How we helped Mrs Bishop from Newmarket
This 55 year old lady presented with a 2 year history of left Plantar Fasciitis and Achilles Tendonitis following a long weekend walking around Oxford in flat shoes. She had tried and exhausted all NHS options such as pain killers, anti-inflammatories and steroid injections by a Rheumatologist. She had also tried physiotherapy, acupuncture, expensive shoes and a magnetic bracelet without any improvement. Her heel pain in the mornings was agony and her ability to perform simple tasks such as walking to the shops and doing the housework was severely limited.
On her last visit to the Rheumatologist he suggested that the only treatment that may work is Shockwave Therapy but that the NHS in this area didn’t provide it.
After 4 short treatments over a 3 week period Mrs Bishop had improved by 70% and could achieve most things without much pain. Her heel pain in the morning was markedly improved.
She has now been given advice on gradually increasing her walking distance over the next 2-3 months with one simple stretch to perform daily. She isn’t having to take any more medication.
“I’ve suffered with Plantar fasciitis & Achilles Tendonitis for the past two years.
If you have it, you will know its a crippling foot condition.
If like me you think you have tried & exhausted everything and lost hope, think again.
Contact The Abbeyfields Clinic and have Shockwave Therapy.
I have recently had 4 sessions, I am well on the way to beating this and if I continue to follow James’s aftercare advice, I will get there.
Just don’t suffer as long as I did, help is out there you just have to know were to look.”
