SHOCKWAVE THERAPY FOR PLANTAR FASCIITIS IN SAN JUAN CAPISTRANO, CA
Relief That Goes Beyond Orthotics and Ice
Plantar fasciitis is one of the most common causes of heel pain - and one of the most stubborn. It affects runners, walkers, and anyone who spends long hours on their feet. At Resolve Chiropractic in San Juan Capistrano, we offer a highly effective, non-invasive solution: radial shockwave therapy using advanced Storz Medical technology.
What Is Plantar Fasciitis?
Plantar fasciitis occurs when the thick band of tissue (the plantar fascia) that runs along the bottom of your foot becomes inflamed or micro-torn. Common symptoms include:
Sharp pain with your first steps in the morning
Pain after prolonged standing or walking
Tenderness at the heel or arch
If left untreated, it can become chronic and affect your ability to stay active, exercise, or even perform basic tasks comfortably.
How Shockwave Therapy Helps Plantar Fasciitis
Shockwave therapy delivers high-energy sound waves into the affected heel and fascia. These waves:
Stimulate blood flow and tissue regeneration
Break down scar tissue and calcifications
Decrease pain and inflammation by modulating nerve sensitivity
It’s particularly effective for chronic plantar fasciitis cases that haven’t responded to stretching, orthotics, or rest.
Backed by Research
Multiple clinical studies have shown shockwave therapy to be a safe and effective treatment for plantar fasciitis, with many patients experiencing significant pain reduction within 3–5 sessions.
What to Expect During Treatment
Each session lasts about 10–15 minutes. Most patients describe the treatment as mildly uncomfortable but tolerable, often noting a tapping or pulsing sensation. There’s no downtime - most patients return to normal activity immediately, though some soreness may occur.
