The overall well-being and stability of our body is greatly influenced by factors such as injuries, physical activities, and age. This is especially evident in the foot and ankle area, which play a crucial role in supporting our posture. Nonetheless, at our practice, we firmly believe that patients can effectively preserve the health and functionality of their feet and ankles, even when facing the challenges of aging or injury. Through our specialized regenerative foot and ankle care program at Revive, we aim to empower individuals to maintain optimal foot and ankle health.
Regenerative foot and ankle care is a medical treatment intended to alleviate the discomfort, limitation of movement, and inflammation related to foot or ankle injury or degeneration. This approach aims to enhance mobility and strength in the affected area by stimulating the body's natural healing processes or by specifically addressing and strengthening crucial structures for
improved mobility and comfort. At Revive, we offer a range of treatment options, from non-invasive techniques to comprehensive surgical procedures, tailored to each patient's specific needs and preferences.
Some of our key options include:
Revive specializes in the surgical treatment of tendon ruptures, specifically the rupture of the
Achilles tendon, referred to as tendon repair. Extensive research has been conducted in the
surgical approaches for this condition, indicating that surgical management may decrease the rate of re-rupture. At Revive, we utilize a procedure called Minimally Invasive Tendon Repair, which involves the use of a small camera to precisely identify the affected tissue, resulting in enhanced accuracy. A small incision is made to access the area and perform reconstruction or substitution of the affected tendon(s). This minimally invasive approach offers a safe, effective, and often expedited recovery.
Ankle surgery may be a suitable option for patients who have ankle injuries, which are frequently encountered, particularly by individuals with active lifestyles. This surgical treatment can effectively repair torn or damaged ligaments and tendons, enabling patients to regain mobility and resume their beloved activities. At Revive, our ankle surgeons have access to state-of-the-art techniques and technology that allow patients to restore full range of motion in their ankles through minimally invasive procedures. Advanced procedures such as arthroscopy and open reconstruction are utilized to restore functionality, reduce pain and swelling, and enhance the overall health and stability of the ankle.
Ankle tendon repair is a significant component of regenerative foot and ankle care options. This
procedure entails suturing torn or damaged tendons together to restore mobility, strength, and
functionality to the ankle joint. Moreover, it can assist in alleviating pain and swelling related to
injuries or age-related alterations. Depending on the extent of the damage, your physician may
suggest simultaneous repair of multiple tendons to attain optimal outcomes.
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy is a non-surgical treatment option that can be utilized for foot and ankle regeneration. Platelets, a specific type of blood cell, possess growth factors that aid in injury healing. The fundamental idea behind PRP injections is to leverage these growth factors to encourage tissue repair, diminish inflammation, and enhance overall functionality in the treated area. This treatment method is gaining popularity as a form of regenerative care employed by numerous healthcare practices to address patients' diverse concerns.
Stem cell therapy is an innovative technique across various medical fields for regenerative foot and ankle care that is gaining popularity. It involves using the body's own cells to encourage healing by differentiating into specialized cells. By harnessing the potential of stem cells, this therapy can effectively reduce pain, enhance mobility, and facilitate the growth of healthy tissues in the affected area.
Arthroscopy is a procedure that involves minimal invasiveness and aims to diagnose and treat joint problems, specifically those of the foot and ankle. The technique entails the insertion of a camera into the impacted region through small incisions, thereby minimizing scarring. Through precise visualization, the physician can identify the source of pain or discomfort. They then employ arthroscopic instruments to restore the health and stability of the tissues affected.
