed to be cut into this thing, a good extra FOOT of belt now is not needed. It's my badge of honor though. Thank you SO much. I sure hope you can get involved with Trump and Kennedy, the knowledge you have accumulated and now share needs to get out there more.
Having severe planter factoid for 35 years and seeing a half dozen podiatrists (who only recommended inserts and cortisone shots) and trying what you recommended I never got relief. Then I finally saw a newly recommended podiatrist and He recommended stretching and lengthening my calf muscles using a wall corner, a wedge etc. it took a few weeks to gently stretch and lengthen my calves, and for the first time in decades I’m pain free. (I continue to stretch my calves occasionally)
I have a problem with sciatica, please help! Thank you. I’m your big fan . I watch every videos and thanks to you I do fasting for almost 3 years already.
He’s made several awesome videos on sciatica. Also search his videos on b1, D3&K2, magnesium glycinate, b12 and b6 and on reasons for deficiency in these nutrients.
I am 58 years old facing this problem (Planter's fasciitis)from past one year and I am diabetic From past 25 years. I lost hope in my life and come to a conclusion that I will not take any medical help.Because they give same priscriptions which doesn't work after. But Dr Berg's idea are fantastic and we can trust and especially i will start doing this excercise from today itself and hope to resolve my condition. Thank you Dr Berg🙏🏽🙏🏽
Just did it. Dr. Berg’s directions work! I do IF, low carb already. I use toe separators and better fitting shoes but still had a lingering pain in left foot. Went from 7 to 0 this morning after first try in 2 minutes! Now this will be part of my daily routine.
Thank goodness for Dr Berg. I had such pain in my left foot for months that I’ve been dealing, I finally made an appointment with a podiatrist they x-rayed and examined my foot. Gave me a boot to sleep with and told me to stretch out the muscle and ice as frequently as possible. If it didn’t get better he was talking cortisol shots and even surgery. Omg! I went to my favorite homeopathic chiro I love him! Dr. Simone in the poconos. He told me to do the opposite. Higher ache heal, no stretching out it tares the muscle and ice it. It feels better. I will be adding Dr, Bergs methods so it stops the pain. Dr. Berg is absolutely amazing.
Thank you so much! I'll be sharing your videos so others can benefit too. I was skeptical at first, but after the first set of exercises, I felt a 90% reduction in pain-something I haven't experienced my whole life when I do that exercise. 🙏🏼❤️
THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH! I listen to your videos each day and follow your advice. My health has shown major improvements and my Plantar Fasciitis and vertigo are gone now. I had been to so many doctors and none of them could help me. I wish I would have known you a couple years ago when everything started. I had a rash on my arm and leg that started after surgery to drain my knee. I was never told the causes of anything. They scraped the sores on my arm to get the cells tested and called me with a vague diagnosis. They said it was a fungus that you normally see in pets. I tried everything under the sun and bought hundreds of antifungal creams and ointments. After months of this, I finally started taking some probiotics that helped. No thanks to any doctors or dermatologists. I understand what was going on now that I've listened to you! I can now prevent it from ever happening again. I have the scars to remind me to eat keto and take my vitamin D3. Thank you again!
I have been in pain for 2 days with my right foot. The stretching gave me instant stress and pain release :-). I have been taken Magnesium, Vit. D and K2 not regularly and in a much lower dosis as you recommended in your video. Your video is inspiring me to stick to my "supplements-plan". Thank you for your precious advice. Greetings from Germany. I wish you and your loved ones all the best for 2025 :-)
I saw the original video and completely cured my plantar fasciitis. I have shared that video with so many people I wouldn't even be able to count how many. Haven't had the pain since.
