For patients with foot and ankle conditions that need prolonged treatment, laser therapy has several advantages over physical therapy. For patients with foot and ankle conditions that need prolonged treatment, laser therapy has several advantages over physical therapy.
- Firstly, physical therapy treatments cost the patient as much as three times what laser therapy treatments cost. Patients tend to have few out-of-pocket expenses with laser therapy.
- Second, it saves the patient’s time. Typically, physical therapy takes three one-hour sessions over six to eight weeks. Laser therapy only takes a ten-minute session for six to eight weeks.
- Finally, laser therapy has immediate effects. Immediately following physical therapy, patients may experience additional aches and soreness. Almost all patients who undergo laser therapy experience no pain or negative side effects after their first treatment.
Our newest medical device, “The Remy”, is a Class IV, 510K, FDA-cleared laser capable of treating a wide range of conditions. Designed with both innovative and practical features, it is designed to treat conditions ranging from pain/inflammation to onychomycosis… as well as surgical removal of plantar and mosaic warts (without the use of anesthesia). Through the use of interchangeable handpieces that can be easily swapped at the touch of a finger, shifting from therapy to fungal infection, or from fungal infection to surgery, or from surgery back to therapy, is a hassle-free experience.
This device can be used to treat the following foot/ankle conditions in patients:
- Achilles Tendonitis
- Arthritis & Gout
- Bone Spurs
- Bunions

- Plantar Fasciitis
- Post-Surgical Care
