Plantar fasciitis and swimming

Swimming is supposed to be a good exercise for people with plantar fasciitis, in that it won't inflame the problem, but I'm starting to wonder if this is true for your typical Masters swimmer. For one, there are a lot of hard pushes off the wall. For another, there is swimming with fins (long fins and zoomers). Does anyone have any experience with this? I can't seem to shake my plantar fasciitis and I wonder if swimming (or at least wall-pushing and swimming with fins) is delaying recovery.

  • I suffered with PF for quite some time. A friend advised trying Birkenstock shoes which I resisted however when all other avenues did not provide relief I decided to give it a whirl. (I decided to try sandals.) Haven't looked back and it's been 3-4 years.