I had planters and didn’t know much about it actually thought I bruised my foot badly until realized pain wasn’t going away . I started a yoga practice which incorporates the stretch shown sitting on your feet stretching your tibialis anterior and pain went away . The vitamin D and magnesium and low carbs is excellent and very effective for keeping pain away and healthy
Good morning and thank Doc, I have been going through this pain and looking for a solution, I thank God for you across my way, I am grateful and will heed your advice 🙏🏼🙏🏼
Please do a video on the medical industry standard of dealing with childrens constipation that recommends extended use of laxatives. Please talk about the pros and cons of this program for your subscribers who are parents of young children 🙏🙏🙏
Dr. Berg helped educate me a lot on so many subjects. I started watching him about 3 years ago, when I was sick. I had always been pre-diabetic, but decided to seriously tackle this problem, as I wouldn't consider going on Metformin. I had heel pain for many years. When I took up the Ketovore lifestyle after seeing his vids, along with taking VD3, magnesium and a few of his recommended supplements, that pain went away. I am now Keto/Carnivore and my blood glucose levels improved. Even if heel pain isn't related, I have not felt this better in years. Thank you Dr. Berg!
Mind blown! My pain had been lessening and I just thought it had improved on its own but I had been starting a low carb diet and spraying magnesium oil on my feet. It all makes sense. I need to work vitamin D into my routine. Thank you!
👋 "Thank you, Dr. Berg, for your amazing content! As a Muslim, I practice dry fasting twice a week along with regular exercise. Could you please create another video to provide more details about dry fasting, its benefits, and how it supports overall health? Your insights would be greatly appreciated!"
Hello Dr. Berg, I suffered for a year and half for plantar fasciitis in both feet were painful. Since then, so have being stretches all my body and wear comfortable sneakers. Thank you very much for share your experience and knowledge.👍❤️🙏
This makes so much sense now. My magnesium levels are terrible and I'm equally terrible at consistency when taking vitamins. My plantar fasciitis tends to come and go, ranging from non existent to limping around for weeks.
Impeccable timing! I've worked in restaurants in casinos for 20 years, and now I work in recovery as a housekeeper, so I've always beat the heck out of my feet. And boy, have they been killing me lately, especially my right foot. Thank you so much, Dr. Berg, because almost everything else I try seems to cause Charlie horses in my calves. Edit: I've been taking Magnesium Glycinate and Vit D3 and K2 for about a month now!❤
I highly recommend doing the stretches! I had it so bad. After 10 minutes of stretching I could actually walk without pain. I stretch every time I feel the slightest pain. Let us know if it works for him. Good luck 🍀
@betsybugsmith5324 yes he's got it bad too..!!gets better with rest but the moment he walks it's painful..he says tie my foot in the stretch position lol!! Hopefully this will help thanks 💚
Dr. Berg, you truly are a godsend. I have been dealing with debilitating lower back pain and was actually laid up in bed this week, which was supposed be my vacation. I have been dealing with plantar fasciitis for years and doing the wrong stretches, and fortunately, I was able to relieve it slightly but the lower back pain has been an issue for years and so much so this time around that it was actually making my stomach muscles hurt. I am ordering your D/K2 and magnesium as we speak! Thank you so much. More to follow.
This works. I didnt know about this stretch and I accidentally did it during Christmas while we were sitting down on the floor to open gifts. During this time I was recovering from joint pain in my foot. I had about a level 3 pain during this time and I noticed after sitting on top of my feet as was shown in the video I felt a lot more relief.
OMG!! constant pain for 4 nights/days straight, 😢😢 I just listened to this video and did the stretch for couple of times my pain dropped to 1-2 from 9-10 You’re a blessing Dr, Berg!! Glad my brother sent me your video , THANK YOU 🙏🏼 ❤
This is good . I've had this and it's awful. But I cannot get on my knees at all not even on the bed..... The diet and vitamin information is brilliant!
I also put my fingers between my toes, from underneath my foot, pushing back the toes. Then I circle my foot counter clockwise as far up and down it can go, (don’t forget to circle) then clockwise, twenty times each. You will hear a lot of cracking. Gosh my feet feel so much better.
