How to use Pain-Free Shockwave Therapy to Treat Persistent Foot Pain

If you suffer from foot pain caused by an injury or condition such as Plantar Fasciitis, you may have tried medicine and special shoes with little to no relief. In this video, Houston Podiatrist, Dr. Andrew Schneider, discusses the effectiveness of shockwave therapy in treating foot pain.

Dr. Schneider explains that shockwave therapy is a medical procedure used to treat a wide range of conditions around the world. He then goes on to discuss the common causes of foot pain, including plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendonitis, Morton's neuroma, ankle sprains, and tendonitis.

Dr. Schneider explains that in his practice, they use a form of shockwave therapy called radial shockwave therapy. This non-invasive treatment uses acoustic waves to stimulate the body's natural healing processes. The Storz shockwave unit, which is considered the gold standard in shockwave therapy, delivers precise and effective shockwaves to the affected areas.

The therapy works by triggering the production of new blood vessels, improving blood flow to the infected areas, and promoting tissue healing. Shockwave therapy also stimulates the production of collagen, which is responsible for soft tissue repair. This can help to strengthen and repair damaged ligaments and tendons, which can be damaged in conditions like Achilles tendonitis and ankle sprains.

The course of treatment for shockwave therapy typically involves one treatment per week for three weeks, with each treatment taking about 15 minutes. There is no medication or injections required, and there is no downtime or recovery required after the treatment. Most people experience significant pain relief within a few days of their first treatment, with pain relief typically improving with each subsequent treatment.
