If you are suffering from plantar fasciitis, you know how debilitating the condition can be. The sharp pain in your heel can make it difficult to walk, stand, or even sleep. You may have tried different treatments with little relief. But what about class IV laser therapy?
Class IV laser therapy is a FDA-cleared, non-invasive treatment that uses powerful laser energy to penetrate deep into tissue, reducing inflammation and pain. The thermal effect of the laser also helps to stimulate healing.
One study looked at the use of class IV laser therapy for plantar fasciitis and found it to be effective in reducing pain and improving function. After 12 weeks of treatment, 77% of patients reported a reduction in pain and 60% had improved function.
If you are suffering from plantar fasciitis, class IV laser therapy may be worth considering. The treatment is safe, effective, and has no side effects. Talk to your doctor about whether laser therapy is right for you.
