The short answer is yes. Heel pain from plantar fasciitis is very common among high-impact sports like tumbling or gymnastics that place a lot of strain and impact on the plantar fascia ligament, which runs along the bottom of the foot. Gymnastics shoes are specially designed to provide comfort and flexibility with every step, and here at Elite Gymnastics, we provide a variety of shoe types to suit your specific ability and/or discipline.

Sever’s Disease is a common condition in children ages 8-15 that, like plantar fasciitis, causes heel pain and discomfort while walking or standing.

Regardless of whether you class yourself as a beginner or an advanced gymnast, what you wear on your feet could mean the difference between reaching your potential and having your training cut short by an injury or simple wear & tear. That’s why our collection of gymnastic shoes includes gym slippers, beam shoes, gymnastics footwear and more. This ensures that you have the support you need to meet your gymnastic goals.Since gymnastics is most often a sport performed by young people, it’s possible that the heel pain is not plantar fasciitis at all, but Sever’s disease.

If you or a loved one tumble, it’s important to know the warning signs, risk factors, and steps to treat plantar fasciitis before it interferes with the sport you love. Heavy practice weeks, injuries that destabilise the foot and surrounding muscle groups, gymnastics routines that involve a lot of heavy impact or jumps and sudden movements can take a heavy toll on the plantar fascia. The fascia may flatten, making it difficult to absorb impact properly. And as damage compounds, the fascia may sustain small tears and micro-injuries that lead to pain and inflammation as it begins to deteriorate.

Take the time to explore our wide range of gymnastics shoes today and find the perfect pair for your feet.

Unlike plantar fasciitis, which is caused by strain and deterioration of the plantar fascia, Sever’s Disease develops when the heel bone (one of the first bones to reach full size) develops faster than the surrounding ligaments and muscles, making it more vulnerable to injury and trauma from high-impact activities like gymnastics!
