Dr. Geoghan established The Heel Pain Relief Center in her Lutherville practice to help patients suffering needlessly from this common condition. Heel pain is a particularly punishing problem because it can prevent normal daily activities and, if left untreated, can become debilitating. Therefore, it is critical to seek treatment early from a qualified, experienced podiatrist.
Heel pain can be caused by a variety of conditions, like plantar fasciitis, tendonitis, fractures, nerve damage, and others often created by repetitive strain, improper footwear, and excessive weight. Minor cases typically only need mild treatments such as lifestyle changes, stretching, icing, and/or custom orthotics. Severe cases require more involved treatment, like injections, lasers, shockwave therapy, or surgery.
Shockwave therapy is a cutting-edge treatment that eliminates chronic heel pain in just one treatment.
Shockwave therapy works by delivering pulses of energy waves that stimulate the body’s natural healing process, prompting faster healing and lasting pain relief. This surprisingly pain-free, quick treatment involves no medications or surgery and provides dramatic results. Most patients feel pain relief in just one day and after three months, they are 90-100 percent healed and pain free.
