Comprehensive Treatment for Heel Pain


Endoscopic Plantar Fasciotomy

For patients with chronic heel pain that has failed to respond to all forms of conservative care, the physicians at First Step Foot Care offer this minimally invasive surgical procedure. Called EPF for short, the procedure uses a small camera to visualize the chronically damaged ligament, which can then be released by introducing a surgical blade through the small portal of entry. The procedure produces consistent positive results with a much quicker recovery time than the traditional "open approach".
