Recent advancements in medical technology have led to the development of several innovative, non-surgical solutions for heel pain due to plantar fasciitis. These include physical therapy exercises designed to stretch the plantar fascia and Achilles tendon and strengthen lower leg muscles, which stabilize your ankle and heel.
Custom orthotics or arch supports can also be used to distribute pressure more evenly across your feet. Night splints are another option, keeping the plantar fascia and Achilles tendon in a lengthened position overnight to promote stretching.
In recent years, class IV laser therapy has emerged as an effective treatment, using focused laser energy to reduce inflammation and pain, stimulate blood flow, and accelerate tissue repair. These non-surgical solutions offer promising alternatives for those seeking relief from persistent heel pain without undergoing invasive procedures.
