Plantar Fasciitis That Won't Go Away?
You've stretched. You've worn orthotics. You've had cortisone shots — maybe more than one. Maybe you've even tried injections or shockwave. And you're still limping out of bed every morning.
There is one more thing worth trying before surgery: Low-Dose Radiation Therapy.

Why LDRT works when other treatments haven't
Chronic plantar fasciitis is a self-sustaining inflammatory cycle. Repeated load on a chronically inflamed fascia keeps the cells producing pain-generating cytokines. Stretching and orthotics reduce the load. Cortisone temporarily suppresses inflammation chemically. Injection therapy delivers growth factors. None of these target the cellular inflammatory cycle directly.
LDRT modulates inflammatory cells at the source — reducing cytokine production and shifting the local biology away from chronic inflammation. The treatment is delivered externally over 6 to 8 weekday sessions, with no needles into the foot, no anesthesia, and no downtime.
Who this is for
- Heel pain persisting six months or longer
- Failed stretching, orthotics, and supportive shoes
- Cortisone shots that wore off or stopped working
- injections, shockwave, or other injection therapies that did not deliver lasting relief
- Patients who want to avoid plantar fascia release surgery
- Patients with chronic plantar fasciitis in both feet
Working With Your Care Team
Your podiatrist or foot-and-ankle orthopedist knows your history and your options better than anyone, along with the physical therapist or primary-care doctor on your care team. We don't replace them, and we wouldn't want to. We're a resource for them — for patients who have worked through the usual steps and want a non-surgical, drug-free option before considering surgery. You stay in their care: we treat only what's referred, keep your doctors informed, and refer you back to them. We're not here to take anyone's patients.
