Chronic Foot Pain That Won’t Go Away?
When rest, cortisone shots, and physical therapy haven't solved it — there's a reason. Most treatments suppress symptoms without addressing the underlying tissue damage. We fix that.
Advanced nonsurgical care for patients who are ready for lasting results — not temporary relief.

Take the First Step — See If You Qualify for Our Functional Recovery Evaluation
Most Treatments Only Mask the Pain—Not Fix the Root Cause
Rest, stretches, orthotics gave temporary relief?
Cortisone injections or pain meds only mask symptoms?
Physical therapy helped a little but pain keeps returning?
…and you’re still hurting.
That’s because most treatments only suppress symptoms and don’t correct the underlying tissue damage and inflammation.

At Pacific Point Podiatry, we go beyond temporary fixes. Our advanced non-surgical care focuses on:
Stimulating natural healing and tissue regeneration
Reducing long-term pain without surgery
Restoring movement, strength, and daily function

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you take insurance?
No — we are a cash-based, self-pay Direct Care practice. This allows you to get nonsurgical care personalized just for you without insurance delays.
What is my investment?
We understand the importance of transparent pricing so we’ve made this simple.
● Your first visit includes a comprehensive evaluation, imaging, and personalized plan for just $500.
● Together, we will discuss your goals and options. If you are a candidate and choose to move forward with our advanced therapies, this evaluation is applied toward your structured healing program.
Because this is a comprehensive, structured regenerative approach — not a single treatment — care plans are individualized and typically begin around $2,000.
We will review all findings and options transparently before you make any decisions.
When will I start to feel better?
Every case is different, but most patients begin noticing improvement within a few weeks as inflammation decreases and tissue recovery begins.
It’s important to understand that long-term healing is different from short-term pain relief. Treatments like steroid injections can reduce pain quickly, but their effects are often temporary because they do not address the underlying tissue quality or mechanical stress contributing to the problem.
Our goal is to support gradual, sustainable improvement—restoring function and reducing pain over time rather than providing a brief window of relief.
Is this right for me?
If you’ve had pain for months or years and are ready to heal rather than just manage symptoms — yes. This is the next best option to help you avoid unnecessary surgery and stay active on your feet.
Will it hurt?
Most regenerative treatments are well-tolerated; we’ll walk you through expectations.
