Heel pain is the most found illness of foot, affecting 10% of population including both younger as well as elder population. It also affects the lifestyle of these patients. Plantar fasciitis is one of such disorders which can cause heel pain. Plantar fasciitis is the outcome of inflammation of plantar aponeurosis due to its extension on calcaneal tuberosity. Physiotherapy intervention in form of soft tissue mobilization and stretching can be helpful in achieving practical goals. The commonest sites for locating this condition are: 1) Encountering tenderness and pain in medial tubercle of heel bone 2) sore first step in morning and 3) Pain due to extended standing or weight bearing.Instrument Assisted Soft-tissue Mobilization (IASTM) reports in improving soft-tissue mobility in individuals having plantar fasciitis. A 27-year-old female, diagnosed with plantar fasciitis complaining of heel pain and difficulty in walking, undergone physiotherapy for 4 weeks, which develop reduction in pain intensity and increased foot and ankle’s potentials. This case study suggests that physiotherapy intervention given in the form of IASTM led to boosting the functional goals more and more which is a vital aspect leading to a victorious recovery.
