“Small holes replace an
incision so the healing time
is just a few days!”
If there is one reoccurring theme
in the treatment of plantar fasciitis
and Achilles tendonitis over the past
decade, it is that treatment is getting
better each year. This is, of course,
due to a growing need for faster and
safer treatment methods. Not to
mention, an ever-increasing number
of runners and weekend athletes that
are pushing themselves harder than
ever.
In the past few years a
new procedure is presented and
shows promise. This procedure is
called Topaz.
I believe that the Topaz procedure holds promise
for the chronic plantar fasciits and
Achilles tendonitis patient. It is
considered a minimally-invasive
procedure because, even though
incisions are made, no incision is long
enough to require even a single
suture for closure.
