At Prestige Ankle & Foot Care, we are pleased to offer Class IV laser therapy as an advanced, drug-free solution for treating a wide range of foot and ankle conditions. Class IV laser therapy uses focused light energy to penetrate deep into tissues, stimulating the body’s natural healing processes, reducing inflammation, and alleviating pain.

Conditions Treated with Laser Therapy:

  • Achilles Tendinitis: Reduces inflammation and promotes tissue repair to relieve pain in the Achilles tendon. 
  • Ankle Sprains: Speeds up recovery by enhancing blood flow and decreasing swelling. 
  • Arthritis: Alleviates pain and stiffness in joints, improving mobility and comfort. 
  • Bunions: Minimizes pain and inflammation associated with bunions, supporting improved foot function. 
  • Fungal Toenails: Targets fungal infections safely, helping restore clear, healthy nails. 
  • Gout: Provides relief from intense joint pain and inflammation associated with gout. 
  • Plantar Fasciitis: Addresses heel pain by stimulating the healing of the plantar fascia ligament. 
  • Post Operative Swelling/Discomfort: Promotes faster healing and reduces discomfort after foot and ankle surgery. 
  • Metatarsalgia: Eases pain in the ball of the foot by reducing inflammation and supporting natural healing. 
  • Neuropathy: Improves nerve function and circulation, providing relief from tingling and numbness. 
  • Warts (Verruca): Effectively treats plantar warts without the need for invasive procedures.

 

Pain Management:

Laser therapy is a safe and effective way to reduce pain without the need for medication or surgery. It works by increasing cellular energy production, enhancing circulation, and reducing inflammation—helping you return to your active lifestyle more quickly.

Fungal Toenail Treatment:
 Laser therapy offers a drug-free approach to treating fungal toenails, avoiding the potential liver and skin side effects associated with oral medications. Unlike topical antifungal treatments that rarely eliminate the infection, laser therapy penetrates the nail to target the fungus at its source. Dr. Escalea may recommend combination therapy based on your medical history and exam.

Wart Treatment:
 Class IV laser therapy is also effective for treating warts (verruca), providing an alternative to more invasive treatments and helping to clear persistent skin lesions safely.

Important Note:
 Laser therapy treatments are not covered by insurance; however, we offer financing options to help you invest in your health and comfort.
