Heel pain — usually a plantar fasciitis at the tendon insertion under the heel — arises predominantly from overuse; the heel spur visible in the X-ray is often a consequence, not a cause.
Typical is the stabbing start-up pain in the morning and after standing or walking for a long time.
From our patient consultations and the medical reports submitted.
Almost always in this order.
Often accompanying: acupuncture.
Insoles and shock wave therapy often take months until an effect occurs, and cortisone injections at the plantar fascia carry a risk of rupture.
At the insertion of the plantar fascia on the heel bone, chronic overuse maintains the disturbed tendon remodelling without healing following — the bony spur itself is usually only an accompanying finding, not the cause of pain. The insertion point lies directly under the sole of the foot skin and is precisely accessible from the outside.
Axomera starts at this fascia insertion: computer-controlled electrical signals in the dimension of cellular electrical fields are placed with millimetre precision at the insertion site. The goal is to shift the disturbed tendon remodelling back in favour of a resilient fascia structure.
How inflammation and pain are connected →We do not treat the finding in the image, but the spot that hurts under the ultrasound probe.
Axomera is an internationally patented bioelectrical procedure.
How Axomera therapy works →Every therapy needs its own examination — for us, this includes the Axomera diagnostics and the Axomera therapy.
Developed from cell physiology, Axomera acts precisely at the tissue of the sole of the foot — one level deeper than insoles, shock wave, and cortisone, at the bioelectric control of tendon remodelling and healing; without cortisone.
For one year, heel pain on the right; as a teacher, standing was hardly possible, recently only with crutches. Insoles, medication, injections, and multiple shock waves had not helped; the MRI showed a bone marrow oedema and signs of inflammation at the plantar fascia. I received six Axomera treatments. After the second treatment, it got better. Now I can walk pain-free again.

Our practice treats exclusively by prior appointment.
The telephone initial assessment is not a treatment and does not replace an examination. Whether Axomera is suitable for you will be decided after a medical examination.
