How To Cure Severe Heel Pain Without Surgery or Pills
If you are struggling to take your first steps out of bed in the morning, do not simply accept the pain. Lionel Hausman, DPM, often treats patients who are desperate for Heel Pain relief but are absolutely terrified of the downtime associated with traditional foot surgery.
If you have been delaying a visit because you want to avoid a bulky walking boot or painful cortisone injections, we have excellent news. Our clinic offers an advanced, completely non-invasive solution designed to heal your tissue from the inside out: The Remy Class IV Laser. Keep reading to learn how it gets the job done (and why it might be right for you).
How The Remy Class Four Laser Works
For patients searching for a highly effective, modern approach to pain management, we proudly offer Remy Laser Therapy.
This cutting-edge solution does not just temporarily mask your symptoms with medication; it targets your pain directly at the biological source.
The Remy is a Class IV therapeutic laser. It uses specific, focused wavelengths of light energy to safely penetrate deep past your skin and directly into your damaged tissue, ligaments, and tendons.
- Once this light energy reaches the cellular level, it triggers a powerful biological response called photobiomodulation.
- This process increases production of ATP, the primary energy source for your cells.
- It essentially refuels your cells, shifting them out of a stalled state and rapidly accelerating your body’s natural tissue repair process.
At the same time, the laser reduces localized inflammation and blocks pain signals from reaching your brain.
A Gentle, Warm Relief with Zero Downtime
If you are imagining a hot, surgical laser, James Bond Style, you can relax.
The therapeutic Remy Laser is entirely painless. In fact, most of our patients describe the short treatment sessions as incredibly easy, feeling nothing more than a gentle, soothing warmth spreading through their foot.
And the best part? There is zero downtime.
- During your brief outpatient appointment, a handheld device delivers controlled light energy for just five to fifteen minutes.
- You can walk right out of our office and resume your normal daily activities!
What Conditions Does It Treat?
Because the Remy Laser operates at the cellular level to promote actual healing, it is highly versatile and effective across a broad range of podiatric conditions. We frequently utilize this regenerative technology to treat:
- Severe heel pain and arch strain.
- Ankle sprains and soft-tissue sports injuries.
- Arthritis-related joint stiffness.
- Neuromas and neuropathy symptoms.
- Stubborn Fungal Toenails and plantar warts.
- Post-surgical healing and slow-healing wounds.
Fast Protocols for Faster Relief
Every patient responds differently based on the severity and duration of their condition. While chronic, long-standing issues may require a longer treatment plan, a standard protocol typically involves just three to five sessions (spaced about once a week).
Because the laser works to reduce inflammation immediately, most patients report a significant reduction in pain after their very first treatment, with the most prominent, lasting effects experienced after the second or third visit.
