Shockwave Therapy
Shockwave Therapy is a non-invasive, highly effective modality signifying a breakthrough in pain management and rehabilitation, providing relief and restoring functionality for a variety of health conditions.
What Is Shockwave Therapy?
Shockwave Therapy, also known as Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy (ESWT), is a cutting-edge treatment technique that uses pressure waves to stimulate the body's natural healing process. It involves the delivery of shockwaves -- intense but short energy waves traveling faster than the speed of sound -- into injured tissues. This process enhances blood circulation and accelerates the body's intrinsic repair mechanisms, facilitating faster recovery and optimal function.
Precision-Guided Treatment
Using advanced imaging technology, our practitioners can target acoustic pressure waves with precision to the exact site of injury. The shockwaves penetrate deep into damaged tissue, stimulating cellular repair and regeneration at the source of your pain.
Benefits of Treatment
Non-Invasive Treatment
Unlike surgery, it eliminates the risks associated with surgical interventions such as infections or complications from anesthesia
No Medication Required
A physical therapy that does not require medication, suitable for patients who may be allergic or resistant to certain drugs
Pain Relief & Mobility
Proven to provide significant pain relief and improve mobility for various conditions, enhancing quality of life
Accelerated Healing
Stimulates the body's natural healing process, leading to faster recovery times compared to traditional methods
Outpatient Procedure
Conducted as an outpatient procedure -- patients return home immediately after treatment, minimizing disruption to daily life
Cost-Effective
Compared to surgical interventions, a more cost-effective treatment option reducing the financial burden on patients
A Wide Range of Applications
Shockwave Therapy has a wide range of applications, offering a compelling solution for chronic tendinopathies including tennis elbow, jumper's knee, shoulder tendinopathy, and Achilles tendinopathy. It stimulates the healing of tendon tissues and reduces inflammation, providing significant pain relief.
It is also highly effective for plantar fasciitis by promoting tissue regeneration, calcific tendinitis by breaking down calcium deposits, and myofascial pain syndrome by targeting and relieving trigger points.
