The Most Effective
Plantar Fasciitis Treatment in Davis, CA

Plantar fasciitis is a common cause of heel pain that can make walking, running, and standing uncomfortable—especially when the pain lingers for weeks or months. Shockwave therapy is a non-surgical, drug-free treatment designed to stimulate healing in the damaged plantar fascia by improving blood flow, reducing pain sensitivity, and breaking up chronic, non-healing tissue. It’s an excellent option for people who have tried stretching, rest, orthotics, or physical therapy without lasting relief, and want to avoid injections or surgery. Treatments are quick, require no downtime, and many patients begin to notice meaningful improvement immediately after the first treatment.

Who This Treatment Is For

You may be a good candidate if:

  • Heel pain has lasted longer than 6–8 weeks

  • Symptoms return whenever you increase activity

  • You’ve already tried stretching, rest, or orthotics

  • Pain is limiting exercise, work, or daily movement

  • You want to avoid injections or surgery

This approach is especially helpful for chronic or stubborn cases that haven’t improved with basic care.

What to Expect

Many patients experience:

  • Gradual reduction in morning pain

  • Improved walking tolerance

  • Less soreness after activity

  • Better response to movement and rehab exercises

Most care plans involve a series of short treatments combined with guidance to safely reload the foot.

Why Patients Choose This Approach

Unlike passive treatments, this method is designed to:

  • Address the underlying tissue problem

  • Help restore function instead of masking pain

  • Support long-term improvement, not temporary relief

Our goal is simple:
Help you walk comfortably again — and stay that way.

  • What treatment plan is most appropriate for recovery

👉 Early treatment can prevent this condition from lingering for months or years.

I have never been a chiropractor person, but wow, this was amazing! I could barely function and after two sessions I was completely healed! Magic! Thanks Hunter!

I’m a skeptic by nature when it comes to medical practitioners. It took my wife’s firm insistence to get me into the office after I threw my back out lifting two heavy suitcases in poor form. The pain was excruciating and unlike anything I’d dealt with before. Hunter Scriven is exceptionally capable. He operates with high precision and genuine concern for the outcome. The results were immediate: my pain subsided rapidly, and the improvement was drastic. I’m currently at 90%, and while there's still some sensitivity, the trajectory is impressive. Scriven’s strength is his adaptability. He adjusts the treatment in real-time based on my feedback, ensuring every move is effective. The bottom line: he took me from being crippled by pain to back on my feet. It works…shockingly well.

My step-father recommended Dr. Scriven to me after being treated successfully for back pain and a torn hamstring. Dr. Scriven is very professional and personable. He treated me for De Quervains tendonitis which was extremely painful and limiting my usage of my right wrist and thumb. Through regular treatment with shockwave therapy (High-energy acoustic waves), the pain is almost completely gone and I am able to use my right hand again. Dr. Scriven has also given me physical therapy exercises to help now that my thumb and wrist are much better. I had tried numerous home treatment and steroid shots before coming to Dr. Scriven, and the shock wave therapy is the first thing that has helped my condition to improve. Thank you, Dr. Scriven!

I was extremely impressed with the whole experience – Dr Scriven made me feel at ease from the moment I walked into the consulting room. I am now on a journey to improving my alignment and have high hopes that in a few weeks I will definitely see a huge improvement to the pain I am in at the moment. I highly recommend him.

I started seeing Dr. Scriven for chronic neck pain and finally felt heard. He took the time to understand my symptoms and explain how treatment could help. After just a few visits, my neck pain—and even my headaches—had significantly improved. The improvement has been life-changing, and I’m so grateful for the compassion and relief I’ve found at Scriven Chiropractic. Highly recommend!!
