Radial Shockwave Therapy: A Proven Solution for Heel Pain and Tendon Injuries
Radial Shockwave Therapy (also known as Extracorporeal Pulse Activation Technology or EPAT) is a non-invasive, FDA-approved treatment that has been widely used for conditions like plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendonitis, and other chronic tendon injuries. At Arlington Foot and Ankle, we offer this cutting-edge therapy to help patients reduce pain, accelerate healing, and avoid more invasive procedures.
What is Radial Shockwave Therapy?
Radial shockwaves are acoustic pressure waves that are delivered through the skin to the affected area. These waves stimulate the body’s natural healing processes by increasing blood flow, breaking down scar tissue, and encouraging the regeneration of healthy tissue.
This treatment is particularly effective for larger and more superficial areas, making it a great option for conditions that affect soft tissues near the surface, such as:
-
Plantar Fasciitis
-
Achilles Tendonitis
-
Shin Splints
-
Peroneal Tendonitis
-
Other chronic or acute soft tissue injuries
Why Choose Radial Shockwave?
-
Non-invasive: No surgery or injections required
-
Minimal downtime: Most patients resume normal activities within 24 hours
