Stemwave Therapy at Core Chiropractic in Waukee — a proven, non-surgical solution that targets the root cause of your heel pain.
That intense stabbing pain when you first get out of bed or after sitting for a while. It’s the hallmark of plantar fasciitis — and it’s exhausting.
Whether you’re a runner on the Waukee trails, a teacher on your feet all day, or someone who just wants to enjoy walks with family — the pain holds you back.
Many people try rest, stretching, orthotics, or ice with only temporary relief. Without addressing the damaged tissue, the pain keeps returning.
Advanced focused acoustic wave therapy that stimulates your body’s natural healing process — right where it hurts.
The focused waves create micro-trauma that restarts the healing cascade in chronically damaged plantar fascia.
Improved circulation brings nutrients and removes waste — accelerating repair in an area that normally has poor blood supply.
Many patients feel noticeable relief within just a few sessions as inflammation decreases and tissue begins to heal.
Most patients are surprised by how comfortable and quick the treatment is.

Most patients report significant reduction in morning heel pain within the first 2–3 weeks.
No needles, no surgery, no long recovery. Just focused energy waves that kickstart healing.
Unlike orthotics or taping that only manage symptoms, Stemwave helps repair the damaged fascia tissue.
Quick treatments with zero downtime. Get back to work, walking, or running the same day.
Clinical studies show 70–90% improvement in chronic plantar fasciitis cases with focused shockwave therapy.
Because we’re healing the tissue, results tend to last — especially when combined with simple home care.
“I had plantar fasciitis for almost two years. I tried everything — new shoes, night splints, physical therapy. After four Stemwave sessions at Core Chiropractic, the morning pain was gone. I’m now walking 10k steps a day again.”
“As a runner training for my first half marathon, the heel pain was devastating. Dr. Lindstrom got me in quickly. After my third Stemwave treatment I was able to increase mileage again without the stabbing pain. Highly recommend.”
“I stand 10+ hours a day as a nurse. The pain was so bad I was limping by the end of shifts. Stemwave changed everything. I’m now pain-free at work and even started walking after dinner again with my husband.”
