Acupuncture & Acupressure Treatment of Heel Pain
Acupressure and acupuncture is designed to apply stimulation to certain specific places on the body in order to manipulate your body’s energy and relieve pain. However, in acupressure treatment finger pressure is used instead of needles. This process can release endorphins that reduce pain in the foot.
Psychotherapy and Hypnotherapy Treatment of Heel Pain
Psychotherapy can change the way your mind influences your body. When you shift your thinking away from the pain and change your focus to more positive aspects of your life, you change the way your body responds to the anticipated pain and stress.
Conventional / Allopathic Treatment of Heel Pain
Allopathic treatment of heel pain includes Aspirin or ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin, others) that can reduce inflammation and pain. In advanced stages, a steroid injection may be required.
Surgical Treatment of Heel Pain
Surgery may be recommended to treat conditions including neuroma, bursitis and heel spurs. The following surgery may be recommended:
- Endoscopic Plantar Fasciotomy – the doctor will make a tiny incision through which the endoscope is inserted into the heel area. The fiber-optic instrument transmits the image to a television monitor mounted in the surgical area. This allows a much better view of the anatomy than the traditional surgical procedure while the plantar fascia is being released.
Dietary & Herbal Treatment of Heel Pain
- Intake of Citrus fruits such as oranges, grapefruit, and tangerines
- Turmeric reduces pain and inflammation
- Add calcium in your diet
Other Treatment of Heel Pain
- Apply an ice pack (in a towel) to the heel for 10 minutes, remove it for 10 minutes. Repeat this process as needed but do not leave the pack on for more than 20 minutes continuously.