I needed this as I do feel heel pain a lot after running, I started taking magnesium and vit D a week or so ago, and also have ACV every morning I have noticed a difference for sure! Love your page Dr Berg ❤
OMG😮!!! This is a gift from God!!😭 I have been in so much severe pain for close to a year and the last six months or so has been BRUTAL pain a 10 rating is an understatement!!! The heel of my right foot feels like the sharp bone is about to cut through my foot it is SO PAINFUL!! The doctor had me setup for therapy but it's definitely not affordable when my daughter is already in therapy for foot and leg pain the same as myself so I put her first but I been doing all the frozen water bottles rolling under my foot and the wall stretching and the exercises you showed NOT to do and I was put in a boot up to my knee that causes more pain in my left knee to help my right foot...I did it all and nothing they told me to do works and I am so blessed that I didn't go through therapy after seeing this video. Well I did your simple exercise and INSTANTLY my pain went from WELL OVER 10 RATING TO A 1 OR 2 RATING😭🥰🥳.....I have not been able to get up and straight walk without me severely limping in so much pain in so many months and today I got up and walked immediately after this stretch!!! What a blessing you are, you gave me a major portion of my life back because I already live in chronic pain for 24 years from a car accident and I have so much pain all over my body and not sure why and I follow your channel and learn so much and I THANK GOD FOR YOUR GIFT OF WISDOM AND KNOWLEDGE GOD HAS GIVEN TO YOU....THANK YOU DR BERG I AM IN AWE!!😭
I've had plenty of success with calf stretches for plantar fasciitis. Then again this includes reciprocal inhibition through activation of tibialis anterior. I've helped carpenters get back on ladders, kids avoid a walking boot for "growth plate syndrome", and plenty of runners. Pro tip: if you keep your knee straight during a calf stretch it hits lower on the calf and brings substantially more relief to the foot than bent knee calf stretches 🙏
Hi Dr Berg, Does this exercise work for heel pad pain, if not do you have one on heel pad pain please. Love your advice and videos....Tina (Dublin, Ireland ☘️)
Thank you Dr. Berg! You continue to change my life for the better. I share your videos and website to anyone that wants to change their situation with their health. 😇
I pray to God that everyone who is reading this gets better and stays healthy. What helped me is using the herbs from the book the hidden herbs by anette ray
I learnt this handy tip from you, in an earlier video! I had such a problem with it, I was limping, so much pain. However, after the stretches I had a release from the pain, almost instantly! I was amazed. Since then I have told numerous people about that video and your advice. Some dietary changes and adjustments with vitamins followed. I do the stretches if I even feel a twinge of PF ... I seem to be cured of it, as I haven't had any problems in a long time! THANK YOU SO MUCH! You are amazing! You are a true Blessing in our lives.
Wow! Thanks. I will certainly give this a try and share this video as I know many others who, like me, suffer from Plantar Fasciitis. I take Vitamin D and Magnesium supplements daily, but I also take Calcium daily (ordered by my Gynaecologist). I will check the amounts I'm currently taking and make up the difference if deficient. Many thanks.
Awesome, absolutely awesome topic.Thankful dr Berg for your wonderful technique, it's so helpful.Happy new year to you and your family aslo to your team. ❤
Thank you. You were reading my mind. This issue first started this year. I noticed its because i was walking all over the place while i did travel content
I had this for 3 years it was very painful at night 😢.....I had to wear a boot and go to physical therapy for years and for other reasons, After taking a look at my Diet I noticed pictures of what I was eating I started taking away some of my meals to see if it would help with my feet and ankle I cut out most of my nuts, I stopped using Can whipped topping, cheap brands olive oils and more Long story short after about 3 months It was the veggies burgers BEYOND burgers it took me about 2 or 3 weeks and the pain was completely gone ❤ someone on Dr. Berg community page told me to take a look at what I was eating and This is the reason why I read the comments from Dr Berg and Dr Ekberg videos

I went to my favorite homeopathic chiro I love him! Dr. Simone in the poconos. He told me to do the opposite. Higher ache heal, no stretching out it tares the muscle and ice it. It feels better. I will be adding Dr, Bergs methods so it stops the pain. Dr. Berg is absolutely amazing.
Thank you so much! I'll be sharing your videos so others can benefit too. I was skeptical at first, but after the first set of exercises, I felt a 90% reduction in pain-something I haven't experienced my whole life when I do that exercise. 🙏🏼❤️
Dr BERG Happy new year , Thanks for all you do.
