Minimally Invasive Thermal Energy Therapy for Recalcitrant Heel Pain & Neuromas in NYC
Radiofrequency (RF) microtenotomy uses high-frequency thermal energy delivered through a tiny needle probe to deconstruct painful scar tissue and stimulate new blood vessel formation without open incisions.
For patients suffering from chronic plantar fasciosis, Achilles tendinosis, or Morton's neuroma who have not found relief with orthotics or physical therapy, RF microtenotomy provides targeted cellular reset. At Manhattan Podiatry Group, Dr. Mark Sharobeem, DPM, performs this office-based procedure under local anesthesia.
The treatment is done through a small probe rather than an open incision, so stitches are usually not needed.

Severe plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendinopathy, Morton's neuroma.
Percutaneous micro-probe thermal energy application under local block.
In-office procedure requiring approximately 20 to 30 minutes.
7 to 10 days in a protective boot before returning to normal sneakers.
In-office ultrasound pinpoints exact areas of fibrous tendon degeneration or inflamed nerve tissue requiring treatment.
A micro-probe delivers controlled bipolar radiofrequency energy, deactivating pain fibers and breaking down thickened scar tissue.
Thermal stimulation triggers an influx of fresh blood flow (angiogenesis), enabling healthy collagen tissue remodeling.
No. The procedure is performed under local nerve block anesthesia, ensuring you remain completely comfortable throughout the session.
Most desk-bound professional workers return to work within 2 to 3 days wearing a protective walking boot.
No stitches are required because the micro-probe entry point is smaller than a standard IV needle prick and heals naturally with a tiny bandage.
