What is shockwave therapy?
Shockwave therapy uses controlled acoustic waves that are applied directly to areas of injured or irritated soft tissue. These waves help stimulate circulation and tissue activity in the treated area and may support the body’s natural recovery process.
What conditions can shockwave therapy help address?
Shockwave therapy may be incorporated into treatment plans for a variety of musculoskeletal concerns, including:
- Plantar fasciitis
- Tendon irritation
- Shoulder discomfort
- Elbow pain
- Hip and knee discomfort
- Muscle tightness
- Chronic soft tissue pain
What can I expect during treatment?
A handheld device is placed over the area being treated and delivers controlled acoustic pulses into the tissue. Treatment sessions are typically brief and require no incisions or anesthesia. Your provider will determine the appropriate intensity and number of sessions based on your condition and treatment goals.
