If you or a family member suffers from heel pain or joint pain from damaged or inflamed tendons, you know frustrating it is to achieve relief. You may have tried one treatment after another with no real healing.

Your Next Step now offers Tenex Health TX™ technology, a minimally-invasive procedure that removes damaged tissue and promotes healing using ultrasonic energy.

Comparing Tenex Health TX™ to other Traditional Treatments

We have found that Tenex Health TX™ works to relieve the pain and advance healing of plantar fasciitis – inflammation of the plantar fascia – as well as Achilles tendonosis or degeneration of the tendon.

Many traditional treatments are designed to mask your pain or generate healing in the tendon without concentrating on the source of the pain. Have you already tried one or more of these treatments to relieve your discomfort?

• Resting, icing the area and avoiding activities that cause pain. This approach may have to be repeated several times and can take up to a year to be effective.

• Anti-inflammatory medications and cortisone injections. These must be applied several times and are mainly intended as pain relievers, not to address its cause.

• Surgery to remove damaged tendon. Any surgery carries risk with general anesthesia and potential damage to healthy tissue. The recovery period can be as long as 6 months with restricted activities.

• Physical therapy. Used along with resting, medications and surgery, rehabilitation of the damaged tendon takes time over many visits.

The Tenex Health TX™ difference is that it actually removes damaged tissue, which is the primary cause of your pain. This triggers a healing response with the body.

This treatment can succeed where other traditional methods have failed. The Tenex Health TX™ solution can provide quick pain relief, avoids surgery and gets many patients back to normal activities in about 6 weeks. We’ll use local anesthesia instead of general anesthesia during the 20-minute procedure and you’ll walk out of our office with only a small adhesive bandage!
