Radial Shockwave Therapy

The Next Step in Non-Invasive Heel Healing

Non-Invasive Treatment for Chronic Foot and Heel Pain

Treating chronic foot, heel, and ankle conditions is often challenging because scar tissue and adhesions limit the effectiveness of traditional methods. At Missouri Foot & Ankle, we embrace new technology like the Radial Shockwave Therapy using the FDA-approved Zimmer enPuls device. This non-invasive, fast, and safe outpatient therapy delivers high-intensity mechanical energy deep into the affected soft tissue to effectively "press the reset button" on chronic pain.

How It Works and What It Treats

The enPuls device emits ballistic sound waves that penetrate the soft tissue, causing a microtrauma that triggers the body’s natural healing response. This process breaks up scar tissue, increases circulation, and promotes the gradual regeneration of damaged tissue. By taking pressure off the nerves, it accelerates the healing process and makes other therapies more effective.

Radial Shockwave Therapy is highly effective for: Plantar Fasciitis, Achilles Tendonitis, Chronic Heel Pain, Tendonosis of the Foot and Ankle, and Acute and Chronic Muscle Pain.

Procedure and Benefits

Therapy is administered once a week for a series of three to five treatments, with each session lasting around five minutes. While you may feel slight, mild discomfort during the procedure, there is zero downtime, allowing you to resume daily activities immediately. Clinical studies demonstrate a success rate equal to or greater than that of surgery, but without the risk of infection or the need for anesthesia. Many patients report immediate pain reduction, with results gradually improving after each treatment.
