Benefits of ShockWave Therapy
Effective Pain Relief: Shockwave Therapy targets area of pain, providing lasting relief for conditions like plantar fasciitis, tennis elbow, shoulder tendinopathy, tennis elbow, golfer's elbow, carpal tunnel syndrome, muscular strains, joint sprains and more.
Non-Invasive: Delay the risks and recovery time associated with surgery. Shockwave Therapy is a safe, non-invasive conservative modality that should be explored before committing to surgical intervention.
Quick Sessions: Each session lasts less than 15 minutes, making it a convenient option for a busy lifestyle.
Fast Results: Many patients experience a reduction in symptoms after just a few treatments. In most cases, expect to commit to 4-8 treatment sessions to completely eliminate a condition. We spread these treatments out over the course of just 2-4 weeks!

WHAT IS SHOCKWAVE THERAPY?
Shockwave Therapy is a non-invasive treatment that uses acoustic waves to stimulate musculoskeletal healing and reduce pain. It is highly effective for treating chronic pain and promoting tissue regeneration, offering a cutting-edge solution for patients who have not found relief through traditional methods. Shockwave therapy works by stimulating cellular responses by converting mechanical energy into biochemical signals (a process called mechanotransduction).
