$299 for Heel-Pain or Plantar-Fasciitis Treatment Package ($980 Value)

  • Up to three ultrasound treatments
  • One pair of custom-fit orthotics
  • X-rays if applicable
  • Cortizone if agreed upon

In three weekly visits, doctors employ ultrasound treatments to ease pain caused by plantar fasciitis or heel spurs. The treatment pulses high-pressure sound through the skin to help the soft tissue and bone heal more strongly. Each treatment takes roughly five minutes per foot, and optimal results generally occur after 12 treatments.

Howard S. Ortman, DPM at Mt. Tam Foot & Ankle

Dr. Howard S. Ortman's medical career spans more than 30 years, four hospitals, and his own private practice, where he now cares for foot and ankle maladies with both conservative and surgical treatments. He and his staff uphold prompt diagnosis, early intervention, and prevention as essential tenants for maintaining the health of feet. To this end, they use x-rays and diagnostic ultrasounds to uncover pedal woes, perform in-office surgery with safe sedation methods such as local anesthesia, and keep feet aesthetically pleasing with laser treatments for nail fungus, warts, in-grown toenails, and in-grown shoes. In his quest to stay on top of the most advanced techniques, Dr. Ortman regularly attends conferences sponsored by esteemed institutions.

The Groupon Guide to: Summer Bugs

When the weather heats up, Mother Nature's pores open to let out all the insects that have been spent the last 9 months feasting on her insides. If you plan on leaving your house this summer, here are some bugs you'll encounter:

Lightning Bugs: Kids love trapping fireflies in mason jars and then burying the lighted jars so worm mommies and worm daddies have enough light to finally read bedtime stories to their worm babies.
Cicadas: The song of the cicada can be heard for miles away if there is a man standing near a horde of them with some sort of sound-amplification device he spent years building.
Ants: These tiny creatures typically show up at picnics to test all your food for poison before you eat it. Remember: "If they end up dead, don't eat that bread. If they're still breathing, time for your feeding."
Bees: Though many scientists have privately admitted that a bee extinction could end the world, publicly they all just seem to publish articles about how cute bees are if you imagine them with no stinger and a human smile.

Can a lightning bug survive in a jar if there is also some lettuce in it?