Thank you Dr Berg!!!!! You're the greatest!!!!!❤
THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH! I listen to your videos each day and follow your advice. My health has shown major improvements and my Plantar Fasciitis and vertigo are gone now. I had been to so many doctors and none of them could help me. I wish I would have known you a couple years ago when everything started. I had a rash on my arm and leg that started after surgery to drain my knee. I was never told the causes of anything. They scraped the sores on my arm to get the cells tested and called me with a vague diagnosis. They said it was a fungus that you normally see in pets. I tried everything under the sun and bought hundreds of antifungal creams and ointments. After months of this, I finally started taking some probiotics that helped. No thanks to any doctors or dermatologists. I understand what was going on now that I've listened to you! I can now prevent it from ever happening again. I have the scars to remind me to eat keto and take my vitamin D3. Thank you again!
Great. Also, some of his videos on scars / skin repair may help too.
I agree with all of them. These stretches are so relaxing. Thank you
Thanks Doc, I was just encountering this issue yesterday and today after playing basketball. Great tips!
Ok. He’s made more awesome videos on this that should be known too.
I have been in pain for 2 days with my right foot. The stretching gave me instant stress and pain release :-). I have been taken Magnesium, Vit. D and K2 not regularly and in a much lower dosis as you recommended in your video. Your video is inspiring me to stick to my "supplements-plan". Thank you for your precious advice. Greetings from Germany. I wish you and your loved ones all the best for 2025 :-)
Hi. Doctor my friend's big toe hurts could you please give us advice for her thank you so very much for all your teachings❤
See his videos on toe pain and on pain / inflammation as well as on vitamin D3&K2.
I saw the original video and completely cured my plantar fasciitis. I have shared that video with so many people I wouldn't even be able to count how many. Haven't had the pain since.
You are just miraculous dr.Iam hooked to your simple cumulative explained
Plantar fasciitis relief that works instantly? This sounds like a game-changer-can't wait to try it out and see the results!
I had planters and didn’t know much about it actually thought I bruised my foot badly until realized pain wasn’t going away . I started a yoga practice which incorporates the stretch shown sitting on your feet stretching your tibialis anterior and pain went away . The vitamin D and magnesium and low carbs is excellent and very effective for keeping pain away and healthy
DrBerg is an amazing dr,I have learnt and admire DrBerg as supperHero in medical area.❤
Good morning and thank Doc, I have been going through this pain and looking for a solution, I thank God for you across my way, I am grateful and will heed your advice 🙏🏼🙏🏼
Wow. He’s made more videos with more data.
Please do a video on the medical industry standard of dealing with childrens constipation that recommends extended use of laxatives. Please talk about the pros and cons of this program for your subscribers who are parents of young children 🙏🙏🙏
Wow. Some of his videos on laxatives and on constipation may help in the meantime.
You are blessing for us❤❤❤
Invaluable advice and educational information!
Thank you so much
Dr. Berg!
You are humanitarian awesome!
I appreciate you ... your outstanding professional advice and your expertise..
Selfless young man..❤❤❤
Dr. Berg helped educate me a lot on so many subjects. I started watching him about 3 years ago, when I was sick. I had always been pre-diabetic, but decided to seriously tackle this problem, as I wouldn't consider going on Metformin. I had heel pain for many years. When I took up the Ketovore lifestyle after seeing his vids, along with taking VD3, magnesium and a few of his recommended supplements, that pain went away. I am now Keto/Carnivore and my blood glucose levels improved. Even if heel pain isn't related, I have not felt this better in years. Thank you Dr. Berg!
Mind blown! My pain had been lessening and I just thought it had improved on its own but I had been starting a low carb diet and spraying magnesium oil on my feet. It all makes sense. I need to work vitamin D into my routine. Thank you!
How ironic that I have plantar fasciitis right now, and this video popped up first on my subscription page. Thank you!
I believe historically speaking we flare with these type of issues around the holidays. It's a carby sorta time of year. Cheers and good luck.
Coincidence*, there's no irony in that situation
It's neither coincidence nor ironic, the algorithms know what videos to serve you based on the other things Google is using to track you online...
He’s made other videos on the same subject which may help further.
I just like Dr. Berg. Helpful stuff, everything he posts. Thank You.
Thank you Dr Berg for sharing this video. May God blessed you and your family!
Happy that you found it useful!
👋
"Thank you, Dr. Berg, for your amazing content! As a Muslim, I practice dry fasting twice a week along with regular exercise. Could you please create another video to provide more details about dry fasting, its benefits, and how it supports overall health? Your insights would be greatly appreciated!"
