Shockwave Therapy

---

 Shockwave therapy is a non-surgical procedure used to heal chronic soft tissue conditions and musculoskeletal disorders; it has been proven effective and offered to patients for nearly 15 years. 

The therapy can help those with sports injuries or overuse injuries and aid in healing for those undergoing chiropractic care for various complaints.

 ESWT employs a series of high-energy acoustic waves delivered to the patient’s skin via a transducer with a topical gel as a medium. The pulses of energy delivered to the injured area activate circulation, break down scar tissue, and promote new cell growth. Each session lasts between five and 15 minutes, depending on the patient and their condition.

This new technology for pain management is entirely safe and generally painless and does not necessitate anesthesia or pain medications. Shockwave therapy offers dynamic chronic pain relief and better, faster, and more complete healing.

 Patients may experience temporary swelling and tenderness at the treatment site due to the body’s innate inflammatory response that increases blood flow. This is the body’s healthy healing mechanism and should not be suppressed with anti-inflammatory drugs. 

These side effects are typically very minimal, if felt at all, and in numerous cases, patients report significant pain relief after just one treatment session.
