Shockwave for Plantar Fasciitis
Relief for Plantar Fasciitis: How Shockwave Therapy Can Help
Plantar fasciitis, a common cause of heel pain, occurs when the plantar fascia—a thick band of tissue that supports the arch of your foot—becomes inflamed or damaged. It’s often caused by overuse, improper footwear, or repetitive strain, leading to stabbing pain that can disrupt daily activities. While traditional treatments like stretching, orthotics, or anti-inflammatory medications can provide relief, shockwave therapy offers a cutting-edge solution for long-term healing.
Shockwave therapy uses high-energy sound waves to target the root cause of plantar fasciitis. These waves penetrate deep into the tissue, stimulating blood flow and promoting the body’s natural healing processes. It also helps break down scar tissue and calcifications, which are common in chronic cases. The result? Reduced inflammation, improved tissue regeneration, and long-lasting pain relief.
This non-invasive treatment is particularly beneficial for individuals who haven’t found success with other options or are looking to avoid surgery. Most sessions take only 15-20 minutes, and patients typically notice improvements within a few weeks.
