In 2016 I suffered a sever injury to my lower leg. I was told by two specialists that my injury is permanent and nothing can be done. Five years later my leg is still sore to the touch and my foot movement is limited. I don’t believe in giving up. I went to the clinic to seek treatment. They gave me several options and we chose PRP to start with. The procedure was a little painful, I’m not going to lie, but the next morning I woke up for this first time pain free. I am not completely healed, but I know I am on my way. I’m looking forward to more treatment and gaining the full use of my foot and leg. Give them a call and start your healing now.
Understanding Tarsal Tunnel Syndrome
Tarsal Tunnel Syndrome results from compression or irritation of the tibial nerve as it passes through the narrow tarsal tunnel near the ankle. This can be due to repetitive strain, trauma, inflammation, or systemic conditions such as diabetes–factors frequently encountered in the busy lifestyles of Los Angeles residents.
Common symptoms include:
- Tingling, burning, or shooting pain along the sole and inside of the foot
- Numbness or a “pins and needles” sensation
- Swelling and tenderness near the ankle
- Difficulty walking or prolonged standing without discomfort
Studies estimate that 1-5% of the general population experience nerve compression syndromes like Tarsal Tunnel Syndrome, with many patients seeking specialized care in Los Angeles County to regain mobility and quality of life.


Innovative Regenerative Treatments for Tarsal Tunnel Syndrome
Our Beverly Hills clinic offers minimally invasive treatments designed to relieve nerve compression and inflammation effectively:
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy
PRP utilizes your body’s own growth factors to reduce inflammation and stimulate repair of the tibial nerve and surrounding tissues.
Stem Cell Therapy
Stem cell injections enhance regeneration of damaged nerve and soft tissue, accelerating recovery and functional improvement.
Ultrasound-Guided Precision
All procedures are performed with real-time ultrasound imaging to ensure precise delivery and minimize discomfort.
Clinical Outcomes:
- Over 75% of patients report significant symptom improvement following regenerative treatments for nerve compression disorders
- Noticeable relief typically begins within 4 to 6 weeks with ongoing functional gains
- Early regenerative intervention reduces the risk of surgery and improves long-term outcomes
