Shockwave Therapy for Plantar Fasciitis

Available at Our Office in VI Medical Foundation Building 202

Plantar fasciitis is a common cause of heel pain, resulting from inflammation or micro-tears in the thick band of tissue (plantar fascia) that runs along the bottom of your foot, connecting your heel bone to your toes.

How Shockwave Therapy Helps

Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (ESWT) is a non-invasive, advanced treatment that delivers targeted high-energy sound waves to the affected area. This stimulates your body's natural healing process by:

- Increasing blood flow and promoting new blood vessel formation

- Breaking down scar tissue and calcifications

- Reducing inflammation and pain through nerve overstimulation

- Encouraging tissue regeneration and collagen production

Clinical studies show significant pain relief and improved function for many patients with chronic plantar fasciitis, often avoiding more invasive options like injections or surgery.

What to Expect in Our Office

Treatments are quick (typically 10-15 minutes per session), require no anesthesia, and involve applying the handheld device directly to the heel.

Many patients experience noticeable improvement after just a few sessions. If you're struggling with persistent heel pain, contact our office to see if shockwave therapy is right for you!
