Taping your foot:
A sports therapist friend showed me how to wrap my foot with an 'arch
support' type wrap. I kept the wrap on all the while I was either walking
or running. I also iced my foot for 20 minutes 3 times daily using an ice
massage technique. Freeze a dixie cup full of water with a tongue
depressor for a handle. Peel the cup away from the ice and massage the
injured area for 20 minutes. [This paragraph comes from heelspur.com, as do
the two taping diagrams, below. ]
