If your looking for shockwave therapy for plantar fasciitis….we can help!
Plantar fasciitis is one of the most common causes of heel pain, affecting millions of people each year. If you’re dealing with stabbing pain in your heel—especially when you first get out of bed in the morning—you might already be familiar with how frustrating and limiting this condition can be.
Fortunately, there’s a proven treatment option that’s helping patients heal faster and avoid surgery: shockwave therapy.
At Pursuit Physical Therapy in Orlando, FL, we specialize in providing cutting-edge shockwave therapy for plantar fasciitis, helping our patients get back to doing what they love—pain-free.
What Is Shockwave Therapy?
Shockwave therapy, also known as extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT), is a non-invasive treatment that uses acoustic sound waves to stimulate healing in damaged tissues. These sound waves trigger your body’s natural healing response, increase blood flow, and break up scar tissue—helping reduce pain and inflammation.
For chronic plantar fasciitis that hasn’t responded to traditional methods like stretching, orthotics, or rest, shockwave therapy offers a powerful, evidence-based solution.
How Shockwave Therapy Helps Treat Plantar Fasciitis
Shockwave therapy offers several key benefits when used for plantar fasciitis:
✅ Stimulates Tissue Regeneration
The sound waves activate cellular repair processes in the plantar fascia, helping the tissue heal faster and stronger.
✅ Reduces Chronic Inflammation
Shockwave therapy helps break the pain cycle by decreasing inflammation and improving blood flow to the heel.
✅ Breaks Down Scar Tissue
Many chronic cases of plantar fasciitis involve scarred, thickened tissue. Shockwave can break up this buildup, restoring normal function.
✅ Speeds Up Recovery
Most patients begin to feel improvement after just a few sessions, often returning to walking, working out, or sports within weeks.
✅ Avoids Surgery
Because it’s non-invasive and safe, shockwave therapy can help patients avoid cortisone injections or surgery altogether.