Bless you and thank you, always!
Hello Dr. Berg, I suffered for a year and half for plantar fasciitis in both feet were painful. Since then, so have being stretches all my body and wear comfortable sneakers. Thank you very much for share your experience and knowledge.👍❤️🙏
Thank you doctor.
I am a massage therapist and also helping lots of my clients that have plantar fasciitis. This video thought me new things!
I mean, in this video I learned new things.
Love him!!! Thank you Doc your the best
This makes so much sense now. My magnesium levels are terrible and I'm equally terrible at consistency when taking vitamins. My plantar fasciitis tends to come and go, ranging from non existent to limping around for weeks.
Impeccable timing! I've worked in restaurants in casinos for 20 years, and now I work in recovery as a housekeeper, so I've always beat the heck out of my feet. And boy, have they been killing me lately, especially my right foot. Thank you so much, Dr. Berg, because almost everything else I try seems to cause Charlie horses in my calves. Edit: I've been taking Magnesium Glycinate and Vit D3 and K2 for about a month now!❤
Great. Also see his videos on right side’s issues and on the gallbladder.
I'm starting today. I'm hopeful to reduce my pain..
Wow!! I immediately tried the stretch while watching this video and it was literally a miraculous.
Thanks for trying it out. Happy weekend!
Thank youuuuu, learning alot
Thank you❤🙏husband suffering with it at moment 🤲🤲
I highly recommend doing the stretches! I had it so bad. After 10 minutes of stretching I could actually walk without pain. I stretch every time I feel the slightest pain. Let us know if it works for him. Good luck 🍀
@betsybugsmith5324 yes he's got it bad too..!!gets better with rest but the moment he walks it's painful..he says tie my foot in the stretch position lol!! Hopefully this will help thanks 💚
I appreciate all your advice. God bless you.
Dr. Berg, you truly are a godsend. I have been dealing with debilitating lower back pain and was actually laid up in bed this week, which was supposed be my vacation. I have been dealing with plantar fasciitis for years and doing the wrong stretches, and fortunately, I was able to relieve it slightly but the lower back pain has been an issue for years and so much so this time around that it was actually making my stomach muscles hurt. I am ordering your D/K2 and magnesium as we speak! Thank you so much. More to follow.
This works. I didnt know about this stretch and I accidentally did it during Christmas while we were sitting down on the floor to open gifts. During this time I was recovering from joint pain in my foot. I had about a level 3 pain during this time and I noticed after sitting on top of my feet as was shown in the video I felt a lot more relief.
OMG!! constant pain for 4 nights/days straight, 😢😢
I just listened to this video and did the stretch for couple of times my pain dropped to 1-2 from 9-10
You’re a blessing Dr, Berg!! Glad my brother sent me your video , THANK YOU 🙏🏼 ❤
Wonderful to hear from you. Very glad the information was helpful. Keep doing great!
Thanks for the reminder
Salute to you, Dr Berg
A1 information thanks 👍
This is good . I've had this and it's awful. But I cannot get on my knees at all not even on the bed.....
The diet and vitamin information is brilliant!
I also put my fingers between my toes, from underneath my foot, pushing back the toes. Then I circle my foot counter clockwise as far up and down it can go, (don’t forget to circle) then clockwise, twenty times each. You will hear a lot of cracking. Gosh my feet feel so much better.
Dr. Berg, you are wonderful!!
