Bunion Treatment
Our practice specializes in comprehensive bunion treatment ranging from conservative management to advanced surgical correction. We offer Lapiplasty 3D Bunion Correction, a patented procedure that realigns the entire foot structure for lasting relief. This innovative approach allows early weight-bearing and faster recovery compared to traditional methods, with most patients walking within days of surgery.
Heel Pain Relief
We diagnose and treat heel pain caused by plantar fasciitis, stress fractures, and other conditions using both conservative and advanced therapies. Our treatment options include custom orthotics, physical therapy, and Class IV laser therapy that accelerates cellular healing while reducing inflammation and pain in the heel and surrounding tissues.
Custom Orthotics
Our practice provides both prefabricated and custom-molded orthotics designed to correct biomechanical foot issues and provide targeted support. These personalized shoe inserts help alleviate pain from flat feet, high arches, and other structural abnormalities while improving overall foot function and comfort during daily activities.
Sports Injury Care
We specialize in treating athletic foot and ankle injuries including sprains, stress fractures, and tendonitis. Our approach combines advanced diagnostics with tailored rehabilitation plans to help athletes recover quickly while preventing future injuries. We work with patients to develop proper warm-up routines and footwear recommendations specific to their sport.
Laser Therapy
Our Class IV laser therapy offers non-invasive pain relief for various foot conditions by stimulating cellular repair and reducing inflammation. This treatment effectively addresses chronic pain from plantar fasciitis, tendonitis, and neuromas by enhancing blood circulation and accelerating tissue healing without requiring surgical intervention.
