Plantar Fasciitis

Plantar fasciitis is one of the most common causes of heel pain, often causing stabbing pain usually with your first steps in the morning. Once the foot limbers up, the pain may decrease but usually returns after long periods of standing or after getting up from a seated position.

Until now, treatment options have been limited to medications to control pain, physical therapy to restore strength and range of motion, steroid injection or invasive surgery.

The Tenex TX Technique achieves the same results as surgery, with less pain and a faster recovery time.

The minimally invasive, outpatient procedure is performed through a small incision. The interventional radiologist then uses ultrasound guidance to target the exact location of the painful soft tissue and remove it using a minimally invasive technique. Most people return to normal activities and regain their active lifestyles within six weeks.

If you are experiencing pain of plantar fasciitis, this procedure may be for you. The procedure is covered by insurance. A physician referral is not needed.

The TX Technique treats:

• Plantar fasciitis
• Tennis elbow
• Golfer's elbow
• Jumper's knee
• Achilles tendonitis
• Swimmer's shoulder/shoulder pain
