Shockwave Therapy

 

What is Shockwave Therapy?

Shockwave therapy, technically known as extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT), is a non-invasive medical treatment that delivers high-energy acoustic sound waves through the skin to injured, scarred, or inflamed tissues.

The procedure mechanically triggers the body's natural regenerative processes to accelerate healing and alleviate chronic pain without surgical intervention.

 

Not all Shockwave is Created Equal

Radial Vs Focused

Radial - Uniquely suited for superficial musculoskeletal conditions and broad muscle groups. Since it affects tissue on the surface, the conditions it treats are as more superficial.

Focused - Concentrate sharp, intense deep beam for deeper conditions such as bone pathologies, severe calcifications, and deep urological issues.

We offer radial therapy as it is the most common conditions we will see in the office.
