Shockwave therapy is a cutting edge, non surgical, non drug device. Shockwave therapy uses sound waves to jumpstart your bodies healing-repairing tissue and easing pain without surgery. It is used by Orthopedic Surgeons, Pain Management, Chiropractors and Physical Therapists.
Shockwave has been shown to help alleviate and heal damaged tissue as a result of
Plantar Fasciitis
Runners Knee
Hip Bursitis
Shoulder pain,
Tennis Elbow
Carpal Tunnel
Back Pain
Trigger Points
How does it work:
The device produces acoustic sound waves which penetrate the body. These waves create mechanical stress that cells convert into biochemical signals. (mechanotransduction). This promotes new blood vessel growth, collagen production, and tissue regeneration.
It temporarily overwhelms nerve pain fibers and depletes pain inducing chemicals.
It encourages tendon cell proliferation and bone regeneration, aiding in tendon and bone repair.
Pain fibers are reset giving short term comfort after treatment. Over weeks tissue remodeling reduces chronic pain and restores function. It also provides a safe alternative to injections and surgery.
Research suggests that 80% of people are 80% better after 3-6 treatments.
