Shockwave Therapy is a non-invasive treatment that uses acoustic sound waves to stimulate healing in injured or painful areas of the body. During treatment, a handheld device delivers gentle pulses to the targeted area, helping to increase blood flow and activate the body’s natural repair processes. The treatment is quick, performed in the office, and does not require downtime.
This therapy works by encouraging cellular regeneration and breaking down scar tissue that may be contributing to pain or restricted movement. Many patients find that Shockwave Therapy helps reduce discomfort and improve mobility without the need for medications or invasive procedures.
Shockwave Therapy is often used to treat chronic musculoskeletal conditions such as plantar fasciitis, tendonitis, shoulder pain, and other soft tissue injuries. When tissue becomes damaged or inflamed, healing can sometimes stall. Shockwave Therapy helps “restart” the healing process so the body can repair itself more effectively.
