Do you suffer from heel or tendon pain? Try Shockwave Therapy in Solihull
Heel pain, also known as plantar fasciitis, is a common issue here in the UK, affecting almost 10% of people aged 50 and over. Plantar fasciitis can be caused by a number of factors, including type of shoes, foot structure, overuse and types of walking surfaces. There are several types of treatment for heel pain, including steroid injections and physiotherapy, although it’s very rare for plantar fasciitis to require surgery.
Our solution to heel pain is called “shockwave therapy”, a non-invasive treatment which uses pulses of energy on affected areas of the body to relieve pain and tension. It has a success rate of 85% or more in dealing with Plantar Fasciitis.
Shockwave Therapy for Heel Pain in Solihull
Shockwave therapy can also help with many other non-healing tendonitis injuries. We also have the latest 3D foot scanning systems here at the clinic, which allows us to identify any issues and produce bespoke insoles to rid you of your pain.
In general the pulses are applied to the skin for a few minutes. The exact length of time depends on the condition of the heel but your therapist will discuss this with you beforehand.
This depends on your exact condition but usually 1-3 treatments is enough to start noticing a difference. Your therapist will always discuss this with you.
No although you may feel slight discomfort in your heels in the following days. This is normal and goes down by itself. Since it is a non-intrusive procedure there are no marks or scars on your skin.
Shockwave therapy works by using pulses to create ‘micro-injuries’ which then stimulate the body to heal itself naturally. As well as being used for heel pain it can be used on other parts of the body such as elbow, shoulder and knee.
If you suffer from chronic inflammation and heel pain of plantar fasciitis then Shockwave therapy can make a big difference to you. Using Shockwave therapy you can start walking pain free again without the need for surgery.
