Shockwave Therapy is a non-invasive, state-of-the-art treatment that utilizes acoustic waves to stimulate healing and promote tissue regeneration. It’s a safe and effective alternative for those seeking relief from musculoskeletal conditions.
How Does it Work?
The therapy works by delivering high-energy acoustic waves to targeted areas, triggering increased blood circulation, cellular repair, and the release of growth factors. This process accelerates the body’s natural healing mechanisms.
Shock Wave Therapy causes these specific responses to the tissue including:
Physical Response – shock waves hit the tissue and generate positive pressure waves Chemical Response – the pressure waves mechanically stimulate biochemical reactions that cause our cells to become activated
Biological Response – the cells receive instructions to stimulate remodeling of blood vessels, reduction of inflammation molecules and the stimulation of new and healthy tissue (muscles, ligaments and tendons)
Recent research has shown Shockwave therapy to stimulate mesenchymal stem cell (MSCs) growth
Benefits of Shockwave Therapy:
Pain Reduction: Experience quick and long-lasting pain relief. Anti-inflammatory action
Improved Function: Enhance mobility and restore function. Accelerated Healing: Stimulate tissue repair and regeneration. Improved blood circulation
Activates stem cells
Non-Invasive: Say goodbye to surgery and long recovery times.
Conditions Treated:
Shockwave Therapy effectively addresses various musculoskeletal conditions, including:
Plantar Fasciitis
Tennis/Golfer’s Elbow
Frozen Shoulder
Achilles Tendinopathy
Gluteal tendinopathies
Calcific Tendonitis (supraspinatus tendon, etc.) Patellar Tendinosis (Jumper’s Knee) Morton’s Neuroma
Chronic Stress/Non-union Fractures
