Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (ESWT)
Shockwave therapy is a non-invasive treatment that uses high-intensity acoustic shock waves. The handheld probe is placed against the skin to deliver pulses of sound waves to the injured tissue. These sounds waves stimulate blood flow, break up scar tissue, and promote healing. The controlled micro-trauma created by the shockwaves encourages tissue regeneration.
Prolotherapy
Foot and toe pain can range from slightly annoying to completely disabling. Whether the pain is aggravated by sports, working on your feet, or just standing while you cook dinner, Prolotherapy is an excellent non-surgical option for progressive and chronic foot and toe pain. Dr. Rohacz has treated most patient success cases using Prolotherapy for a variety of foot pain including bunions, Morton’s neuroma, plantar fasciitis, osteoarthritis, turf toe, and more. What these conditions all have in common is that they are most often the result of ligament laxity and joint instability. Prolotherapy is the regenerative injection treatment that specifically targets weakened ligaments in the foot. When the ligaments are strengthened, the joints become stabilized, and the symptoms are alleviated.
Vitamin B-12 Injections
Vitamin B deficiency is observed in peripheral neuropathy. Vitamin B complex help in neuropathy by reducing pain and supporting nerve repair.
Traumeel Injection Therapy
Homeopathic traumeel injectables are a terrific way to address orthopedic conditions that are associated with excessive or chronic inflammation.
Traumeel Injections are highly sought after natural, homeopathic treatments for conditions that cause painful inflammation. Traumeel is a botanical extract that was largely unrecognized as an injection type of remedy in the United States for over 80 years; athletes would often travel to Europe to receive such care for sports injuries. Traumeel is primarily composed of arnica montana root, a plant extract that is commonly found in tablets and creams to relieve pain and inflammation.
Injection Solution Ingredient Information: Each 2.2ml ampule contains: Arnica montana, radix 2X, Belladonna 2X, Calendula officinalis 2X, Chamomilla 3X, Millefolium 3X, Hepar sulphuris calcareum 6X, Symphytum officinale 6X 2.2 mcl each; Aconitum napellus 2X 1.32 mcl; Bellis perennis 2X, Mercurius solubilis 6X, 1.1 mcl each; Hypericum perforatum 2X, 0.66 mcl each; Echinacea 2X, Echinacea purpurea 2X 0.55 mcl each; Hamamelis virginiana 1X 0.22 mcl. Inactive ingredient: sterile isotonic sodium chloride solution.
Electric Simulation Therapy (EST)
Electronic Signal Therapy (EST). This treatment involves the use of a very sophisticated medical device that is similar to and uses the principles of physics that are used in a TENS unit that delivers an electronic, biological waveform/frequency that is used to heal the nerves that carry the pain signals, the muscles and other soft tissues which are the source of the pain frequently associated with peripheral neuropathy. EST can bring about a potent analgesic pain-relieving effect by calming down nerve pain (neuropathy/neuralgia) directly. This is accomplished by selectively placing surface electrodes on the skin and introducing a very specific electronic impulse to cause interruption in the abnormal nerve signal that causes the neuropathic pain. Long-term relief is also accomplished by stimulating the body's own chemical messages within the cells to correct or normalize nerve and other soft tissue cell function. EST also stimulates the immune system, in contrast to steroid medications which suppress the immune system.

In Office X-rays
Dr. Rohacz can perform and interept radiographs of the foot and ankle.
Vascular Testing
A non-invasive test that uses inflatable cuffs to gauge circulation (blood flow) and measure blood pressure in the arteries at various locations on the thigh, calf, foot and toes. Done in an outpatient clinic or vascular laboratory. Minimal, brief discomfort, similar to what you feel while having a routine blood pressure test with an inflatable arm cuff.
Podiatry Products
Foot care products are essential for preventing and maintaining proper foot health.
Diabetic Shoes
The Diabetic Shoes and insoles are designed to prevent foot ulcerations and amputations. Dr. Rohacz was the first to bring Diabetic Shoe dispensing to Hillsdale County. These shoe inserts are light weight, resilient and provide unmated cushioning and support. They are used to cushion the foot, absorb shock and fit comfortably regardless of the user's footwear style.
