Advanced Technology for Plantar Fasciitis Treatment

When plantar fasciitis stands in your way, our Calgary experts are here to help. We have invested in unique, innovative, and scientifically advanced technology:

Focused Shockwave

Focused Shockwave Therapy

Focused shockwave therapy targets elbow pain by delivering high-energy sound waves to the injured area. These waves stimulate your body’s natural healing mechanisms, promoting blood flow and regeneration of tendon and muscle tissues. This can result in reduced inflammation, pain relief, and improved mobility in your ankle.

Radial Shockwave

Radial Shockwave Therapy

Shockwave therapy delivers high-energy sound waves which stimulates blood flow and promotes healing of the plantar fascia. The therapy helps break down scar tissue and calcifications, reducing pain and inflammation. It encourages tissue regeneration by triggering the body’s natural repair processes.

Laser Treatment

Laser Treatment

Laser therapy delivers concentrated light energy deep into the tissue of your foot. This energy is absorbed by cells, stimulating them to repair damaged tissue and reduce inflammation in the plantar fascia. This promotes healing and reduces inflammation which can lead to decreased pain and stiffness in your heel and arch.

TECAR Radio-frequency

TECAR Radio-frequency

TECAR therapy utilizes radio waves to generate heat deep within tissues along the plantar fascia. This heat improves blood flow, which can reduce inflammation and stimulate healing. TECAR therapy can help alleviate pain and stiffness associated with plantar fasciitis, getting you back on your feet faster.

Medical Management

Medical Management

Our qualified medical team can evaluate and tailor a treatment plan to address plantar fasciitis. Pain relievers and anti-inflammatories can alleviate discomfort and swelling. Corticosteroid injections are another option for localized pain relief and inflammation reduction in the affected area.

ARX Omni Rehab Training

ARX Omni Rehab Training

ARX Omni offers safe and controlled movements with motorized resistance. Our qualified trainers can design a program specifically targeting the muscles around your ankle to promote healing and strength. The machine’s versatility allows for exercises at various angles, thereby improving flexibility and range of motion.

ARX Alpha Strength Training

ARX Alpha Strength Training

ARX Alpha provides highly controlled and adjustable resistance. This enhances muscle strength and stability around the ankle, promoting better support and reducing the risk of further injury. The technology allows for consistent monitoring and adjustments, ensuring optimal load and minimizing strain on the injured area.

Physiotherapy

Physiotherapy

Using manual therapy techniques like massage and mobilization, Physiotherapy improves joint mobility and reduces muscle stiffness. Physiotherapists also prescribe targeted exercises to strengthen supporting muscles and improve balance, promoting long-term pain relief and preventing future injuries.

Soft Tissue Treatment

Soft Tissue Treatment

Soft tissue treatment provides a hands-on method for addressing plantar fasciitis. Massage Therapists utilize massage and manual therapy techniques to enhance blood flow, reduce muscle tension, and decrease inflammation.

Custom Orthotics

Custom Orthotics

Custom orthotics provide tailored support to the foot arch, reducing strain on the plantar fascia. They alleviate pain and discomfort during activities by redistributing pressure more evenly across the foot. Orthotics promote proper foot alignment and improve overall biomechanics, contributing to faster recovery and preventing further injury.

What Causes Plantar Fasciitis?

Plantar fasciitis is primarily caused by excessive strain on the plantar fascia, the thick band of tissue running along the bottom of the foot. Contributing factors include overuse from activities such as running, prolonged standing on hard surfaces, and structural issues like flat feet or high arches that alter weight distribution. Improper footwear lacking adequate support or cushioning can exacerbate this strain, and excess body weight can add further pressure to the plantar fascia during weight-bearing activities. These factors can cause small tears in the plantar fascia, leading to inflammation, pain, and stiffness.

Fasciitis can be more common in middle-aged and older adults. Age-related changes in the plantar fascia, such as loss of elasticity, increase susceptibility to injury. Tight calf muscles or Achilles tendons can heighten tension on the plantar fascia, contributing to inflammation and pain. Additionally, work that requires long periods of standing or walking on hard surfaces can elevate the risk of developing this condition.
