Can shockwave therapy make plantar fasciitis worse?

I have naturally higher arches than normal and it's lead to inflammation in my legs and feet and plantar fasciitis. I'm really wanting to try non-surgical treatment for the intense heel pain that I have from plantar fasciitis, and I recently heard about acoustic shockwave therapy (EPAT). My pain level ranges from sharp, stabbing pains early in the morning to a general dull ache throughout the day. I'm wary of medications, like anti-inflammatory drugs, but I've also heard some people say that acoustic shockwave therapy can make plantar fasciitis worse. Is this true? Can I use shockwave therapy to help treat my plantar fasciitis?
