BioDRestore is a new approach to treat chronic heel pain. This treatment involves the use of placental tissue allograft. Placental tissues have been show clinically and scientifically to reduce inflammation, support soft tissue repair, and minimize scar tissue formation. Placental tissues are an abundant source of collagen, as well as growth factors, and cells that are essential to support the body's natural regenerative healing process.
Common injuries treated with placental tissues are tendinitis, plantar fasciitis, achilles tendonitis, and soft tissue injuries.
Our practice is looking at utilizing this technology as an injection under ultrasound guidance for plantar fasciitis/plantar fasciosis. This injection can be performed in the office setting or in a outpatient surgery center.
Over the next few weeks and months we will have more information on this new technology on our website as well as office brochures.
This is a pretty cool way to treat chronic heel pain. I wonder how well this is going to work out and how many people it is going to help out too. Hopefully it will work out well and is something that all podiatrists will know how to do to help people out. Because that right there sounds pretty good to me.