I needed this as I do feel heel pain a lot after running, I started taking magnesium and vit D a week or so ago, and also have ACV every morning I have noticed a difference for sure! Love your page Dr Berg ❤
OMG😮!!! This is a gift from God!!😭 I have been in so much severe pain for close to a year and the last six months or so has been BRUTAL pain a 10 rating is an understatement!!! The heel of my right foot feels like the sharp bone is about to cut through my foot it is SO PAINFUL!! The doctor had me setup for therapy but it's definitely not affordable when my daughter is already in therapy for foot and leg pain the same as myself so I put her first but I been doing all the frozen water bottles rolling under my foot and the wall stretching and the exercises you showed NOT to do and I was put in a boot up to my knee that causes more pain in my left knee to help my right foot...I did it all and nothing they told me to do works and I am so blessed that I didn't go through therapy after seeing this video. Well I did your simple exercise and INSTANTLY my pain went from WELL OVER 10 RATING TO A 1 OR 2 RATING😭🥰🥳.....I have not been able to get up and straight walk without me severely limping in so much pain in so many months and today I got up and walked immediately after this stretch!!! What a blessing you are, you gave me a major portion of my life back because I already live in chronic pain for 24 years from a car accident and I have so much pain all over my body and not sure why and I follow your channel and learn so much and I THANK GOD FOR YOUR GIFT OF WISDOM AND KNOWLEDGE GOD HAS GIVEN TO YOU....THANK YOU DR BERG I AM IN AWE!!😭
God is imaginary, pray to the sun ☀️ or Zeus
@wmp3346 I am not even going to entertain your ignorance I will PRAY FOR YOU!!!
Great Dr.This is a humble new year gift and your reading of people who have benefited by this shows us the worth. Thanks❤🌹😊
Thanks❤
❤ Another excellent video!!
My 2024 with learning from Dr Berg and especially the comments has helped me so much ❤❤❤ HAPPY NEW YEAR everyone ❤ 🎈
I've had plenty of success with calf stretches for plantar fasciitis. Then again this includes reciprocal inhibition through activation of tibialis anterior. I've helped carpenters get back on ladders, kids avoid a walking boot for "growth plate syndrome", and plenty of runners. Pro tip: if you keep your knee straight during a calf stretch it hits lower on the calf and brings substantially more relief to the foot than bent knee calf stretches 🙏
Very wise man with very wise advice! Thank you Sir!!!
Hi Dr Berg,
Does this exercise work for heel pad pain, if not do you have one on heel pad pain please.
Love your advice and videos....Tina (Dublin, Ireland ☘️)
Thank you Dr. Berg! You continue to change my life for the better. I share your videos and website to anyone that wants to change their situation with their health. 😇
I pray to God that everyone who is reading this gets better and stays healthy. What helped me is using the herbs from the book the hidden herbs by anette ray
Thank you Doctor Berg!
I learnt this handy tip from you, in an earlier video! I had such a problem with it, I was limping, so much pain.
However, after the stretches I had a release from the pain, almost instantly! I was amazed. Since then I have told numerous people about that video and your advice. Some dietary changes and adjustments with vitamins followed.
I do the stretches if I even feel a twinge of PF ... I seem to be cured of it, as I haven't had any problems in a long time!
THANK YOU SO MUCH! You are amazing! You are a true Blessing in our lives.
Same!!! TOTALLY worked! Exact situation… haven’t had that PF pain ever since !!!
That's great news Rosalind! Dr. Berg is the best !!! 🌟
Wow! Thanks. I will certainly give this a try and share this video as I know many others who, like me, suffer from Plantar Fasciitis. I take Vitamin D and Magnesium supplements daily, but I also take Calcium daily (ordered by my Gynaecologist). I will check the amounts I'm currently taking and make up the difference if deficient. Many thanks.
Awesome, absolutely awesome topic.Thankful dr Berg for your wonderful technique, it's so helpful.Happy new year to you and your family aslo to your team. ❤
You are most welcome. Glad the information is helpful. Keep up the good work!

Thank you for your sharing this ❤❤❤
Thank you. You were reading my mind. This issue first started this year. I noticed its because i was walking all over the place while i did travel content
I just did the exercise. Works like magic. Thank you
This man❤ ❤❤❤is a god send
I had this for 3 years it was very painful at night 😢.....I had to wear a boot and go to physical therapy for years and for other reasons, After taking a look at my Diet I noticed pictures of what I was eating I started taking away some of my meals to see if it would help with my feet and ankle
I cut out most of my nuts, I stopped using Can whipped topping, cheap brands olive oils and more Long story short after about 3 months It was the veggies burgers BEYOND burgers it took me about 2 or 3 weeks and the pain was completely gone ❤ someone on Dr. Berg community page told me to take a look at what I was eating and This is the reason why I read the comments from Dr Berg and Dr Ekberg videos
Good job and Happy new year
Thank you Dr. Berg👑🏆
