How Our Diabetic Foot Care Program Works

What is plantar pressure mapping? Plantar pressure mapping identifies high-pressure areas on your feet that increase ulcer risk. During walking, we measure exactly where your feet experience the most stress. This data guides custom insole and footwear design to redistribute pressure away from vulnerable areas. What is offloading footwear? Custom offloading footwear is specially designed shoes and insoles that reduce pressure on high-risk zones. We use total-contact insoles that evenly distribute weight across your entire foot, preventing hotspots that can lead to ulcers. How does RPMS therapy help? Salus Talent Pro 3 Tesla RPMS (Repetitive Pulsed Magnetic Stimulation) therapy improves circulation and reduces neuropathy pain. Better blood flow means faster healing and reduced infection risk. For comprehensive diabetic foot management, our prosthetics and orthotics services include advanced offloading solutions including CROW walkers for Charcot foot management.

  • Plantar pressure mapping to identify ulcer risk zones
  • Custom total-contact insoles and diabetic footwear
  • Preventive screening and regular foot assessments
  • RPMS therapy for neuropathy pain and circulation
  • 3D gait analysis to correct walking patterns
  • Education on daily foot care and self-monitoring
  • Wound care protocols for existing ulcers
  • Offloading strategies for ulcer healing
  • CROW walker management for Charcot foot
  • Custom footwear modifications and repairs
  • Coordination with podiatrists and vascular specialists
  • Long-term prevention and maintenance programs

Prevention is always better than treatment. Regular pressure mapping assessments and custom offloading footwear can prevent 70-80% of diabetic foot ulcers when implemented early.

Comprehensive Risk Assessment

We conduct thorough neuropathy screening, vascular assessment, foot deformity evaluation, and pressure mapping to identify your individual risk factors. A detailed medical history helps us understand your diabetes management and previous foot complications.

2

Pressure Mapping & Gait Analysis

Using advanced GaitScan pressure mapping and 3D gait analysis, we visualize exactly where your feet experience excessive pressure during walking. This data identifies high-risk zones that need offloading before ulcers develop.

3

Custom Offloading Solutions

Based on pressure mapping results, we prescribe and fabricate custom total-contact insoles, diabetic footwear, or CROW walkers (for Charcot foot). We verify pressure reduction with follow-up mapping and adjust until risk zones are adequately offloaded.

4

Ongoing Monitoring & Education

Regular follow-up assessments every 3-6 months verify offloading effectiveness and catch problems early. We provide comprehensive education on daily foot care, skin inspection, footwear selection, and recognizing warning signs that require immediate medical attention.

01

Phase 1: Risk Assessment & Screening

Comprehensive neuropathy testing (monofilament, vibration sense), vascular assessment (pulses, skin temperature), foot deformity evaluation, and medical history review. We classify your risk level (low, moderate, high) and create a personalized prevention plan.

02

Phase 2: Pressure Mapping & Custom Solutions

GaitScan pressure mapping identifies high-pressure zones during walking. We design custom total-contact insoles and diabetic footwear to redistribute pressure away from vulnerable areas. Follow-up mapping verifies >30% pressure reduction in risk zones.

03

Phase 3: Ulcer Management (if present)

For existing ulcers, we provide offloading using total-contact casts, CROW walkers, or custom footwear modifications. We coordinate with podiatrists and vascular specialists for wound care, debridement, and infection management. RPMS therapy improves circulation to accelerate healing.

04

Phase 4: Long-term Prevention & Maintenance

Regular reassessments every 3-6 months monitor changes in pressure patterns, footwear wear, and new risk factors. We adjust insoles and footwear as needed, provide ongoing education, and coordinate with your diabetes care team for comprehensive management.

Diabetic Foot Care Treatment Phases

Why Diabetic Foot Care is Critical

Diabetes damages peripheral nerves (neuropathy) and blood vessels (vascular disease) in your feet. Neuropathy means you might not feel injuries—a small cut, blister, or pressure point can become a serious wound without warning. Poor circulation slows healing and increases infection risk. Plantar pressure mapping reveals that diabetics often have 2-3 times higher pressure in certain foot areas compared to healthy individuals. This excessive pressure, combined with neuropathy and poor circulation, creates the perfect storm for ulcers. However, research shows that preventive offloading reduces ulcer risk by 70-80%. Our comprehensive program combines pressure mapping, custom footwear, RPMS therapy for circulation, and patient education to prevent complications before they start.

Example:
Clinical evidence: Patients with diabetic neuropathy who received custom offloading footwear based on pressure mapping showed 75% reduction in ulcer recurrence over 12 months compared to standard diabetic footwear. Pressure mapping identified risk zones that standard assessments missed.

Diabetic foot care is specialized prevention and treatment to protect feet from ulcers, infections, and amputation in people with diabetes. Diabetes damages nerves and blood vessels, making feet vulnerable to injuries that don't heal properly. Preventive care reduces ulcer risk by 70-80% and preserves mobility.
Plantar pressure mapping visualizes exactly where your feet experience excessive pressure during walking. High-pressure zones are at risk for ulcers. Custom insoles and footwear redistribute pressure away from these vulnerable areas, reducing ulcer risk by preventing tissue damage before it starts.
Custom offloading footwear includes total-contact insoles and specially designed diabetic shoes that reduce pressure on high-risk foot zones. Unlike standard shoes, custom footwear is prescribed based on your individual pressure mapping results to protect your specific vulnerable areas.
High-risk patients should have pressure mapping and foot assessments every 3-6 months. We also recommend daily self-inspection of your feet and immediate attention to any cuts, blisters, or changes in skin color or temperature. Early detection prevents serious complications.
Yes. Salus Talent Pro 3 Tesla RPMS therapy improves circulation and reduces neuropathy pain. Better blood flow means faster healing of minor injuries and reduced infection risk. RPMS is a non-invasive, pain-free treatment that complements our comprehensive diabetic foot care program.
We provide immediate offloading using total-contact casts, CROW walkers, or custom footwear modifications to take pressure off the ulcer. We coordinate with podiatrists and vascular specialists for wound care and infection management. Early, proper offloading accelerates healing and prevents complications.
Costs vary based on your needs—pressure mapping assessment, custom insoles, diabetic footwear, and follow-up visits. We provide detailed cost estimates after your initial assessment. Many insurance plans cover diabetic foot care when medically necessary. Contact us for specific pricing.
Yes. We work closely with endocrinologists, podiatrists, and vascular specialists to ensure comprehensive diabetic care. We provide detailed reports on our assessments and treatment recommendations, and coordinate follow-up care to ensure continuity across your healthcare team.
