Utilizing bursts of highly pressured acoustic waves, Shockwave Therapy delivers targeted force to alleviate pain and promote healing in injured tendons, ligaments, and soft tissues.

Conditions It Can Address

If you have any of the following you may benefit from this therapy:

  • Achilles tendonitis
  • Bursitis
  • Fibromyalgia
  • Knee pain
  • Leg pain
  • Osteoarthritis
  • Plantar fasciitis
  • Shoulder pain
  • Tennis elbow

What to Expect

Using an applicator head attached to a handpiece, shockwaves are focused on the injured area, penetrating deep into the tissue. The force generated by the shockwaves promotes quick healing. Each session typically lasts 10-20 minutes per painful or injured area.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does it hurt?

While the name of the therapy may make it seem scary, it’s not. You may experience some discomfort but it shouldn’t be considered a painful treatment. Perhaps best of all, no surgery, needles or medication are used.

How many visits will I need?

Typically, patients require 6-8 treatments for long-term results, but immediate pain relief can be experienced after just one session. We can clear plantar fasciitis up in just 6-10 visits.

Can it be used with other therapies?

Yes, Shockwave Therapy can be a beneficial addition to Prolozone, a form of regenerative medicine, or platelet-rich plasma (PRP) treatments.

Will it work for me?

Every patient responds differently to treatment, so there is no guarantee of results. However, the success rates of Shockwave Therapy at various clinics are impressive, with up to 90% of patients experiencing long-lasting pain relief. Our personalized treatment plans and thorough evaluations ensure we strive for the best possible outcome for each patient..
