关于About this treatment

What the procedure involves.

Plantar fasciitis treatment in China offers a comprehensive stepwise approach from conservative therapies (shockwave, PRP injections, custom orthotics) to minimally invasive procedures (ultrasound-guided fasciotomy) for chronic cases. Chinese sports medicine centers combine evidence-based Western treatments with TCM approaches including acupuncture and herbal soaks for holistic pain management. Extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT) is widely available and highly effective for chronic heel pain.

流程Procedure steps

Step by step.

  1. 01

    Diagnosis & Biomechanical Assessment

    Ultrasound imaging of the plantar fascia, gait analysis, and foot pressure mapping

    Duration · 30-45 minutes
  2. 02

    Conservative Interventions

    Custom orthotics fitting, stretching program, and shockwave therapy (3-5 sessions)

    Duration · 4-6 weeks

    Injection Therapy

    Ultrasound-guided PRP or corticosteroid injection for persistent cases

    Duration · 30 minutes
  4. 04

    Minimally Invasive Release

    Ultrasound-guided percutaneous fasciotomy if all conservative measures fail

    Duration · 20-30 minutes
Benefits
  • Stepwise approach avoids unnecessary surgery
  • Shockwave therapy is non-invasive with high success rates
  • Integration of TCM for holistic pain management
  • Very affordable compared to Western treatment programs
