What is Shockwave Therapy?
Shockwave therapy is a non-invasive treatment using acoustic waves to stimulate healing in injured tissues. It improves blood flow, reduces pain, and accelerates tissue repair.
Shockwave therapy offers a safe, effective alternative to surgery for chronic pain and injuries.
How does Shockwave Therapy work?
The therapy induces microtrauma in tissues, prompting the body’s natural healing response. This increases blood circulation and growth factor release, aiding in the repair of tendons, muscles, or bones.
What conditions can Shockwave Therapy treat?
- Plantar fasciitis (heel pain)
- Tennis elbow (lateral epicondylitis)
- Achilles tendonitis
- Calcific shoulder tendonitis
- Hip pain
- Shin splints
It is also effective for delayed healing fractures and dissolving calcium deposits in soft tissues.
What should you expect from Shockwave Therapy?
- Procedure: Uses a handheld device to deliver shockwaves; sessions last 15-30 minutes.
- After Treatment: Mild discomfort or soreness is normal, akin to muscle soreness post-exercise.
- Frequency: Typically requires 3-6 sessions, with improvement seen within weeks.
