Where do you get your statistics? In particular, what is your source on the “95%” of plantar fasciitis patients wlll respond to non-surgical treatment? In my practice those numbers are closer to 65%. I have not read any medical literature that states what you have stated.

83 percent of patients involved in stretching programs were successfully treated, and 29 percent of patients in the study cited stretching as the treatment that had helped the most compared with use of orthotics, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), ice, steroid injection, heat, heel cups, night splints, walking, plantar strapping and shoe changes.
