Shockwave Therapy

Shockwave Therapy

We are proud to present a relatively new form of treatment in the field of orthopedic and rehabilitative medicine called Shockwave Therapy. The primary effect of a shockwave is a direct mechanical force as the wave’s energy passes through the tissue being treated. This results in a biological reaction within the cells of that tissue (inflammation) which triggers the body to accelerate its natural healing response and increase blood flow to the injured site. Evidence supports shockwave therapy as a breakthrough technology that is often the best choice for conditions that do not respond to other forms of treatment. There is an immediate reduction of pain and improved ease of movement. Shockwave may even eliminate the need for surgery. Treatments take as little as 5 minutes with immediate results. Radial Shockwave therapy can help treat:

Plantar Fasciitis, heel spurs

Patellar tendinitis (jumper’s knee)

Lateral epicondylitis (tennis elbow)

Medial epicondylitis (Golder’s Elbow)

Osteoarthritis

Shoulder tendinitis

Trigger points and muscle knots
