One of the latest treatment modalities, Topaz treatment, is showing promise in the treatment of plantar fasciitis.

What is good, in my opinion, is that the procedure is practically non-invasive.  It can be done with a tiny stab incision, and patients need not worry about longer healing times.

The principal behind which Topaz treatment works is to increase blood flow to the area, and to break up nocioceptors (a sensory receptor that responds to pain).

One important thing to remember about the treatment is that afterwards, you are NOT to use ice or other anti-inflammatories such as Motrin.  The treatment is attempting to accelerate this response, not slow it down.  It is that process that helps to open up blood flow to the area.
